Hi everyone! I’m new to this community but have been using Vercel and NextJS for a couple of years now—they’re my go-to tools for most projects.
I’m excited to share a project I’ve been working on: PhoneScreen.AI, a platform that fully automates the candidate screening process using conversational AI.
Tech Stack:
- NextJS
- Shadcn UI
- Neon Hosted Postgres DB with Prisma ORM
- Bland.AI (Conversational AI backend)
- Framer for the homepage
If you’re curious, here’s a short demo video:

Why PhoneScreen.AI?
Screening candidates is a critical yet time-consuming step in the hiring process. Typically, a 15-30 minute call with a recruiter serves as a quality filter before candidates proceed to interviews. But what if this step could be fully automated?
With PhoneScreen.AI, companies can upload a job post, and our AI parses it to generate relevant screening questions. The AI agent then calls candidates at their convenience—24/7. After the call, the entire conversation is transcribed and scored, with reasoning provided for each score.
The Benefits:
- Time-saving: No more back-and-forth scheduling for phone screens.
- Cost-effective: Traditional phone screens can cost around $40 each. PhoneScreen.AI reduces this to just $3 per completed screen, allowing you to screen 10x more candidates at the same cost.
- Enhanced candidate experience: By lowering the barrier to entry, such as eliminating the need for a resume or lengthy application before screening, companies can attract more talent who might otherwise pass on the opportunity.
This cost reduction opens the door to making the phone screen the first step in the hiring process, even before a resume is submitted. It could fundamentally change how we approach early-stage recruiting, making it easier to find hidden talent.
