Ashby summarizes a candidate's history with citations inside its Chrome sourcing extension.

◆Current state
Ashby's recent releases split between governance controls and AI help for recruiters. In the last week it added Audit Logs, org-wide AI Notetaker settings, configurable data-retention triggers and private-by-default internal interview invites. On the AI side, the Chrome extension now summarizes a candidate's past applications, interviews and outreach, with links to the source records.
◆Where it's heading
Admin controls keep arriving at a steady clip, which points to Ashby selling harder into larger, compliance-minded recruiting teams. Its AI features are being placed inside existing workflows, such as notes, sourcing and history, and cite their sources rather than standing alone.
◆Prediction
Expect more admin-level defaults and policy settings for AI features, following the org-wide Notetaker controls and retention configuration.
