About Take2 AI

Take2 AI automates phone screens with AI agents.

Take2's AI Interviewers automate the end-to-end screening process - evaluating resumes, conducting phone screens, and scheduling next round interviews with qualified candidates. Our AI Interviewers help reduce overhead costs while boosting speed-to-hire and preventing mis-hires. For candidates, this guarantees they’re never left without a response and delivers a better experience, uncovering skills that go beyond the resume.

We are a team of Stanford GSB alums, backed by SemperVirens & Reach Capital. Our advisory board consists of ex CHROs of F500 companies such as Visa, HP, Disney & Google.
