Profile Summary

MAI Job is a next-generation AI recruitment platform built specifically for South Africa. Where traditional job boards show you a list of jobs, MAI Job acts as a complete career accelerator — rebuilding CVs, running AI-powered audio interviews, and helping employers find people who already have CV and interview signals in one place.

No subscription for job seekers — uploads, matching, and unlimited text interviews are included. Voice interviews and the AI CV rebuild use credits (bundles optional). Employers fund access to tools and candidate pipelines so we can keep the core free tier useful.

What Makes Us Different
Artificial Intelligence
Frontier models, sensibly scoped
Modern large‑language models and speech tools analyse your CV, score answers, and generate coaching — constrained to hiring workflows you control.
Voice Technology
It Hears and Understands You
Speak naturally into your phone. Our AI listens to your answers, understands what you're saying, and gives you real feedback — just like practicing with a coach.
Your Data
Private by default.
Your CV and uploads stay with your account. Share links and recruiter access follow the permissions inside the product — nothing is monetised externally without clear consent flows.
How We Work
Fast. Easy. No native app.
Open your browser on any halfway decent phone connection, upload your CV, and practise. Downloads optional; onboarding is deliberately short.
Paying Employers
Simple Payments in Rands
Employers can pay plans through PayFast where enabled. Credits for premium candidate tools are labelled clearly on Pricing — no surprises on invoices.
Job Matching
In-app rankings first
We surface AI-ranked roles on your dashboard. Email or priority alerting depends on the plan tier you pick — described on Pricing.

RE: Application to become your AI recruitment platform
Dear South Africa,

I am writing to formally apply for the position of your AI recruitment platform.

With headline unemployment roughly one‑third of South Africa's labour force under official Stats SA surveys — and stacks of résumés still skim‑read — I believe I am uniquely positioned to help. I rebuild CVs that never got read. I interview candidates that never got a chance. I match people to employers who are already looking — without a job‑seeker subscription fee — optional credits only if you choose premium extras.

Employers pay. Candidates win. South Africa gets back to work.

I am immediately available, fully deployed, and ready to help you start sharpening your CV in a short guided session — on 4G, in-browser, without a heavyweight install. I speak your language — and we're expanding beyond English as fast as responsibly possible.

I look forward to placing you.
Yours sincerely,
MAI.Job
