At Faktion we build AI, and we use it thoughtfully in our own processes too. During your application, AI tools may help us with practical steps, like checking that your documents came through complete. They never decide who moves forward: every application is read by a real person on our team, and every decision is made by a human. Curious how this works, or how your data is handled? Just ask, we’re happy to explain.
