After a period of development in stealth mode, Dutch technology company 10x has officially launched its AI Agent Recruiter and Interviewer. The solution is designed to accelerate and humanize the hiring process by automating the initial screening phase, while also helping companies manage the increasing volume of AI-generated applications. The launch addresses critical market challenges, including recruiter burnout from manual screening and the need for fairer, more efficient candidate assessment.
Dutch company 10x has launched an AI Agent Recruiter after a stealth development period.
The AI conducts fully automated initial video interviews in over 70 languages.
Recruiters using the tool save 4 to 6 hours per day on screening tasks.
80% of candidates complete their AI interview within three days, speeding up hiring.
The platform is built in the Netherlands with a focus on EU privacy laws and fairness-by-design.
It helps combat the growing issue of AI-generated fake applications and candidate profiles.
The 10x AI Recruiter is positioned as a tool that augments human recruiters rather than replacing them. It conducts the initial video screening and conversation automatically, allowing candidates to interview 24/7; data shows 67% of interviews are completed outside standard office hours. Recruiters receive transparent transcripts, scored answers with reasoning, and video clips, enabling them to make more informed decisions faster. The technology is available as a standalone application or can be integrated with existing Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to fit seamlessly into established hiring workflows.
The launch is strategically timed as employers face a flood of AI-generated resumes and synthetic candidate profiles. The platform is built with a core emphasis on compliance and reducing bias, addressing study findings that show high rates of age, gender, and ethnicity discrimination in traditional application reviews. By being built in the Netherlands, 10x ensures its technology adheres to strict European privacy laws and is architected with fairness as a foundational principle. Early adopters report a 75% faster screening process and significant cost savings, freeing up human recruiters to focus on building meaningful connections with top-tier candidates.
10x was founded by Angelique Schouten, former board member of one of the world’s first cloud-native core banking platforms, Ohpen, and Anton Zhelyazkov, former lead software engineer at the same company. 10x combines agentic innovation with human-centered recruitment, under the motto:
“AI to clear the path. Humans to feel the spark.” Companies such as Dutch-founded international IT consultancy Plat4Mation, automotive components multinational Metalsa, risk and compliance talent development firm Risketeers, and the Dutch Staffing Group are among the early adopters of the 10x AI Recruiter Agents. Investors include former founders and executives of Ohpen, Adyen, Brand New Day, and EuroRijn.
