Solution

The AI recruiting platform designed around the European hiring decision

Hire well, with privacy, fairness, explainability, and human control built in for GDPR, Works Council context, EU AI Act expectations, and bilingual operations — not bolted on afterward.

US-first ATS products often treat compliance as an add-on translated late. Virkla is designed around the European hiring decision from the start — human-controlled AI, privacy-aware data handling, and explainable rankings — so speed and automation never come at the cost of trust.

How it works

A practical path with Virkla

01

Why “European” means more than server location

Data residency is table stakes. What actually changes how you buy hiring software: applicant rights, co-determination, and emerging AI regulation that expects human oversight and explainable rankings — not just a chosen data center.

02

What you get with Virkla

DE/EN product experience, compliance-oriented workflows, skills-first matching, and content that speaks to German and EU buyers — not translated US playbooks.

Frequently asked questions

Do you only serve Germany?

Germany is a core market; the platform supports broader European hiring workflows and English for international teams.

How do you support EU AI Act readiness?

Transparency, human override, and documentation — see Responsible AI and talk to our team for your use case.

Is Virkla an ATS or a marketplace?

Primarily an employer hiring workspace with candidate matching — not a job board-only product.
