All Updates
TL;DR
Desks v2 is the headline — a redesigned interface with sub-niche filter chips, AI-suggested sub-niches, feed cards, and a Companies table with sub-niche columns and bulk actions. You can merge two desks into one, and a new Review my desk button reads your desk’s setup and hands back specific fixes you can apply in one tap.
The sidebar collapses to nine core items grouped under Find and Reach, with footer shortcuts. Old bookmarks still work — they redirect automatically. “Pipeline” is now “Leads”.
Float anchors a campaign to a specific candidate. The emails pitch an anonymised profile, and a tracked link reveals the full candidate when the client clicks — so you learn who is actually buying before the name is in the market.
A new Library page collects every deliverable you have generated, and People and Company pages gain a Documents tab.
Three AI desk actions now cost credits: Review my desk 2 cr, suggest sub-niches 1 cr, tidy sub-niches 1 cr. Tagging companies yourself stays free.
Desks v2
- Redesigned desk interface — new header, feed cards, and a cleaner layout throughout.
- Sub-niche filter chips — split a desk into the segments you actually recruit and filter the whole page to one of them with a click.
- AI-suggested sub-niches — Kolvera proposes sub-niche categories for a desk and classifies your untagged companies against them. Suggestions only ever add; an existing sub-niche is never overwritten.
- Tidy sub-niches — because suggestions only add, a desk can accrete near-duplicate chips. The tidy tool proposes a keep/merge/drop plan, you accept the lines you agree with, and only those are applied.
- Manual sub-niche classification — assign or change a company’s sub-niche individually or with the Companies-table bulk action. Anything you set by hand sticks: AI will not reclassify it.
- Review my desk — an empty board is usually a misconfigured desk rather than a quiet market. This reads your desk’s real settings and results and returns plain-language findings, most with a button that applies the fix.
- Merge desks — fold one desk into another, combining companies, prospects and settings.
- Smart “Find more companies” — on a desk that already has companies this expands from what you have rather than starting from scratch.
- Reports & Research in the header — Deep Research runs and intelligence reports are now at the top of the desk instead of buried in a sub-menu.
A nine-screen app
- Streamlined sidebar — nine core items grouped under Find and Reach, with Library, Help & Guides and What’s New in the footer. Less to scan, faster to move.
- “Pipeline” is now “Leads” — the label for your job board results changes across the platform.
- Old bookmarks still work — previous routes redirect automatically to their new locations.
Float campaigns
- Anchored to one candidate — a Float campaign markets a specific person to every employer who would want them, rather than selling your service in general.
- Anonymous until the reveal — the sequence runs tease, then proof, then reveal across three to five touches spread over about a fortnight. No name in the first email.
- A tracked link does the qualifying — clients who want to know more click through to the full candidate, so a click tells you who is genuinely interested before the name is in the market.
- One click from a Reverse Market Profile — a “Build Float campaign” button creates the campaign in one step.
- Cleaner campaign creation — a single Touches control and contextual anchor pickers.
Library & Documents
- Deliverable index — a new Library page collects every deliverable you have generated: float profiles, intelligence reports, research, e-sign documents, reference reports and form submissions.
- Documents tabs — People and Company pages now show a Documents tab, so what you last sent a client is on their record rather than in your sent items.
Desks: signals, locations and boards
- Location picker — the New Desk wizard asks where your desk operates, and every scan stays inside it. A Sydney desk no longer fills up with roles from London.
- Boards matched to your market — desks scoped to Australia or New Zealand scan SEEK, UK desks scan Reed, and LinkedIn and Indeed scope to your chosen country.
- Honest signal dating — signals read “posted 3w ago” alongside a liveness verdict of confirmed, unconfirmed or expired, instead of implying every role is fresh. A role open for weeks is a company struggling to fill it, which is a signal in itself.
- A cleaner board — cards the desk filed for you say Added automatically; the actions are plainly Hide and Not relevant. Hide keeps a company mapped but off your board, Remove unlinks it. Cards and Discovery both paginate, and a Cards/Table toggle on the Companies tab remembers your preference.
- Clickable source chips — SEEK, Indeed and LinkedIn chips on signal cards link to the original job ad.
Campaigns & People
- Signal-first personalisation — campaign emails reference live hiring signals, so your outreach is specific to what a company is doing right now.
-
Trigger variables — a labelled per-campaign toggle, token chips you click to insert, blank-variable warnings on save, and fallback syntax (
{{variable|fallback text}}) so a missing field never produces an empty sentence. - Sender footer is opt-in — it now defaults to off. Enable it in Campaign Settings if you want your business name and address appended.
- Email validity and unsubscribe chips on People — every contact row shows verified, invalid or unknown at a glance, and anyone who has opted out carries an unsubscribed badge so they are not re-enrolled by accident.
Onboarding & setup
- A working desk before you reach the dashboard — the onboarding wizard now runs the full New Desk flow during signup, with Deep Research included at no credit cost, plus a business-context picker and progress driven by real backend state.
- Free ABN & company lookup — a no-login tool at /tools/company-lookup looks up any Australian company by name or ABN.
- Zero-result explanations — when a scan returns nothing, Scrape History now tells you why (no matching roles, location mismatch, keyword too narrow) instead of just showing a zero.
- Scheduled SEEK scans cover three days, not seven — a routine scan returns fewer jobs than it used to. Same board, shorter window; nothing is missed as long as your scans run daily. Widen it on the scrape config if you want a bigger sweep.
Credits: three AI desk actions now cost
- Review my desk — 2 credits per review, charged only when a review completes. A failed review is not charged. Applying the fixes it suggests is free unless the fix is itself a paid action, in which case it is priced normally and confirmed first.
- Suggest sub-niches — 1 credit, charged only when suggestions come back. This was free until now.
- Tidy sub-niches — 1 credit for the plan, charged only when a usable one is produced. Applying an accepted plan is free, and “already tidy” costs nothing. This was also free until now.
- Tagging sub-niches yourself is still free — individually or via the bulk action — as is adding, renaming and retiring the chips, and filtering by them.
- Why — each of these makes an AI call that costs us real money per run, and we would rather price them honestly than fold the cost into everyone’s plan. The full table is in the credits guide.
Numbers that moved
- Your campaign stats now mean one thing across every screen — the campaign page, the campaign list, your dashboard and the assistant each used to count the same word its own way. No data changed; the maths did, and the new maths is the honest version.
- Open and click rates go down — they used to count every open, so one prospect reopening an email four times counted four times, which is how a rate could read over 100%. They now count opened emails.
- Reply rates go up — on your dashboard and in the assistant they used to divide replies by every email sent, so adding a follow-up halved your reply rate even though the same people replied. They now divide by the people you actually reached.
- Bounce rate on the campaign page counts contacts you actually reached — not everyone enrolled. Expect a slight rise on campaigns still working through their queue.
- Replies we already knew about are no longer hidden — a campaign could show fewer replies than we had on record. The campaign page, list and dashboard now all show the complete count.
- One exception, stated plainly — the reply rate on the Replies card at the top of the campaign list is a different measurement and stays that way: a 30-day figure across your whole desk, counting every reply including out-of-office. It is not the campaign reply rate and will not match it.
