Works with Mercury
Holi for Mercury users.
Mercury keeps recruitment inside the Microsoft stack you already live in. Holi adds the reading and remembering layer: it takes the article, the post or the note, scopes it to your niche, and drafts the message that earns the reply.

Where each one sits
Mercury is the system of record. Holi is the intelligence layer.
What Mercury does well
- Native fit with Microsoft 365, Outlook and Teams.
- Dynamics-based configurability for agency workflow.
- Reporting through the Microsoft data estate.
Where Holi fits in
- Captures signal from outside the inbox and files it with the source line intact.
- Holds niche vocabulary so drafts sound like the consultant, not the system.
- Suggests who to move today and why, based on what changed this week.
The stack
What Mercury holds, what Holi adds.
When to lean on Mercury alone
If your edge is workflow throughput, not specialist depth, Mercury is enough.
High-volume desks where every role looks the same. Reporting-led organisations that measure throughput and pipeline conversion. RPO teams. Holi is built for the specialist whose edge is judgement and memory; if that is not your edge, you may not need the intelligence layer.
Questions
Asked, and answered.

- Does Holi send from Outlook?
Holi drafts. You approve and send from the tool you already use.
- Who is Mercury best for, and where does Holi earn its place?
Mercury is best for: agencies that live inside Microsoft 365, Outlook and Teams. Holi earns its place one layer up, on the specialist desk inside it: reading the market, remembering the detail months later, and drafting the message that earns a reply, with the source line always visible.
