Textio

Textio is a software company that leverages artificial intelligence to help organizations create more inclusive and effective job descriptions and employer brand content. Founded in 2014, Textio's platform analyzes language patterns to identify potentially biased or exclusionary language in job postings and other recruiting materials. The company's core product, Textio Hire, uses AI to grade job posts in real-time, tracking words that could lead to positive or negative outcomes in attracting diverse candidates. Textio also offers Textio Loop for recruiting and Textio Lift for performance management, which are designed to interrupt bias in candidate and employee communications.

In 2023, Textio expanded its offerings with Textio for Employer Brand, a tool that helps companies build a more welcoming and inclusive workplace by identifying off-putting, exclusive, or offensive language in employer brand content. This product guides users toward language that appeals to people who value diversity, are community-oriented, and see abilities as malleable. Textio's technology aims to help organizations not only attract diverse candidates but also create a sustainable culture of inclusion and belonging.
