What takes your team days, Caio resolves in minutes.

One unclear DBS certificate can mean days of back-and-forth — and a candidate lost to a faster agency. Caio's digital workers detect the issue, request the fix and validate the new document automatically.

Continuous compliance

Expiries managed end to end. Not just flagged.

Most systems alert you when a document expires. Caio runs the entire renewal — contacting the candidate, collecting the new document, validating it and clearing the check. Your team is notified when it's resolved, not when there's a problem.

GCA Framework–ready compliance

Built for agencies operating under the new education recruitment framework.

The Framework raises the bar on consistency, evidence and audit readiness. Caio standardises candidate clearance across every file, consultant and branch — with every check, recommendation and approval logged end to end.

Consistent file standards

Every candidate is checked against the same framework — not individual interpretation or manual habits.

Audit-ready evidence trail

Documents, checks, recommendations and approvals are recorded clearly for review.

Framework-aligned processes

Support for KCSIE, APSCo, REC, GCA, Neuven, Lawspeed and your own internal standards.
