Healthcare Staffing

ACTAVA delivers the workflow-to-model platform to safely scale healthcare staffing operations.

Filling a req still runs on people. Sourcing, screening, credentialing, licensure checks, shift coverage — every step scales headcount before it scales revenue. ACTAVA gives staffing companies prebuilt agents for that work, on one platform, with KORA, CURA, and χ-BENCH behind every one.

Every placement still takes hours of human work.

Healthcare staffing wins on speed and trust. The company that returns a qualified, credentialed candidate first fills the req. Behind every placement sits the slow work: sourcing, screening, license verification, background and exclusion checks, I-9s, onboarding paperwork, and a compliance file that has to hold up in an audit. Until now, growing placement volume has meant one thing, growing headcount to match.

Staffing operations scale when agents carry the volume.

Pointing a frontier model at this work looks like the way out until the tasks repeat. In staffing, a credentialing miss reaches a patient, so what you build around the model decides whether an agent is safe to deploy. ACTAVA's prebuilt agents take on the sourcing, screening, and compliance load, and every one runs behind human approval gates with a full audit trail.

The platform

One platform carries a staffing agent from first build to governed scale.

Build staffing agents on KORA

Compose agents from healthcare-native building blocks instead of standing up a codebase per workflow. KORA orchestrates candidate outreach, screening, and credentialing across chat, voice, and background processes, tests every agent against χ-BENCH-grade simulation before it reaches production, then improves it from reviewed runs.

Explore KORA

Run CURA, frontier models, or both

Swap models without rewriting a workflow. CURA, ACTAVA's trillion-parameter healthcare model, carries clinical reasoning and payer rules natively, serves an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and runs in your cloud environment at lower cost.

Govern all of it with KORA

One governance frame covers the first agent and the five-hundredth. KORA maps 110+ controls across NIST AI RMF, HIPAA, CMS, and ONC HT1, enforces human-in-the-loop gates, and keeps a complete audit trail for every action an agent takes.

The agent library · Healthcare staffing

Prebuilt agents for the workflows that decide a placement

Staffing agents, not people-ops agents adapted to staffing. The catalog follows a placement end to end: client acquisition and demand research, sourcing and match scoring, voice pre-screening, submission packets, credentialing against NPPES and the state boards with OIG and SAM exclusion screening, contracting and Day-1 onboarding, then mid-assignment check-ins, redeployment, and clinician career development. Every agent ships with human approval gates and full audit logging, and forking one beats specifying an agent from scratch.

Case study
Nurses Lounge

Nurses Lounge turned a marketplace nurses had to search into one that does the work for them.

Nurses Lounge spent two decades building a career network that connects 30,000+ nurses with 200+ nursing schools and associations, 1,000+ degree programs, and facility job listings. The hard part came after the data. A nurse weighing a degree wants cost, duration, and an earnings picture. A recruiter wants a defensible shortlist, not a spreadsheet to sort by hand. Every answer already lived in the marketplace, and every one took a human hours to assemble. On ACTAVA KORA, five workflows shipped as governed agents on one platform instead of five codebases: job matching, recruiter shortlisting, career pathway planning, NCLEX prep, and a personalized news digest, each read-only against the marketplace, opt-in gated for recruiting, and grounded so every figure traces to a named source.
