Lighthouse Hiring

Use Lighthouse from Claude or ChatGPT

The Lighthouse connector lets an AI assistant work in your Lighthouse applicant tracking system as you, with exactly the access you already have in the app.

What you need

A Lighthouse Hiring account that belongs to at least one company.
Claude (any plan that supports connectors) or ChatGPT (a plan that supports apps).

Connect

Claude

Open Settings → Connectors and find Lighthouse Hiring in the directory, then select Connect.
Sign in to Lighthouse and approve the connection on the consent screen.

ChatGPT

Find Lighthouse Hiring in the ChatGPT apps directory and select Connect.
Sign in to Lighthouse and approve the connection on the consent screen.

The server address is https://platform.lighthousehiring.ai/mcp. The consent screen names the assistant asking for access and the account it will act as.

What the assistant can do

Area	Examples
Pipeline and reporting	Pipeline health, stalled candidates, funnel conversion for a role, time to fill, time to hire and time to any stage, open roles across every company you belong to.
Candidates	List applicants and see them side by side, see how Lighthouse calculated a score, read screening answers and interview grades, add internal notes, set tags and star ratings, move a candidate to another stage.
Job postings	Draft a new posting, write a job description, set interview stages and screening questions, publish it as Open or Paused, change its status, archive it.
Scorecards and interviews	Draft a scoring rubric, save it and re-score applicants, suggest and save interview questions.
Templates	Create, change and archive the company's email, scorecard, stage, screening and role templates, or save a posting as a role template. Automation templates can be viewed and archived.
Automations and email	See which automations run on a posting and remove one; draft an email for you to send from Lighthouse. Automations are built and turned on in the Lighthouse app, not by the assistant, and the assistant never sends email itself.

Permissions and safety

Your access, nothing more. Every request runs as the signed-in user under the same database access rules as the Lighthouse app.
Every company you belong to. The assistant starts in your active company. Name another company you belong to ("in Acme, …") and it works there instead, with no reconnecting. Every answer says which company it came from.
Two-step confirmation. Anything candidates or colleagues will see (publishing, pausing, closing or archiving a posting, moving a candidate, saving a scorecard, removing an automation, creating, changing or archiving a template) first returns a plain-English preview. The change happens only after you agree to that preview.
Candidate text is treated as data. Résumés and answers written by applicants are marked as untrusted, and the assistant is told never to follow instructions found in them.
Moving a candidate can trigger an automation the company set up in the app, which may email the candidate. The preview warns you when that may happen.

Data handling

When you use the connector, the assistant receives the Lighthouse data needed to answer your request, such as job postings, candidate names, scores, résumé details, screening answers and notes. That data is then processed by the assistant's provider (Anthropic for Claude, OpenAI for ChatGPT) under your or your organization's agreement with that provider. Lighthouse does not receive your conversation, only the requests the assistant makes on your behalf. See the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Disconnect

Remove the connector in Claude (Settings → Connectors) or ChatGPT (Settings → Apps). To revoke the connection on the Lighthouse side as well, email support@lighthousehiring.ca.

Troubleshooting

"This account is not a member of any company." Ask a Lighthouse admin at your company to invite you, then reconnect.
"Your session has expired." Disconnect and connect again.
The assistant is working in the wrong company. Tell it which company to use by name.
