Candidate rediscovery and AI matching platforms add this scoring capability without replacing your ATS. Platforms like Skima AI connect through your ATS's own API, read candidate and job data, then write match scores, tags, or notes back into the same system, so your ATS remains the system of record.
This works because the platform does not duplicate or migrate your data. It pulls candidate profiles and job requirements, scores each match, and syncs results back as custom fields or notes inside your existing ATS. Recruiters keep working inside the tool they already use, while gaining a match score and reasoning behind each result.
Before adopting any tool, confirm the platform writes results back into your ATS rather than requiring your team to check a separate dashboard for scores.
