A short demo video visualizes how the Interview AI Agent operates during live technical interviews

NEW YORK, Feb. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fusemachines Inc. ("Fusemachines" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:FUSE), a leading provider of enterprise artificial intelligence technologies, today announced a product milestone for its AI Studio, with its proprietary Interview AI Agent now assisting 100% of the Company's initial technical screening interviews. This milestone demonstrates how AI can be responsibly applied to augment human decision-making in enterprise business processes. Fusemachines also released a demo video showcasing how the Interview AI Agent operates during live technical interviews.

The Interview AI Agent is enabled by Fusemachines' AI Studio, the company's enterprise AI platform designed to rapidly build, deploy, and scale practical AI engines and AI agents across business functions. Within AI Studio, the Interview AI Agent enables, rather than replaces, non-technical recruiters to confidently conduct technical interviews by providing real-time guidance, structured evaluation, and decision support. By running all initial technical screening interviews through the Interview AI Agent, Fusemachines has reduced dependency on scarce technical interviewers, improved interview consistency, and accelerated hiring cycles while maintaining rigorous technical evaluation standards.

The Interview AI Agent joins live video interviews, guides recruiters on which technical questions to ask, evaluates and rates candidate responses in real time, and dynamically asks follow-up questions based on the depth and quality of answers. The result is a structured, consistent, and scalable technical interview experience.

"The Interview AI Agent shows how our AI Studio turns advanced AI into practical tools for business teams," said Sameer Maskey, Founder and CEO of Fusemachines. "By assisting every technical interview at Fusemachines, it validates our platform while empowering recruiters with technical intelligence and preserving human judgment, accountability, and fairness, reflecting our commitment to pursuing and deploying AI responsibly."

The newly released demo video provides a walkthrough of the Interview AI Agent in action, showing how it listens to candidate responses, recommends follow-up questions, and generates structured technical assessments that hiring teams can rely on for faster and more informed decisions.

Looking ahead, Fusemachines plans to work with strategic partners to bring the Interview AI Agent to a wider market, beginning with retail customers facing high-volume hiring needs and increasing pressure to improve speed and consistency. The global recruitment market represents hundreds of billions of dollars in annual spend, with talent acquisition technology emerging as a rapidly growing segment. While initially focused on technical recruiting in retail, Fusemachines expects the Interview AI Agent to expand to additional roles and industries, supporting scalable, AI-assisted hiring across enterprise workforces.
