Each stage of EQO can be embedded into your platform through the same API from job description creation and distribution to attraction, screening, interviewing, and scoring. Partners can offer the full top-of-funnel workflow through one connected API layer, or embed individual agents and tools modularly inside the systems their customers already use.

Together, they give ATS, HCM, and CRM platforms a complete hiring execution layer without building the infrastructure themselves.

The EQO VONQ HAPI Advantage

Built for embedding, not adapted for it. HAPI was designed from day one as an API-first platform for partners to embed inside their own product. That's a different starting point than a direct-to-employer tool retrofitted for white-label use, and it shows up in how cleanly it integrates and how little ongoing maintenance it demands from our HAPI partners.
HAPI's user experience. This is where this architecture really pays off. No other technology globally matches HAPI's combination of breadth, depth, and ease of use. Because it was built for embedding rather than adapted for it, customer setup is seamless and takes minutes, not the weeks or months of integration time typical of other vendors. Users never have to leave your platform: as soon as a job is created, they can start distributing immediately, inside the platform they already work in, with no separate login and no separate tool to learn.
Category breadth. We support Organic distribution, single-ad purchases, Bring Your Own Contract (BYOC), Direct Apply, Social Media Advertising and AI screening all sit under a single technical and commercial umbrella. HAPI partners can widen their scope over time without re-platforming, because the capability already exists.
Proven multi-tenant scale. Our infrastructure already serves multiple large ATS, CRM and HCM partners concurrently, including iCIMS, HiBob, Employ, SmartRecruiters, and Greenhouse, and is live inside 85+ platforms globally, from PageUp in Australia to JazzHR in the US and Tellent/Recruitee in Europe.
Global reach built for how hiring actually works locally. The strongest channel in a given market is often not a global media network, it's a regionally dominant board: SEEK in APAC, Naukri in India, InfoJobs in Spain, plus 21+ government job boards across EMEA and APAC. VONQ covers both ends, the major global boards like LinkedIn, Indeed, and Stepstone Group. HAPI is multilingual today (English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, with Swedish, Finnish, and Norwegian landing Q3 2026) and multi-currency, invoicing in GBP, USD, or EUR, with pricing shown to your customers in AUD, USD, EUR, or GBP.
Enterprise experience beyond the embedded model. VONQ isn't only an embedded solution; we have 20 years of experience working directly with enterprise customers, including Adecco Verisure, Randstad, Danone, Deutsche Bank, and SoftwareOne. That direct relationship is exactly how we know what enterprise customers want and need.
