Here’s what the key terms mean when you see them in MiraDay.

​
Agent

Mira, MiraDay’s AI agent, executes tasks on your behalf: understanding requirements, searching, evaluating, and delivering results. Mira works independently and brings you in at key decisions.

​
Agent Team

The teammates Mira brings in to work a task with it, each owning a part. Every candidate search runs with at least one sourcing teammate, and hard ones get several. For other tasks, Mira assembles a team when it helps, or you can turn it on yourself. See Agent Team.

​
Teammate

A member of an Agent Team. Mira is the team lead; teammates are the agents Mira brings in, each owning part of a task, such as people search (Scout), general research (Rowan), or fact-checking (Theo).

​
Channel

A channel is the space for one task, a conversation with Mira. Most often it’s a sourcing request: you describe a role and Mira delivers candidates, but a channel can be any request you give Mira. The channel is also where an Agent Team divides the work and collaborates on it. Channels are saved in the sidebar, so you can come back anytime, pick up where you left off, ask for more candidates, or adjust your criteria.

​
Skill

A reusable workflow. Type / in the channel input to invoke a Skill instead of describing the same requirements from scratch; the Skill name appears as a chip in your message. Mira ships with built-in Skills, and you can create your own through conversation with skill-creator, import them as files, or manage them in your Skills settings.

​
Ideal Candidate Profile

A structured summary of your search that Mira proposes before searching, in three lists: Must-Have, Nice-to-Have, and Avoid. You review and edit it, and the search runs against it once you confirm.

​
Candidate pool

What you get back from a search: a curated pool of candidates who match your requirements. Each person comes with a name, current role, work experience, education, a Qualifications assessment of why they’re relevant, and contact details. In classic recruiting, a shortlist means the vetted final list of roughly 3 to 6 candidates left after outreach and screening. Mira’s output is the broader, reasoned, sourced set, so we call it a candidate pool, not a shortlist.

​
Qualifications

Mira’s per-candidate assessment for your search: it checks the candidate against your must-haves one by one, showing where they meet, where the evidence is uncertain, and where they fall short, with the evidence behind each, plus an overall label: Good Match, Partial Match, or Low Match. It’s specific to your search, not a generic bio.

​
MRE (Mira Reasoning Embedding)

MRE is the reasoning-based retrieval model behind Mira’s sourcing. Most search tools match on surface similarity: they can tell that two profiles look related, but not why. MRE reasons first. When MRE reads your requirement, it works out what you’re really asking for and which underlying signals to look for, then searches on that reasoning rather than on keywords or look-alikes. That’s why you can describe a role in plain language: a request like “has taken a product from 0 to 1” becomes a search for the signals behind it, such as founding-team roles and early-stage company history.

​
Mira Browser Extension

The Mira Browser Extension browses the web on your behalf, through your own logged-in browser session. It can reach LinkedIn, company websites, your ATS, and other platforms you’re signed into to search for candidates and gather information. This is user-driven browser automation, not a platform-level integration. Useful when you need data that’s not in MiraDay’s built-in sources. See Browser Extension.

​
Credit

The unit you “spend” when using MiraDay. Searches and contact reveals consume credits. You can see how many a channel used in its details.
