Teamtailor readies its ATS for AI on both sides — agent-discoverable career sites, deeper Co-pilot.

Current state
Teamtailor is building around two threads: an AI Co-pilot (custom report charts, saved prompts, three-state screening) and candidate-experience plumbing (WhatsApp messaging, candidate Timeline, skills-library merge). The standout is a quieter move — making every career site discoverable by AI agents via open agentic-web standards. The work spans channel reach, data hygiene, and AI assistance.
Where it's heading
Teamtailor is preparing its ATS for a hiring funnel where both recruiters and candidates lean on AI: Co-pilot takes on more evaluation and reporting work, while career sites are being made legible to candidate-side AI agents. Alongside, it is widening communication channels (now WhatsApp) and tightening candidate data (Timeline, skill merges). The direction is an AI-mediated recruiting workflow on both sides of the table.
Prediction
Expect deeper Co-pilot capability — more evaluation and reporting automation — and further investment in agent-discoverability now that the career-site standards are live. The WhatsApp launch suggests more unified-inbox channels may follow.
