At the 2026 HR Technology Conference & Exposition, October 20-22 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Survale will exhibit at Booth 3810 and announce three major developments that position talent experience data as a foundational layer for AI-driven HR and enterprise analytics. The company, known for its talent feedback and analytics platform, aims to address a critical gap: AI agents and analytics platforms have lacked access to the human side of hiring data, limiting their effectiveness in talent decisions.
The centerpiece is Survale's new MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and Analytics API, which make talent experience data available to AI agents and business intelligence tools for the first time. The MCP server allows client AI agents to securely retrieve live Survale metrics and trends within any agentic process, enabling automated executive briefings, recruiting operations workflows, and AI-generated reporting. The Analytics API automatically pulls Survale data into popular BI solutions such as Power BI, Tableau, or people analytics platforms like Visier, Splash BI, or Crunchr. Data can be accessed as fully rendered dashboard widgets or raw data, with initial metrics including Overall Candidate NPS, Hiring Manager Satisfaction, Completion %, and trend data, all filterable by location, recruiter, job family, source, and more.
SurvaleAI has also received a full agentic upgrade, now utilizing a team of expert agents to analyze both statistical data and free-form comments. The new SurvaleAI acts as an expert talent experience analyst, answering questions and surfacing insights tied to operational data such as location, hiring manager, recruiter, and job. Users can analyze dashboard, survey, and comment data with simple questions, save and share prompts, activate the built-in analyst from any dashboard via a new Prompt Widget, and receive context-sensitive suggestions for reducing problems and leveraging successes.
Additionally, Survale is launching the industry's first research-backed Hiring Manager Candidate Experience Certification, now generally available. Built on 15 years of CandE Benchmark Research spanning over 2 million candidates across more than 2,000 employers, the program includes five 10-minute modules covering interviewer mindset, pre-interview alignment, structured interviewing, post-interview execution, and feedback optimization. It provides practical tools like the Panel Role-Assigner Matrix, 15-Minute Scorecard Method, and Disposition Script Bank, and creates a closed feedback loop where certified managers see their own live candidate sentiment from the Survale platform. The certification is enterprise-ready, delivered via white-label branded portal or SCORM-compliant modules in any LMS.
Survale also announced the winners of the 2026 CandE Benchmark Research Program awards, recognizing employers with the highest-rated candidate experiences based directly on candidate feedback. The full list of 2026 winners is available at https://survale.com/cande-award-winners/. Registration for the 2027 CandE program is now open, inviting companies to benchmark their candidate experience against the industry's leading research dataset.
"The theme of this year's show is moving from change to transformation, and that's exactly what these announcements deliver," said Jason Moreau, CEO of Survale. "AI agents and analytics platforms are transforming how talent decisions get made, but they've been flying blind on the human side of hiring. With our MCP server and API, Survale becomes the experience data layer for that entire stack—and with our new certification program, we're closing the loop by transforming hiring manager behavior itself. We can't wait to show it all at Booth 3810."
