PhoneScreen MCP¶
Remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP, account auth) - PhoneScreen's server lets an assistant run hiring from a chat. It drafts roles from a job post, scores stacks of resumes, invites candidates to phone screens in 34 languages, places AI screening calls on demand, reads back every score, and checks references. The assistant reports; the hiring team decides.

Why This Matters for Operators¶
Hiring is a backlog problem: resumes pile up, screens wait on calendars, and references rarely get called. PhoneScreen's mechanism is to make the pipeline conversational: paste a job post and it drafts the role and screening questions; attach resumes ten at a time and each returns a fit score with reasons; candidates screen 24/7 in their own time, and references are texted and called automatically with the answers scored.
For founders and hiring managers, that turns days of coordination into a single thread where the assistant surfaces the strongest candidates first, with reasoning, flags and transcripts attached. Decisions stay with the human; the legwork does not.
The key advantage is an end-to-end screening pipeline that runs from a chat and reports back scored, reasoned results.

Business Relevance¶
- Founders hiring their first team can screen a stack of resumes in one prompt.
- Recruiters can invite, screen and shortlist without leaving the assistant.
- Ops and HR leads get reference checks that actually happen, scored and logged.
- Distributed teams can screen candidates 24/7 in 34 languages.
- Managers can compare candidates on consistent fit scores rather than gut feel.
Integration with CorpusIQ¶
PhoneScreen is the people layer beside CorpusIQ's business data. Where CorpusIQ's Stripe and GA4 connectors show revenue and pipeline, PhoneScreen covers the hiring side of growth, so an assistant can answer "can we staff this expansion?" by pairing headcount pipeline with revenue run-rate.
A composed workflow: read monthly revenue and pipeline from CorpusIQ connectors, ask PhoneScreen for the active candidate pipeline and scores, then have the assistant draft a hiring plan tied to the growth numbers. CorpusIQ reads the business; PhoneScreen reads the team being built around it.
Limitations¶
- Requires a PhoneScreen account and plan.
- Immediate AI calling is limited to US and Canada numbers where offered.
- Phone screens and reference checks are automated, so review transcripts before deciding.
- Hosted and proprietary; no self-hosting.
- Vertical scope is hiring; not a general HRIS.
