What you need to know.
Before the cell-by-cell detail.
Eolia (Lyon, since 2005) is a traditional French ATS/CRM with a solid installed base (agencies, temp, public sector) and multi-posting via Xtramile (the same aggregator as Marvin). Eolia's AI remains limited to CV/job matching (2020-era). Marvin brings the modern AI stack (note-taker, sequenced multichannel outreach, MCP Copilot, AI Copilot + MCP) Eolia lacks — without giving up ATS/CRM fundamentals.
