Question 1

What is Parsli?

Accepted Answer

Parsli is the Salesforce-native resume intelligence layer built by Helpstone for staffing and recruiting teams. It turns resumes into structured Contact data, makes their full text searchable in Salesforce, and lets recruiters view and search individual resumes without leaving the candidate record.

Question 2

Is Parsli Salesforce-native?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Candidate data and uploaded resumes remain in Salesforce. Recruiters work with Salesforce records, search, automation, reporting, and security rather than a separate resume database.

Question 3

Does Parsli create Contacts or Leads?

Accepted Answer

Parsli is designed to create and update Contacts, not Leads. This supports recruiting workflows built around Contacts and Accounts.

Question 4

How does Parsli handle duplicate candidates?

Accepted Answer

Parsli can identify potential duplicate candidates and works with your existing Salesforce duplicate rules, helping recruiters review matches before creating another record.

Question 5

Can recruiters search the text inside resumes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Parsli puts the full text of each parsed resume on the Salesforce Contact, so recruiters can find candidates based on skills, experience, and other words in the resume. After opening a candidate record, they can separately search within the resume viewer and see those keywords highlighted in context.

Question 6

Does the viewer support Files and Attachments?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The viewer brings resumes stored in Salesforce Files and legacy Attachments into one viewing experience.

Question 7

What happens to our data if we stop using Parsli?

Accepted Answer

Your standard Salesforce data remains yours. Candidate records and the original resumes stay in Salesforce rather than in a separate Parsli database.

Question 8

Can Parsli work with resumes already in Salesforce?

Accepted Answer

The viewer can display supported resumes already stored in Salesforce. Existing files must be processed by the parser before their full text and extracted details become available for search and mapped fields.

Question 9

Can Parsli process more than one resume at a time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Recruiters can upload an individual resume or submit a batch for parsing into Salesforce candidate records.

Question 10

Can resumes be submitted by email?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Parsli supports an email-to-parse workflow for resume attachments, reducing the manual steps required to create candidate records.

Question 11

How much does Parsli cost?

Accepted Answer

Parsli is listed on AppExchange at $25 USD per user per month or $275 USD per user per year, with a two-week free trial. AppExchange is the authoritative source for current pricing.

Question 12

How does Parsli work with larger candidate databases?

Accepted Answer

Parsli makes resume content available in Salesforce. Search design depends on your data volume and Salesforce setup; we can help determine the practical approach for your organization.

Question 13

How difficult is Parsli to implement?

Accepted Answer

Parsli is installed directly in Salesforce and works with your existing Contact data model. Configure the field mappings you need, then begin parsing—without standing up a separate recruiting or search platform. The exact setup depends on your Salesforce configuration.
