Develop Diverse vs. Copilot

Write inclusive job ads - with the tool built for it 

Copilot is a productivity assistant. 
 Develop Diverse is a performance engine for inclusive hiring content. 

Generic AI can’t remove bias from job ads. Use the platform designed to do just that — at scale.

Develop Diverse is trusted by leading companies

Why Copilot can’t replace Develop Diverse 

Copilot does a lot — just not inclusive hiring content.
Develop-Diverse-Writing-01

Built for inclusion, not just generation

Copilot creates content — but it’s not designed for inclusive hiring. Develop Diverse is purpose-built to detect and rewrite biased language.

Develop-Diverse-Performance-01

Smarter bias detection

Develop Diverse identifies subtle bias Copilot misses — from gendered wording to age and neurodiversity exclusions.

Develop-Diverse-Diversity-01

Guidance, not just output

Copilot gives you text. Develop Diverse gives you insight — with clear explanations for every inclusive rewrite.

Develop-Diverse-Teamwork-01

Scalable for Teams

Develop Diverse supports inclusive language across entire organisations. Copilot can’t match that depth or scale.

Copilot can draft a job post - but it won’t tell you if it’s costing you diverse talent.

Inclusive job ads lead to more qualified applicants

54%

increase in total applicants across customers*

68%

increase in female applicants across customers*

17%

increase in applicants from minority ethnic groups in AB Agri*

*These are outcomes only possible with a dedicated, scientifically validated platform - not a general AI tool. 

What you risk with Copilot alone 

Unconscious bias stays embedded in job ads 
Lack of consistency across TA teams and regions 
No accountability for inclusion progress 
Lost talent due to alienating or exclusive language 
 
Even well-written ads can push away top candidates — especially underrepresented groups. 
Only Develop Diverse can help you fix that.
