Specification
AgencyOptix, in full
AgencyOptix is built specifically for UK recruitment and staffing agencies — not as a module inside a wider HR or payroll suite.
Everything below is drawn from what's actually published on this site — AgencyOptix's Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and product pages — rather than aspirational claims. Where AgencyOptix doesn't yet publish or offer something, that's stated plainly rather than glossed over.
Scope
What AgencyOptix covers
- Recruitment and staffing agencies operating under the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003
- Multi-branch agencies, from a single branch upwards
- Candidate records — right-to-work, DBS and qualification tracking
- Client and placement records, temp and permanent
- Timesheets, calendar and cross-branch reporting
- Incident and complaint records
What it doesn't cover
- Payroll processing, invoicing or accounting
- Job board listings or candidate sourcing/advertising
- Umbrella company or contractor payment administration
- Applicant tracking for direct (non-agency) employers
Features
Placements
A live register of every placement you run.
- Placement profile, client and candidate in one place

Timesheets
Build and approve timesheets without a spreadsheet.
- Digital timesheet submission and approval, branch by branch
- Permission-gated editing for branch managers and payroll

Calendar
Compliance renewals, reviews and bookings, together.

Candidates
A single record for every candidate on your books.
- Right-to-work, DBS and qualification expiry tracked per candidate

- Risk flags surfaced on the dashboard the moment they're logged
Forms & Records
Digital forms built for compliance and audit.
- Drag-and-drop form builder for registration and compliance checks

Clients
Keep every client relationship compliant and on record.
- Contracts, rate cards and account owners tracked per client
- Role-based access from Consultant to Branch Manager
- Client profiles linked directly to placements and bookings
Incidents
Complaints and incidents, handled properly.
- Structured incident capture from first report to close-out
- Notes, outcomes and follow-ups attached to a single record
- Trends surfaced so recurring issues don't go unnoticed
Reports
Everything an auditor or client asks for, ready to export.
- Compliance and placement roll-ups across every branch
- Filter by branch, date range or category in seconds
- Built from the same records consultants already enter — nothing re-keyed
