Cykel AI.

The development of Cykel AI began with a vision to simplify complex, repetitive tasks by seamlessly integrating AI agents into companies workforces, to automate and assist with existing workflows and processes. This required a design approach that prioritised clarity, usability, and a smooth user experience, making AI accessible even to those unfamiliar with its capabilities.

From the outset, the focus was on creating agents capable of handling intricate workflows that traditional automation tools couldn't manage. The first of these agents, Lucy, was designed to transform the recruitment industry. Lucy proactively screens applicants CVs as they enters the ATS, instantly matching candidates to job descriptions and scoring candidates respectively. She also autonomously sources relevant prospects and reaches out to them, ensuring the recruitment pipeline is always active. A key challenge was designing an intuitive AI-driven system that allows recruiters to benefit from automation without needing direct interaction with a complex UI.

A core design principle was moving beyond the traditional SaaS platform model by redefining user interaction. Instead of requiring users to navigate a UI manually, Lucy was designed to act as the primary interface, proactively engaging with users through conversation and handling tasks autonomously. By intelligently interacting with APIs and data sources, Lucy can complete actions without requiring constant user input, shifting the role of the UI 
from a control panel to a feedback mechanism that provides transparency and oversight. This evolution positions Lucy not just as an assistant, but as an autonomous team member capable of executing 
complex workflows with minimal intervention.

The result is an AI agent that streamlines hiring while requiring minimal user intervention. Lucy is just the first of many AI agents. Sales and Research agents are already in progress, broadening Cykel’s impact and reinforcing its commitment to AI-driven efficiency.

Currently, efforts are focused on developing the feature roadmap, incorporating both user feedback and innovative ideas to further enhance the platform's capabilities and user experience.
