Skima AI integrates with Lever to screen resumes, rank candidates, rediscover past applicants, detect bot applicants and resume fraud, and conduct AI video interviews. No data migration required.
Five AI recruiting tools in one Lever integration
Authenticate once through the Lever API. Every AI capability below reads from Lever and writes results back to the opportunity without migrating ATS data. No second login. No parallel platform.
Talent rediscovery
Skima AI uses semantic candidate matching and surfaces past applicants from your Lever database when a new posting opens. Explainable scores and shortlists write back to the opportunity inside Lever.
Rediscovery →Candidate fraud detection
Skima AI detects bot applicants, templated and AI-generated resumes, and resume discrepancies before the Lever interview stage. Fraud risk scores and anomaly signals write back to the opportunity. Skima AI never auto-rejects.
Fraud Detection →AI video interviewer
Automated AI interviews that launch the moment a candidate reaches a Lever stage you define. Structured summary, transcript, and scores against your job criteria write back to the opportunity.
AI Interviewer →Explainable AI matching
Skima AI provides evidence behind every match score: which skills aligned, which experience transferred, which criteria the candidate met or missed. Explainable AI your team can audit.
Explainable Matching →AI resume screening
Automated resume screening that batch processes every incoming application in Lever, ranks & sorts candidates by fit, and highlights top candidates. Built for high volume recruitment without manual review time.
AI Screening →Why Lever teams choose Skima AI integrations
Skima AI is built for Lever's opportunity-based pipeline. Every screening score, match explanation, and fraud rating writes back as structured data.
Automated AI recruiting inside Lever
Lever structures your hiring, while Skima AI adds automated resume screening, fraud detection, and candidate rediscovery. Lever's built-in Talent Fit scores candidate matches; it does not batch-screen every incoming application.
Reduces manual resume review time
Skima AI automatically screens and shortlists every incoming Lever application. Recruiters review ranked candidates, not raw stacks. Manual resume review time is cut in half.
Blocks bot applicants before interviews
Skima AI detects bot applicants, AI-generated resumes, and resume discrepancies before they reach your interview stage. Fraud risk writes back to the opportunity.
Explainable AI for every hiring decision
Every match score includes the evidence behind it: which skills aligned, which experience transferred. Explainable AI your team can audit and act on.
Reduces time-to-hire across every role
Automated screening and AI candidate matching reduce recruiter review time at every stage. Teams move from application to interview faster, with fewer manual reviews along the way.
Surfaces candidates already in your ATS
Skima AI scans your full Lever candidate database and surfaces past applicants who match current open roles. Talent already in your ATS database, found automatically.

Does Skima AI help to rediscover candidates already in my Lever ATS database?
Yes, Skima AI sources candidates from your Lever candidate database, including archived opportunities and candidates who didn't advance in previous roles. When a new posting opens, Skima AI uses semantic matching to surface past applicants who fit, ranked with explainable scores. Results write back to the opportunity inside Lever before your team sources externally.
Does Skima AI run automated AI interviews inside Lever?

Which AI screening solutions offer explainable AI for hiring decisions?
Skima AI offers explainable AI matching for Lever. Every match score includes the reasoning: which skills aligned, which experience transferred, which criteria the candidate met or missed. This differs from black-box scoring tools that return a number without evidence. Explainable AI for hiring decisions means your team can audit every recommendation before acting on it.
What hiring tools identify resume discrepancies before background checks?
Skima AI detects resume discrepancies at the application stage, before background checks run. This includes inconsistencies between claimed employment history, qualifications, and verifiable signals. Fraud risk scores write back to the opportunity in Lever so recruiters can investigate or reject before the candidate reaches an interview or offer stage.

Skima AI reads from your Lever instance via the Lever API. Candidate data stays in Lever. Skima AI does not copy it to a separate database, does not use it to train AI models, and does not require data migration. The connection is SOC 2 Type II certified, GDPR compliant, and encrypted at rest and in transit.
