FORMA. / CANDIDATE INTELLIGENCE

Candidate intelligence grounded in documented evidence.

Analyze candidate documents, calculate transparent alignment signals, rank through a fixed formula, and inspect the source behind every result.

Stored signals + source evidence

Scores and evidence are specific to your analysis.

01 / THE PROBLEM

Keywords flatten the evidence.

A term can be present without showing depth, ownership, or context. Forma. keeps the documented source attached to every signal so a shortlist can be inspected—not merely accepted.

TERM FOUNDPostgreSQL

Presence alone cannot explain where, how, or at what depth it was used.

DOCUMENTED EVIDENCETerm → context → source

02 / DOCUMENT INTELLIGENCE

Different files. One evidence model.

Forma. preserves the role and every candidate document, then applies the extraction path each format actually needs. OCR appears only when a scanned PDF requires it.

03 / DETERMINISTIC RANKING

A score you can take apart.

Three persisted signals combine through fixed weights. AI can retrieve and explain the evidence; it does not independently choose the candidate order.

04 / CANDIDATE EVIDENCE

The shortlist shows its work.

Select a requirement and follow the exact trail through match type, section, page, filename, and source excerpt. “Not evidenced” describes the documents—not the person.

01 / REQUIREMENTStart with the job description.
EVIDENCE TRAIL
  1. 02 / EVIDENCEInspect the supporting passage.

    Read what is documented and how it relates to the requirement.

  2. 03 / SOURCEReturn to the original document.

    Keep the filename and candidate association within the active analysis.

  3. 04 / PROVENANCELocate the evidence.

    Inspect the match type, source section, and page where available.

05 / HIRING CONTEXT

Recruiter context becomes reviewable signals.

Context is proposed, reviewed, and approved before it can influence an evaluation.

06 / COMPARE

Compare on the same evidence frame.

Candidate comparison stays tied to the same requirements, signals, and documented sources.

07 / ASK FORMA.

Ask the result. Follow the source.

Retrieval is bounded to the role and indexed candidate documents. Answers expose their sources, while the deterministic ranking remains unchanged.

EXAMPLE QUESTIONWhy is the first candidate ranked above the second?
ANSWER STRUCTURE

An explanation of stored ranking signals, with the retrieved evidence available for inspection.

  • Current analysis
  • Actual retrieved sources
  • Ranking unchanged
08 / PRIVACY & CONTROL

Evidence is useful only when it stays controlled.

Forma. communicates implemented boundaries without invented certifications or security claims.

Security details Ranking method
01Private documents

Candidate files remain private objects and are accessed through scoped server paths.

02Analysis isolation

Authenticated access and ownership checks keep analyses separated.

03Bounded retrieval

Ask Forma. retrieves only from the active role and indexed analysis documents.

09 / START WITH THE DOCUMENTS

Build a shortlist you can explain.

One role. Every candidate document. A transparent rank with its evidence still attached.
