Early access: keys are issued personally by the founder, usually same-day. Billing starts when you do — no card required for the free tier.

Opt-in talent access

We're building an opt-in talent pool — candidates who explicitly choose to be visible to employers. Nothing is shared without their consent: parsed profile only, contacts stay private until the candidate accepts an intro. Want early access when it opens?

FAQ

The short version.

What data do I need to send?
For /v1/score: the candidate's résumé or profile as plain text, and the job title + description. That's it — no files, no structured schema required. For /v1/jobs: just query params (role, country, remote, salary floor).
Do you store or train on our payloads?
No. Score requests are processed and returned; we don't use your candidates' or jobs' text to train models. Responses may be cached briefly for idempotency and cost control.
How does billing work right now?
Early-access simple: pick a tier, we send an invoice/payment link and issue your key the same day. Usage is metered per key per calendar month; the free tier just stops at its cap, paid tiers get overage billing.
Can we search your candidates?
Not yet — and never without their consent. The opt-in talent pool is being built now (see above). The API today is matching technology only: you bring the candidates and jobs.
