Textio wins two International Business Awards (aka the Stevie awards)

April marked the launch of Textio Hire, and since that moment, the new product has been met with enthusiasm from the community. From the get-go, Johnson & Johnson saw an increase in their response rates to their recruiting emails by 25% and Zillow saw an increase in their response rate by 16%. Not only has Textio Hire been a hit with customers, it’s also beginning to garner outside recognition as well. It’s a great honor that Textio Hire was awarded the Silver Stevie at the 2018 IBA awards for “Best New Product or Service of the Year — Software — Human Capital Management Solution.”

We were blown away by some of the judges’ comments:

“Great use of augmented writing and valuable for organizations looking to increase response rates by using language. I like [the emphasis on the] value of culture alignment in use of language — interesting perspective.

“Great product as it helps with ease to rethink phrasing and seeing the world through the eyes of the reader, rather than the writer.”

“Incredible AI product (the future has arrived!) and excellent customer experience. Takes the guesswork out of using the usual formulaic jargon.”

“Amazing! This is truly what is setting the tone in the Talent Acquisition field, innovative and statistically proven. The war of talent will never be the same with this writing platform”

Not only that, but one of our customers, NVIDIA, took home the Bronze Stevie for Best Human Resource Team based on their innovative use of Textio Hire!

The International Business Awards are the world’s premier business awards program. Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word for “crowned,” the awards garnered more than 3,900 entries from 74 countries.
