Human Decisions, Responsible AI
Brainner builds AI for resume screening and candidate evaluation with humans in charge at every critical decision point. This page describes the principles, methodology, and independent audits behind that commitment.
Last updated: July 2026
Our principles
Three commitments that guide how we build.
Human oversight
Recruiters define the criteria and choose which candidates advance. Brainner never makes hiring decisions.
Transparency and Accountability
Every candidate score is broken down into individual criteria with plain-language justifications, backed by independent audits and published reports.
Fairness by design
Structured, job-specific criteria replace opaque scoring, reducing the influence of subjective signals in evaluation.

How it works: Humans lead, AI supports, humans decide.
Brainner's methodology was designed with senior recruiters and talent leaders. It splits screening into three phases.
