Stardex
Unified ATS and CRM for search firms to find candidates, automate recruiting workflows, and manage client relationships.
Product Overview
What is Stardex?
Stardex is a recruiting platform built for executive search and recruitment firms. It combines applicant tracking, client relationship management, outreach, and reporting with semantic search across candidate records, notes, emails, and transcripts. By connecting past interactions with current hiring requirements, Stardex helps recruiters reuse their existing network rather than restart research for every assignment. Built-in agents handle routine administration, while MCP and API access connect recruiting data to external AI tools.
