SourceFlow are proud to announce the launch of SourceFlow Deployed.
SourceFlow Deployed is a dedicated AI consultancy that builds bespoke solutions for using cutting-edge AI technologies.
Our core digital experience platform (DXP) remains the industry gold standard for recruitment website design and performance, and we intend to remain an elite recruitment website builder for agencies globally.
SourceFlow Deployed does not replace this core offering; it is a separate, highly specialised arm of the business. While some of these bespoke AI solutions integrate directly with our DXP to supercharge recruitment website performance, others operate entirely independently of your website to solve complex operational challenges across your wider business.
We are layering agentic intelligence (AIP) and forward deployed engineering (FDE) on top of our world-class design foundation.
Matt Comber, CEO at SourceFlow, said: "Websites are no longer just 'shop windows', they are becoming data processing hubs". He added: "We aren't changing who we are, we are giving our clients a digital workforce to live inside the websites we build". Beyond the website, this digital workforce empowers with your wider systems to bring order to fragmented recruitment technology.
How do Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) help recruitment agencies
Our team goes far beyond standard support; they are Forward Deployed Engineers. They don't just support the site; they engineer the outcomes. FDEs sit at the intersection of our platform’s data and the client’s business goals to build custom agents that solve specific problems.
The lifecycle of how an FDE transforms your operational process happens in three distinct phases:
-
Phase 1: The Audit. They find the lost money or wasted time in the client's current process.
-
Phase 2: The Build. They create a custom Agent or solution unique to that client's niche.
"Instead of just 'fixing a button,' a FDE identifies that 40% of applicants are not placeable and builds a first stage screener to filter them out," explained Comber, "Software is a commodity: 'I have a website.' FDE is a competitive advantage: 'I have a SourceFlow Deployed Engineer who built a custom tool that can produce anonymous branded CVs in seconds.'.”
Examples of bespoke solutions we have built
Our Forward Deployed Engineers have already delivered powerful outcomes that stretch far beyond standard website functionality. Here are some of the bespoke solutions we have built:
-
AI Candidate Screening: AI screening for inbound applications—every CV is parsed into structured fields, scored out of 100 against the specific job description it was submitted for, and routed on a threshold. We set up branded emails to the candidate and consultant, Teams/Slack alerts, and the score, score-band field values, reasoning note and parsed data written directly to the CRM.
-
Gated Content: We can password-protect any page on the customer's own site with a single script tag. The password is set in your system’s back-end and is super secure.
-
CV Builder: This tool turns a LinkedIn profile PDF export into a branded A4 CV in the agency's own template. The AI extracts the fields, a consultant reviews and edits them, and then the PDF is generated.
-
Client Portal: A branded portal for a recruitment agency's hiring-company clients. Live job orders are read straight from the agency's CRM, anonymised candidate matches are scored across five explainable signals, one-click introduction requests are written back to the CRM, and structured new-role briefs land directly in a consultant review queue.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Does SourceFlow Deployed replace my current SourceFlow website?
No. Our digital experience platform remains our core offering. SourceFlow Deployed is a separate, supplementary consultancy service that builds bespoke AI solutions to run alongside or independently of your DXP.
Do these AI solutions only work on my website?
No. While many custom agents live inside the websites we build to process candidate data, our FDEs also build standalone solutions—like automated CV formatting or CRM integration tools—that operate entirely outside of your website infrastructure.
How do you measure the success of a bespoke AI solution? We operate as a consultancy partner. Our FDEs regularly review our solutions and your challenges to prove our value and ensure the technology is actively generating returns for your business.
Will this integrate with my existing CRM? Yes. During a typical growth sprint, we connect their existing CRM to SourceFlow on day one. This ensures your custom agents have immediate access to your source of truth to execute tasks accurately.
