Storyline is an AI-written, source-cited narrative of everything your team has recorded about a candidate, job, client or contact. Open any record and read what happened, what mattered most and what is still open, with every chapter pointing at the activities behind it.
A candidate calls back. A client emails about a role from last spring. A colleague's job lands on your desk. Each time, someone scrolls through months of notes, emails, stage changes, interview feedback and call logs to reconstruct what actually happened before they can say a useful word. Multiply that by every record, every recruiter, every day, and it is one of the largest hidden costs in the business. Storyline pays that tax once, and then keeps the answer current.
Written for a busy recruiter opening the record cold
Two paragraphs that tell you where things stand and how they got there, plus the single moment that mattered most: the offer that was declined, the brief that changed, the interview that turned the search. Read it in the time it takes to answer the phone.
The history broken into two to six chapters on a timeline, each with a period, an outcome and the exact activities it rests on. Expand any chapter to see the notes, emails and decisions behind it. If a claim can't point at an activity, it isn't made.
The hard numbers, computed by code rather than the AI: applications, furthest stage reached, decisions, interviews, offers, placements, days open, responsiveness. Then the loose ends: the decision still awaited, the email never answered, the brief with no applications yet.
Storyline sits on candidate profiles, job pages and application lists inside CloudFlow, on every CloudFlow Compass shortlist as a Story button, and as a record tab inside Salesforce for accounts, contacts, jobs and candidates. Nothing is generated behind your back: a person clicks Generate, the storyline is written from the activity recorded up to that moment, and every version is kept, so you can always see what the story looked like when a decision was made.
The rules Storyline is written under are the reason you can trust what it says
Each chapter names the activities it is built on, and those citations are verified against the record before the storyline is saved. Anything the AI cannot point at is left unsaid.
Every count, rate and duration in a storyline is computed by code and handed to the writer. The model quotes numbers; it is never allowed to estimate or invent one.
A storyline says what happened and what it means for the recruiter. It never speculates about motives or character, and it is forbidden from mentioning or inferring personal characteristics of any kind.
In Salesforce, activity is collected in the requesting user's own security context. A recruiter's storyline can only draw on records that recruiter is already allowed to read.
Activities and storylines are stored in your own tenant space, hosted in the EU. The compliance trail records what was generated, when and from what, without ever storing personal data or narrative text.
A storyline is written when a person asks for one, and it takes no action and makes no decision. It is a reading aid that sits beside your team's judgment, never a substitute for it.
Storyline is an optional add-on to the CloudFlow platform. As applications are screened, decisions recorded, stages moved and interviews logged, the activity flows into Storyline automatically, alongside Salesforce tasks, events, emails and notes. Nobody writes anything twice. It sits beside CloudFlow Compass, so a candidate surfaced from your database arrives with their whole history with your team one click away, and like everything in CloudFlow it is API-first, so client systems can contribute activity too.
