Meet Vega, Lyra’s AI agent. HR recruitment, finally simple.
The same pipeline, in three steps you can open.
Just Lyra's AI agent “VEGA” sources from its own marketplace of women who trained on AI with us, so skills are verified, not claimed. Screening and scoring run against one published fairness standard, drawn from EU AI Act bias-auditing work. The whole pipeline runs inside Slack, and every shortlist arrives with the reasoning attached.
Intake, sourcing and screening
You describe the role in Slack and get a ranked shortlist back. Names come first from the Lyra marketplace, women who trained on AI with us, so their skills are verified rather than asserted, and every name arrives with the reason it is on the list.
Sourcing, 4 names

What Lyra does
A reason attached to every name
Lyra scores each candidate on four axes and writes the reasoning in plain language, with a link to the evidence.
The problem
Shortlists you cannot defend
Ask why this candidate and not that one, and the honest answer is a keyword match and a gut feel.
What Lyra does
A shortlist that shows its work
Up to ten ranked names, each with experience, soft skills, cultural fit and AI literacy laid out, so you can defend the call in the debrief.
The problem
Context lost at every handoff
The brief, the sourcing notes, the interview feedback. Each stage starts from scratch and detail leaks out.
What Lyra does
One record, start to finish
Brief, shortlist, interview prep and scoring live on a single candidate record that every stage reads and adds to.
The problem
Screening that drifts
Two managers screen the same role against different bars on different days, and nobody notices.
What Lyra does
One rubric, applied the same way
Every candidate is measured against the same four axes drawn from the role brief, so the bar does not move between reviews.
The problem
Bias you cannot see
Informal screening hides the pattern in who gets advanced until it is a headline or a legal problem.
What Lyra does
Auditable against a published standard
Scoring is logged and measured against one published fairness standard, drawing on EU AI Act bias-auditing work, so the pipeline can be reviewed.
One pipeline, seen from every side.
Find talent, prep interviews and generate reports just by typing.
Source, shortlist and score candidates straight from Lyra's own dashboard. Nothing to install on your side.

The manifesto
The job market you've been waiting for.
You don't need another platform ranking you on keywords. You need a system that reads what you've actually done. The projects shipped, the teams led, the outcomes proven. And tells you, in plain language, which roles fit and which AI skills will get you the rest.
That's Lyra. Real matches. Four visible scores. A short course tied to every gap. Your career, on your terms, with AI working for you instead of against you.
How it works
Three steps. Zero guesswork.
Like dating apps for jobs, but the algorithm shows its working. You see what it sees, and you can change the score.

On your side
The algorithm is yours to read.
Most job platforms keep the scoring hidden. You guess, they decide. Lyra flips that. You read every score, you see the reasoning, and you choose what to improve next.

Every match comes with the four scores and a plain-English paragraph behind each one. No mystery percentage, no black box.
Principle 02
Read what the algorithm read
Every claim Lyra makes about you points back to the receipt. The project, the artefact, the role. You can correct anything, anytime.
Principle 03
Improve what you choose to improve
Want a senior ML role? Lyra shows the exact skills you're missing and a course that closes the gap. Your career moves the way you choose.
Principle 04
Anonymous until you say otherwise
Your profile is anonymous-by-default. Reveal yourself when you're ready to interview. Delete everything in one click.
Upskill in-platform
Watch your match climb live.
Every role tells you which skills you're missing and offers a short course tied to that exact requirement. Finish it, your score updates the same day.
