Hotfix is the hiring system built for agents
October 29, 2026 3 min read
Hotfix is the hiring system built for agents. Ask Claude or ChatGPT to post the job, read the applications, draft the emails and set up the interviews. Hotfix hosts the job and its careers page, takes the applications, sends the mail, runs interview booking and keeps the record.
The split is deliberate. Reading and judging happens in Claude or ChatGPT, on your account, and only when someone on your team asks. Everything else runs on Hotfix's server, the same for every company, with no model reading anything about candidates. Hotfix never scores, ranks, hides or declines anyone.
Three ways in
- Hotfix for Mac. A desktop app that runs Claude or ChatGPT with Hotfix's tools and skills. Conversations stay on your Mac, and scheduled requests run on their own while the app is open, like an evening review of the day's new applicants. Get Hotfix for Mac.
- Claude or ChatGPT. Add Hotfix to the app you already use. You sign in with Hotfix and choose read only or read and write access. Connect Claude or ChatGPT.
- The web. For teammates who won't install anything, and for your phone. The web runs no model: its buttons fill in your email templates.
All three reach the same jobs and the same people, so a candidate never knows which one you use. What Claude or ChatGPT does counts against your Claude or ChatGPT plan, not against Hotfix.
Found by people already looking
Every job you post goes on your careers page and into Hotfix job search, next to 27,511 live tech jobs from 994 companies. People with a matching alert hear when it goes live. Close the job and it leaves search the same day. One snippet puts the same jobs on your own site.
Applications from your careers page and from search land in one list. Everyone confirms their email before an application reaches you, a second application from the same person to the same job is refused, and your knockout questions run as people apply.
What Claude or ChatGPT does
Each review says who the person is, quotes their own words for what the job needs, names the gaps, and says what to ask. Before a review saves, Hotfix checks every quote against what the person sent, and it flags text in a resume or answer addressed to an AI. A review suggests good fit, maybe or not a fit. It never moves anyone, and there is no score.
Ask for a reply, an invite to talk or an offer, and it comes back as a draft you can edit before it goes out. How Hotfix uses AI lists every place a model runs and what never goes to one.
What Hotfix does
- Mail. Email goes out through Hotfix from your company's address on Hotfix, as the person who sent it. Replies come back to Hotfix, show with the application, and reach whoever last wrote. Nobody connects a mailbox.
- Interviews. The candidate picks a time from a link, on the host's own Google Calendar or Microsoft 365, over Meet, Teams, Zoom or phone. Teammates on the panel are invited by email. Anyone still unbooked after two business days gets one reminder.
- Offers. A letter from your offer template with a PDF, accepted by reply or signed online.
- The record. Every application with its answers, the resume as text and as its PDF, notes, emails, interviews and the offer, all in one place.
