SINGAPORE, Aug. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Moka AI (formerly MokaHR), an AI-powered applicant tracking system (ATS) and recruiting platform, has released deployment results for Moka Eva, its AI recruiting agent. At a leading international coffee and tea chain with more than 20,000 locations, Moka Eva cut per-store time-to-hire from 15.4 to 3.8 days.

The results come as HR leaders are increasingly looking for hard numbers to quantify the value of AI hiring tools. That theme ran through the World HR Summit in Kuala Lumpur in July, where Moka AI joined a roundtable, and the JobsDB by SEEK HR Conference in Hong Kong on Aug. 7, where it hosted a booth.

The chain deployed Moka Eva across its entire recruiting process. The agent sources candidates, screens applications, calls applicants to confirm interest, conducts AI interviews and assessments, and sends shortlists directly to decision-makers. The deployment has cut the company's cost per application by 60% and manual intervention by more than 80% compared with its pre-AI process.

Moka Eva uses a unified rubric for screening and interviews, allowing structured assessments to be applied uniformly across locations. Its results are consistent with those of human reviewers more than 92% of the time, helping maintain the same evaluation standards as hiring scales. The agent is built for enterprises with distributed hiring operations, from technology and financial services to retail networks.

To date, Moka Eva has screened more than 5 million resumes and assisted in over 600,000 interviews. It supports more than 10 languages.

Moka Eva's standardized approach can also work through channel-native experiences. For a global sportswear and sporting goods retailer in Southeast Asia, Moka Eva screens candidates and books interviews entirely over WhatsApp, saving the recruiting team 685 hours a month.

"Speed is the visible part. The real problem is that the same role gets judged differently in every location," said Guoxing Li, co-founder and CEO of Moka AI. "An agent that applies one standard across 20,000 locations makes the outcome measurable, and measurable is what enterprises are now asking us for."

"We chose Moka AI because it has significantly improved the efficiency and effectiveness of our recruitment process," said Ms. Li, group co-founder and group CHRO of Advance Intelligence Group. "Its seamless integration with LinkedIn and Lark makes requisition management and interview scheduling much easier."

AI adoption is accelerating across the Asia-Pacific as organizations face growing pressure to demonstrate measurable returns. Aon's Human Capital Trends 2026 Study found that 74% of organizations in the region have deployed or are piloting AI programs. Yet KPMG's Q2 2026 Asia Pulse survey of 521 senior executives across six Asia-Pacific markets found that 55% of companies have delayed or scaled back AI agent rollouts as expected operating costs began to outstrip the value generated, compared with 49% globally.

SINGAPORE, June 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Moka AI (formerly MokaHR), an AI-powered applicant tracking system (ATS) and recruiting platform, today launched Moka Eva across the Asia Pacific. The AI recruiting agent is designed to make hiring decisions more consistent and precise as organizations use it across more roles and candidate interactions.

The launch comes as demand for AI-driven hiring surges across the region. More than four in five organizations surveyed in Singapore (82%) are already using AI in hiring, onboarding or training, according to industry research by ManpowerGroup.

Why do hiring teams need an AI recruiting agent?

Moka Eva covers the full hiring process, from sourcing and screening to interviews and candidate communications, acting as a proactive AI teammate that continuously refines its judgment based on each company's own decisions.

The system has screened more than 5 million resumes and assisted in more than 600,000 interviews to date, producing results consistent with human reviewers more than 92% of the time.

At a leading international coffee and tea chain with more than 20,000 locations, Moka Eva cut per-store time-to-hire by 75% and lifted offer-to-onboarding conversion from 14.2% to 35.8%.

How does AI Interview support first-round screening?

Moka Eva also supports automated first-round screening through AI Interview, which sends candidates a single link and conducts a structured interview autonomously, supporting more than 10 languages.

The system probes two to three follow-up questions to test the depth of each answer, flags suspected cheating in real time, and returns a scored report with video playback. Companies using the tool have cut screening time by up to 70%, with shortlist cycles running three times faster.

How does Interview Coach assist human-led interviews?

For human-led interviews, Moka AI's Interview Coach extracts hiring criteria from a company's own past interviews, generates tailored questions before each session and prompts interviewers in real time, scoring each candidate afterward and sharpening its benchmarks as more interviews are completed. The goal is not to replace interviewers, but to help companies turn strong individual judgment into a more consistent organizational capability.

"We want to turn the talent-spotting ability of a few great interviewers into a capability the whole organization can share," said Guoxing Li, co-founder and CEO of Moka AI. "With Moka Eva, hiring becomes less of a black box and more of a compounding asset — every search, screen and interview helps the organization get clearer about who it needs and how to hire better."

Moka AI is trusted by more than 3,000 companies globally, including more than 30% of the Fortune 500. Moka Eva brings that enterprise-grade recruiting intelligence to teams across Asia Pacific.
