Fair questions
Questions agencies ask about the applicant experience
Will applicants actually use it, or ignore it like a portal login they forget?
It's built around the moments applicants already check — task reminders and progress updates land the way a message would, not buried behind a login they have to remember to visit.
What if an applicant isn't comfortable with technology?
The portal is deliberately simple — if someone can use email, they can use it. And nothing about it replaces a phone call or a home visit when that's what's needed.
Can we control what applicants see at each stage?
Yes — assessors control what's visible and when. Applicants see their own progress and tasks, not internal notes or assessment content still in draft.
Does this replace the relationship with the assessor?
No — it removes the admin around that relationship (chasing documents, re-explaining next steps) so the assessor's time goes to the parts that actually need a person.
