Responsible AI at KitaHQ
KitaHQ uses AI to help hiring teams organize and review job-related candidate information. Our approach is to make the purpose, inputs, outputs, limitations and human responsibilities clear so that AI supports, rather than replaces, accountable hiring decisions.

What KitaHQ's AI Does
Depending on the workflow configured by the employer, KitaHQ can:
Transcribe candidate video or audio responses.
Evaluate the content of candidate answers against recruiter-configured, job-related criteria.
Generate criteria-alignment scores, criteria-alignment rankings, summaries, assessment notes and reports.
Support CV screening against employer-defined requirements.
Support employer-configured workflow actions, including invitations, reminders, manager-interview invitations or review requests when configured conditions are met.
KitaHQ can conduct two-way AI video interviews. The AI interviewer uses the employer’s core question framework and may ask adaptive follow-up questions based on the content or depth of an answer.
Follow-up questions may vary, while recruiter-configured, job-related criteria structure the assessment. The employer determines the role, criteria, questions, document requirements, workflow settings and people who can review the results.

What the Outputs Mean
Scores and rankings indicate alignment with the criteria configured for a particular role.
Criteria-alignment scores and criteria-alignment rankings indicate alignment with the criteria configured for a particular role. They are decision-support information for recruiters and hiring managers, not predictions of future job performance or final hiring decisions. Use these outputs as:
Indicators of alignment with job-related criteria.
Decision-support information alongside relevant candidate evidence.
Input for appropriate recruiter review.
One part of the employer’s progression and hiring process.
The employer controls the criteria and workflow rules that may create specified invitations, reminders or review requests and remains responsible for their effects.
KitaHQ does not automatically reject candidates. An authorised recruiter must confirm any rejection or other adverse progression decision after reviewing relevant candidate evidence.

Responsibilities in Practice
Scores and rankings indicate alignment with the criteria configured for a particular role.
KitaHQ
KitaHQ is responsible for providing the technology, explaining its intended use and limitations, protecting information within its control, and fulfilling duties that apply to its role. Customers may request available product, data-flow and limitation documentation to support their assessments.
Employers
Employers are responsible for lawful and job-related criteria, candidate notices, configuration, access permissions, recruiter review and final employment decisions.
Employers should provide accommodations or alternative processes where required by applicable law or appropriate to their hiring process, and complete local impact or bias assessments where required. These employer responsibilities operate alongside KitaHQ’s duties for the technology and processing within its control.

Candidates
Candidates can support an effective review by providing accurate, relevant information and answering in their own words. Unless the employer expressly permits it, candidates should not use another person, prepared scripts or generative AI to create or supply interview answers.
Approved accessibility assistance should not be treated as prohibited assistance. Candidates can contact the hiring employer about permitted assistance, accommodations, alternative assessment routes, application status or hiring decisions.

Country-Specific Responsible AI Information
The sections below explain how confirmed KitaHQ practices relate to selected laws and frameworks. Employers remain responsible for determining which obligations apply to their recruitment process and configuration.

United States
Responsible AI expectations in the United States combine federal employment and civil-rights law with state and local AI requirements.

KitaHQ supports employer governance through AI-use transparency, recruiter review and identifiable assessment and workflow records designed to help employers prepare for applicable obligations under Colorado’s Automated Decision-Making Technology Act. Employers remain responsible for determining applicability and providing any required interaction notice, adverse-outcome explanation, access or correction process, meaningful human review and reconsideration.
Other rules may impose different duties. Where the Illinois Artificial Intelligence Video Interview Act applies, the hiring employer is responsible for the required AI-use explanation, candidate consent, sharing and deletion requirements and any applicable sole-reliance reporting.
KitaHQ supports these responsibilities through candidate-facing AI-use information, a recorded checkbox selection, authorised access controls and its documented data-handling process.

United Kingdom
UK guidance for responsible AI in recruitment emphasizes safety, transparency, fairness, accountability, contestability and appropriate human involvement. KitaHQ explains what its AI does and its relevant limitations, enables recruiters to inspect and disregard AI-assisted assessments, makes employer-controlled workflow automation and final hiring accountability clear, and does not use candidate data to train KitaHQ or third-party AI models.
KitaHQ supports meaningful human review by allowing authorised recruiters to inspect relevant candidate evidence, review the AI-assisted assessment and disregard it. The assessment is decision-support information rather than a prediction of future job performance. Where a significant decision is based solely on automated processing, the employer must provide applicable safeguards, including clear information, a route to make representations or challenge the outcome, and meaningful human intervention.
