Ribbon’s conversational voice and video AI will help organisations screen talent faster, deliver a more engaging candidate experience, and reduce recruiting costs

Dayforce, Inc. today announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire Ribbon AI Inc. (“Ribbon”), an AI-native recruiting technology company that helps organisations source, screen, and engage qualified talent more quickly and efficiently. 

The acquisition will add specialised agentic recruiting capabilities to Dayforce, including Ribbon’s conversational voice and video AI technology, helping organisations conduct high-quality candidate interviews at scale. By automating early-stage screening, Ribbon helps employers move faster, reduce the cost and time associated with traditional candidate interviews, and provide applicants with a more accessible and engaging experience. 

“High-volume hiring shouldn’t mean choosing between speed and a strong candidate experience,” said David Ossip, Founder and CEO of Dayforce, Inc. “AI can take on more of the manual, time-sensitive work that slows hiring down, while recruiters focus on engaging talent and making the decisions that matter. Ribbon accelerates our vision for agentic recruiting, helping frontline organisations get the right people into critical roles faster and build a more responsive, resilient workforce.” 

Ribbon’s technology is already proven at scale, with hundreds of customers and more than one million completed interviews. In 2026, Ribbon was named one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in Enterprise for its use of AI agents to conduct human-like, well-researched job interviews.
