In recruitment tech, trust isn't assumed anymore. It's earned.

SOC2 certified, bias audited and client-ready | Kyloe Partners

Kyloe Partners has just successfully completed our SOC 2 Type 2 audit with zero exceptions. Here's what that means for you, your clients, and your procurement conversations.

At our RecToks event in Boston a couple of weeks ago, 25 recruitment leaders told us the same thing in different ways: it’s more important than ever to prove that the technology in their supply chain is secure, compliant, and independently verified. Not only for their own peace of mind, but to satisfy their clients too.

Their clients are asking harder questions, and “we trust our technology” isn't enough of an answer anymore. At Kyloe, we've been preparing for exactly that - and this week we have something concrete to share.

The news

We've just passed our latest SOC 2 Type 2 audit with zero exceptions. And now it covers two additional products in our certification.


Kyloe AwesomeDocs  |   Kyloe DataTools    |    Kyloe AI for Bullhorn

These solutions are now independently verified as SOC2 compliant: Three products. One audit. Zero exceptions.


What we hear from our customers - and why it matters

The conversations at Engage Boston were revealing. AI regulation has changed the dynamic between recruitment agencies and their technology partners - and the questions coming from end clients reflect that shift.

Data and AI used to be a back-office conversation. Now it's showing up in RFPs, client renewals, and procurement reviews. Clients want to know not just what technology their suppliers are using, but how it works, where their data lives, and who is accountable when something goes wrong.

The questions are getting more specific. "Who has access to our candidate data?" "How does your AI make decisions, and can you show us?", "What regulations does your tech comply with - and what's your evidence?"

This is the new baseline. AI regulation - from the EU AI Act to emerging US state legislation - has raised expectations about data security and handling across the board. Clients aren't just asking these questions out of curiosity. They're asking because their own compliance teams, legal advisors, and boards are asking them first.

Secure data = peace of mind

SOC 2 Type 2 exists precisely for this moment. It's an independent, rigorous audit that verifies how a technology provider protects the data it handles, covering a number of trust service criteria (also known as TSCs). It isn’t a self-assessment or just a checklist. An external auditor reviews actual controls, and tests whether they work consistently over time, issuing a report that you can rely on.

Kyloe passing our SOC 2 audit with zero exceptions - across multiple products - is documented proof you can put in front of any client, prospect, or procurement team. No lengthy back-and-forth. No chasing policies by email. Just confidence, on demand.

And with AI regulation accelerating too; the foundation under all of it is the same: can you prove that the technology you use handles data responsibly, operates transparently, and has been independently verified?

SOC 2 is a significant part of how we answer those questions.

AI regulation and bias auditing

That line really resonated with the US audience because it names something real. Your clients don't want reassurance, they want documentation. They want an audit trail. They want to be able to say, with evidence, that the AI tools in their supply chain have been independently verified as fair. That's exactly what Kyloe's bias certification and SOC 2 renewal provide.

Kyloe's AI products carry Warden Assurance - a continuous AI auditing framework that looks at fairness and bias across the full candidate lifecycle. That means the audit methodology tests for:

  • Disparate impact across protected characteristics
  • Model transparency and explainability
  • Consistency of outputs across candidate groups
  • Ongoing monitoring, not just a one-time check

This isn't just a badge on a website. It's a rigorous, repeatable process that runs continuously, not just at renewal time.

The Kyloe Trust Center: your security questions, answered fast

Last year we launched the Kyloe Trust Center - a single place where clients, prospects, and compliance teams can access our security documentation, policies, and certification reports. No email chains or ticket queues. Just all the answers you need, when you need them.

Now with expanded SOC 2 certified products and a refreshed bias audit methodology, the Trust Center gives global clients the specifics they need to feel confident putting Kyloe in their tech stack.

Shorter procurement cycles. Fewer back-and-forth RFP responses. Proof on demand - for your clients, your board, or your own peace of mind. That's what the Trust Center is built for.
