Outreach
Run personalized email campaigns and let the recruiting agent handle replies.
Outreach turns a shortlist into conversations. Superposition runs personalized, multi-step email campaigns and the recruiting agent manages the replies.
Campaign types
- Headhunting: outbound sequences to sourced candidates. Personalized to each candidate and the role, with AI-optimized follow-up cadence.
- Inbound scheduling: interview-request emails for applicants, triggered as they move into interviewing.
What makes the outreach personal
The agent doesn't send generic recruiter spam. It writes the kind of email a strong engineer remembers, grounded in real context about your company and the candidate:
- a one-line founder origin story,
- your most notable investors,
- a one-line description of what you do,
- two examples of traction, with real numbers,
- what this person would build, and the tools they'd build it with, and
- a subject line written as a hook, tuned to the candidate.
Because each email is specific rather than templated, Superposition sees an interested response rate around 3x a typical recruiter's baseline. That reaches the senior talent who delete generic outreach on sight.
Review First vs. Full Auto
Each role controls how candidates reach outreach:
| Mode | Behavior | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| Review First | You approve each candidate before the first email | Calibrating a new role; sensitive searches |
| Full Auto | Eligible candidates enroll automatically | A role you trust and want to run hands-off |
You can switch modes at any time. Many teams start in Review First and move to Full Auto once they trust the fit on a role.
How replies are handled
The recruiting agent watches every thread and acts:
- Interested → moves the candidate toward scheduling (and loops you in when useful).
- Not interested → logs the reason and stops the sequence.
- No reply → follows the cadence, then stops.
Replies and notable events surface in Slack so your team stays in the loop without watching inboxes.
Sending email
Outreach sends from a connected sender. Connect a mailbox or use managed delivery. See Email integration.
Candidates who bounce, unsubscribe, or ask not to be contacted are suppressed automatically and won't be emailed again.
