Textio

Textio is an AI writing platform that gives HR teams real-time guidance to write fairer job posts and clearer performance feedback.

What is Textio?

Textio is an AI writing platform built specifically for HR teams. It gives real-time guidance as you write job descriptions, candidate outreach, and performance feedback, flagging language that introduces bias and suggesting alternatives backed by outcome data. Textio’s model was trained on hundreds of millions of HR documents and their measurable results, so its recommendations reflect what actually works, not general writing advice. For teams that produce high volumes of recruiting or feedback content, Textio operates as an in-the-moment editor that makes every piece of writing better before it goes out.

How Textio works

Textio analyses language at the phrase level rather than checking for surface errors. It maps what you write against patterns in its training data and surfaces predictions about how that language will perform.

  • Real-time scoring: As you type, Textio scores your content and highlights phrases associated with poor outcomes. A job post might score low because it uses language that statistically correlates with a narrower applicant pool.
  • Bias detection: Textio identifies specific words and constructions associated with gender coding, age bias, or cultural exclusion. It flags these inline and suggests neutral alternatives with predicted outcome data attached.
  • Generative drafting: You can prompt Textio to write or rewrite sections from scratch. Provide notes or bullet points and Textio produces a draft in your employer brand voice, which it learns from your existing content.
  • Predictive analytics: Textio shows a forecast score alongside your content, estimating how it will perform against your diversity and engagement goals before you publish or send.
  • ATS integration: Textio connects to applicant tracking systems like Greenhouse and Lever. You write and score content inside Textio, then push it directly into your ATS workflow without copy-pasting.
  • Two product lines: Textio Loop handles recruiting content. Textio Lift handles performance management writing. Both use the same underlying model but are optimised for their respective document types.

What you can build with Textio

  • Standardised job description library: A company-wide library of approved, bias-reviewed job posts that recruiters use as starting points rather than drafting from scratch each time. Textio scores each template before it enters the library, so every post starts from a strong baseline.
  • Manager feedback coaching program: A structured process where managers write performance reviews inside Textio Lift and receive coaching before they submit. This reduces calibration variance across a team and produces more useful feedback for employees.
  • Employer brand audit: A systematic review of all outward-facing recruiting content against Textio scores, identifying which existing job posts, career page copy, and outreach templates are underperforming and need rewriting.
  • Diversity sourcing improvement workflow: An A/B process where teams test Textio-optimised job descriptions against existing ones, tracking application rates and demographic outcomes to quantify the language improvement over time.
  • Recruiting team writing standards rollout: An onboarding workflow for new recruiters that trains them to write to Textio standards from day one, using live scoring as a feedback mechanism instead of manual review by a senior team member.

FAQ

How much does Textio cost? +

Textio does not publish pricing on its website. Plans start around $15,000 per year for organisations with fewer than 200 employees. For larger deployments, annual contracts typically range from $40,000 to $90,000 for 200 to 500 employees, and exceed $150,000 for enterprise organisations covering 1,000 or more employees.

What is the difference between Textio Loop and Textio Lift? +

Textio Loop focuses on recruiting content: job descriptions, candidate outreach messages, and employer brand copy. It analyses language in real time and suggests edits that improve applicant quality and diversity. Textio Lift focuses on performance management: it guides managers to write clearer, fairer performance reviews and feedback documentation, reducing rating bias and improving the usefulness of feedback for employees.

How does Textio detect bias in writing? +

Textio trained its AI model on hundreds of millions of job postings and their outcomes, including which language patterns attracted or deterred specific candidate demographics. As you write, Textio scores each phrase against this data and highlights language associated with lower diversity outcomes. It then suggests specific alternatives rather than flagging problems without solutions.
