Kalent integrates with Zoho Recruit: the AI sourcing that fills your pipeline

Kalent is the sourcing tool that connects to Zoho Recruit. Search 200 million profiles in plain language, reach candidates on LinkedIn, email and WhatsApp, and push qualified people straight into Zoho Recruit.

What it changes

What this integration changes day to day

Zoho Recruit is the recruiting module of the Zoho suite, chosen by agencies and in-house teams that want everything under one subscription at a low price per seat. Breadth is the selling point, and depth on outbound sourcing is where it stops.

No more manual sourcing

Kalent searches 200 million profiles in plain language and returns a qualified shortlist, without hours of Boolean strings on LinkedIn.

Candidates arrive enriched

Kalent retrieves on average 80% of mobile numbers and 60% of personal emails on each sourced profile. Every candidate pushed is ready to be contacted.

No double entry

Qualified candidates appear in your pipeline under the rules you define. Nothing is copied by hand, nothing lives in a spreadsheet.

Complementarity

What Kalent does, what Zoho Recruit does

Two situations

When this pairing changes the outcome

You standardised on one suite and sourcing is the gap

Everything else is in Zoho, and sourcing still happens in browser tabs and spreadsheets. Kalent closes that loop and pushes into Zoho Recruit so the record stays in the system you chose.

Cost per hire is the number your team is judged on

Job board spend rises with every role that stays open. Sourcing directly changes the equation, because you pay for the search and not for the exposure.

What does Kalent actually save you?

Time on finding the right profiles. The Kalent agent widens the search beyond what you managed to put into words, applies qualification criteria rather than filters, then ranks profiles and writes the reason for each match next to it. You read twenty ranked profiles instead of sifting five hundred. And they land in Zoho Recruit with a verified mobile number and personal email, ready to contact.
