Fountain Product Release Notes (9/1/2025 - 10/3/2025)

This month we’ve released several updates across Hire, AI Recruiter, and the Fountain Platform. These changes are designed to make applicant review faster, improve multilingual support for recruiters and candidates, and give teams more powerful automation options.

Highlights

• Faster applicant review – resumes now pinned at the top of profiles in Hire.

• Smarter automation – Platform Automation Center now supports segment-based triggers and filters.

• Broader language coverage – AI Recruiter adds five new recruiter-facing languages; Hire expands WhatsApp and Job Directory translations.
