Every consultant on your bench, in front of the right vendors every day.

Your bench costs money every day a consultant isn't placed. Most of the work between a requirement and a submission follows rules — building hotlists, matching skills, chasing vendor replies, re-typing rate confirmations — and a tool can do it. Your bench-sales team spends the day on calls instead.

Bench Desk on synthetic data — 40 consultants, 30 vendors, one morning's hotlists and replies.Open Bench Desk

Where the hours go

  • Building the day's hotlists by hand, one skill cluster at a time.
  • Submitting a consultant to a vendor portal twice, or not at all, when the portal times out.
  • Reading rate confirmations and right-to-represent emails and typing them into the ATS.
  • Sorting vendor replies to find the few that need an answer today.
  • Finding out at month end what the bench actually cost.

What we've built for IT staffing

Bench Desk on a wide screen: a dark sidebar with Bench, Hotlists, Requirements, Submissions, Vendor replies, Rate confirmations and Owner view; the top bar names the fictional firm with a Synthetic data badge and the signed-in recruiter, Anusha Reddy. The Bench screen shows four figures (40 consultants, 30 vendors, 8 hotlists ready, vendor replies) above a list of consultants with skills, work authorisation, days on the bench, rate floor, bench cost a day and status, longest waiting first.Real screen

RTR & Duplicate Guard on a wide screen, at the top of Check before submit: a dark sidebar with Check before submit, Submissions, RTR ledger, Possible duplicates, Consultants and Retention; the top bar names the fictional firm Banjara Demo Tech LLC with a Synthetic data badge and the signed-in recruiter, Anusha Reddy. Under the heading and its intro, the date and the rights to represent on file. On the left, a new submission form with a consultant, a requirement and a rate of $95.00 an hour, above the rights to represent waiting to go out. On the right, the check's answer: Green, Clear to submit, with a checklist saying a right-to-represent covers this requirement and rate and that there is no earlier submission to this end client, and a card to submit the consultant to Summit Demo Energy with the Submit button.Real screen

RTR & Duplicate Guard

IT staffing

Checks, before you submit, that the consultant hasn't already gone to that end client and that a right-to-represent covers this exact requirement and rate.

Bench P&L Radar on a wide screen: a dark sidebar with Bench cost, Consultants, Decisions, Weekly report and Placement estimates; the top bar names the fictional firm, Banjara Demo Tech LLC, with a Synthetic data badge and the signed-in owner, Ramesh Chowdary. The Bench cost screen says the estimates come from the model trained on 28 September 2026, then shows four figures: bench cost today $8,040 from 28 consultants with a pay rate, month to date $17,520, last week $42,330, and 33 on the bench. A caution notice says 5 consultants are left out of every total because no pay rate is on file, and names them. Below starts a chart of daily bench cost over the last 13 weeks.Real screen

What else is possible

We haven't built these, but we would, for the right firm:

  • A timesheet-to-invoice check that catches unbilled hours before the month closes.
  • A skills view that shows which certifications your bench is missing against this month's requirements.

Where we'd tell you not to use AI

Deciding who gets rejected. Our tools rank and draft; a recruiter approves every submission. A hotlist doesn't need a language model either — it's a query and a template, and we build it that way.

The rules you work under

If you place candidates with EU clients, the EU AI Act treats AI used for recruitment and candidate selection as high-risk, with obligations from 2 December 2027. Some US jurisdictions, including New York City, regulate automated tools used in hiring decisions. India's DPDP Act covers the candidate data your Hyderabad team handles, with full obligations from 13 May 2027. Our tools never make a hiring decision on their own, and they record who approved each submission.
