For people who hire once in a while and need to get it right

Big hiring software is built for recruiters who hire every week. You hire a few times a year, with a few people weighing in and nobody in HR. Resumes land in someone's inbox, the spreadsheet goes stale, and the decision comes down to gut feel.

Founders making a first hire
Your first hires shape the company. Get a real process without building one.
Nonprofits and small teams
Hire well on a tight budget, with your board or co-workers in the loop.
Boards and search committees
Volunteers reviewing together, privately, with everyone seeing the same thing.
Small businesses without HR
Stop sorting applications by hand between everything else you do.

How a hire runs

  1. Open the role

    Add the title, upload the job description, and choose what applicants send.

  2. Share one link

    Post your apply page on your site, LinkedIn, job boards, or anywhere else.

  3. Applications arrive sealed

    Only your hiring team can open them. Every applicant gets a confirmation from you.

  4. Get a recommendation

    Your hiring advisor reads every application and tells you who to talk to first and why.

  5. Decide together

    Everyone rates and comments. See where you agree, then make the call.

What an HR department would do for you

A hiring advisor that explains itself
Every applicant is read against your job description. You get a summary, strengths and gaps, a 0 to 100 fit score, and a plain-English reason for the ranking.
Interview questions written for you
Three questions for each applicant, aimed at the gaps that matter, so you aren't improvising in the interview.
Decide together
Invite co-founders, board members, or co-workers at no extra cost. Split votes are flagged so you talk them through before you decide.
A blind first look
Hide names, photos, and addresses during the first pass so experience speaks first.
A professional apply page
Your logo, your job description, and the fields you choose. Works on any phone.
Every applicant hears back
Automatic confirmations and one-click status updates, so nobody is left wondering.
Sealed and private
Resumes never travel as email attachments. Only your hiring team can open them.
Cleaned up when you're done
Files are deleted on a schedule you set after you fill the role. Applicants can ask for deletion any time.
