FAQ

Straight answers. No hedging.

Everything leaders ask before working with us — including the uncomfortable questions. If yours isn't here, bring it to a call; you'll get the same directness.

Working with Hab

What exactly does Hab Business Solutions do?

We are a strategic AI implementation partner. We diagnose where your operations lose time and money, design AI-assisted processes to fix it, deploy bounded pilots with human oversight, and measure results against a baseline. Our own products — MinMaxHR, CandidRanker, and JobRankd — run this method in production.

How do we start?

Two free doors: take the 3-minute AI Readiness Score, or book a strategy call. The call is a working session on one of your processes, not a pitch. If there's a fit, the first paid step is a fixed-scope diagnosis or pilot.

How long until we see results?

The diagnosis takes 1–2 weeks and delivers value on its own (a quantified map of your process leaks). Pilots typically go live in under 14 days from scoping, with measured results within the first month of operation.

What does it cost?

Fixed-scope audit, fixed-scope pilot, scale pricing agreed against measured results. No open-ended retainers to start. Exact figures depend on process complexity — a strategy call gets you a real number quickly.

Do you work outside India?

Yes. We're based in India — which keeps our engineering economics sharp — and serve clients globally. Remote-first delivery is standard; our products are used across time zones.

Trust, data & governance

Who is accountable for what the AI decides?

A named human, always. Our systems are designed so AI ranks, drafts, and recommends while people approve — and every override is recorded. Hab's founder remains personally accountable for every engagement.

How do you handle our data under India's DPDP Act?

Data flows are documented before integration begins: what is collected, why, where it's stored, how long it's retained, and who can access it. The documentation is written for your legal team's review, not buried in an appendix.

Can AI screening be biased?

Any screening can be — including human screening, which varies by reviewer, mood, and fatigue. Our structural answer: identical, explainable criteria applied to every candidate, human decision gates, and an audit trail. Consistency is measured, not assumed.

Will this replace our team?

Our deployments remove the repetitive reading-and-routing work, not the judgment work. In practice, teams redeploy hours toward the decisions and relationships that were being starved. We also refuse engagements whose only goal is surveillance dressed as productivity.

Products

Is MinMaxHR an ATS?

No — it's an HR KPI Optimization Platform, a decision-support system that works alongside your existing ATS. It improves the decisions in your hiring process; it doesn't replace posting and tracking.

Are the products actually live?

Yes. MinMaxHR (minmaxhr.com) and CandidRanker (app.candidranker.com) are live in production, screening thousands of resumes per quarter. JobRankd is in early access.

Can we use CandidRanker without the consulting engagement?

Yes — the platforms stand on their own. The consulting engagement exists for teams that want process redesign, governance, and training around the tooling, which is where the largest gains usually are.
