Text Expander for Recruiting — Faster Outreach, More Hires

Recruiters send hundreds of messages a week — outreach, interview invites, scheduling, rejections, offers. Most of it is the same message repeated. Lightning Assist lets you expand any of those from a short shortcut, in every tool you use, with AI-powered personalisation built in.

Short Answer

Lightning Assist is a practical text expander for recruiters: LinkedIn outreach, interview invitations, rejection emails, and ATS candidate notes expand from short triggers in Greenhouse, Lever, or any browser-based tool, with AI-powered personalisation that tailors the same template to each candidate without leaving the platform.
