# BerriBot > BerriBot is an agentic AI recruiting platform that sources, screens, interviews and verifies candidates end to end, with built-in fraud detection that catches proxies and deepfakes. BerriBot runs the first round of hiring as one agentic loop: AI agents rank applications against the job description, contact and schedule candidates, run the first-round interview and verify identity throughout it, and return scored, proctored shortlists so the hiring team only makes the final decision. Because the interview and the identity checks happen in the same system, proxy interviews, deepfaked video and outside help are caught during the interview rather than after the offer. BerriBot Inc is headquartered in San Francisco, with offices in London, Singapore and Coimbatore, India. Eight of the world's ten largest IT services companies use BerriBot. ## The platform - [Agentic AI recruiting platform](https://www.berribot.com/agentic-ai-recruiting-platform): What agentic recruiting is, how BerriBot's agents work together, and how its fraud detection works. - [Berri360: proxy interview and deepfake detection](https://www.berribot.com/campaign/berri360): How BerriBot catches proxy candidates, deepfakes and interview cheating during first-round technical interviews, with six checks that run for the whole interview. - [Compare AI recruiting software](https://www.berribot.com/compare): Every comparison article: best-of lists, alternatives and BerriBot vs other tools, with sources. ## Products - [Berri 360, recruiting automation end to end](https://www.berribot.com/product/berri-360): Every agent in one hiring loop.
