Amplify Search & Match August Release (2026.8)
What’s in this release
The August 2026 (2026.8) release for Amplify Search & Match adds candidate-match feedback controls, restores Boolean keyword entry, extends keyword refinement to manually added keywords, and improves location-based candidate filtering.
Thumbs Up/Down Feedback on Recommended Candidates
When reviewing recommended candidates on a job record, you can now give quick feedback on the results using a thumbs up or thumbs down control on the card. A thumbs down lets you add a comment explaining why, helping improve match accuracy over time.
Updated“Use Boolean” Toggle Restored in Required/Desired Keyword Search
The “Use Boolean” toggle is back in the Required/Desired/Excluded keyword search component, so users who prefer to write Boolean keyword strings can do so directly from the new keyword component.
NewRequired/Desired/Excluded Now Available for Manually Added Keywords
Manually added keyword chips in Keyword Search can now be toggled between required, desired, or excluded, the same fine-tuning previously available only for Autobuild-generated keywords.
UpdatedImproved Location Resolution for Autobuild/Automatch
Autobuild and Automatch can now determine a location for candidate filtering even when a job only has a zip code and country, improving proximity-based candidate filtering for jobs with limited address information.
