For recruiters
Hire on skills and relevant experience, backed with evidence
Post a job and see the candidates who match it. Candidates are judged by how well their skills fit, and how many years of experience they have that is specifically relevant to what you need.
Free to start, Swiss-built
A dense pool of small candidate cards. A network builds across every card in the pool, then narrows back in on two of them, which take on colour. Their two records open beside the pool.

Set the post up, then run it your way
Paste a job ad, get a draft
Paste the job ad you already have. The job title, the skills and the years of experience are filled in for you.
Stages you name
Name the stages the way your team works, and drag candidates through them.
Chat with any candidate in one place, on the platform or not
When you message a candidate, the message goes to the email address the candidate gave. The candidate can reply from their own inbox. You see the reply on the platform, where you sent the message.
The work nobody wants
Let machines handle the boring stuff
The reading, the typing and the remembering are ours. Deciding who to talk to is yours.

A log that remembers why
Every add, move, rejection and message is written down. The log names the person who acted and the reason they gave. Six months later the board still answers why this candidate and not that one.
Relevant experience
Has this person done this job before?
Skills say what someone can do. A past role says whether someone has already done it. The two are read apart, so you can see which of the two is missing.
You decide who counts as experienced
The board starts with roles taken from your post and from the candidates on it, and says so. The set is yours from there. Add the role you actually mean, and drop the role you do not.
We picked these roles from the job post and from your candidates. Edit them to decide who counts as experienced.
A badge on the role, and the reason behind it
A past role that earned credit wears a badge, and the badge names the relation that earned it. A role that earned nothing wears no badge at all.
You consider Platform Engineer as relevant experience, and the candidate's Site Reliability Engineer role covers the work of Platform Engineer.
Site Reliability Engineer is one of the roles you named, so it counts in full. Backend Developer sits in the same field as DevOps Engineer, so it counts in part. Support Engineer earns nothing, and says nothing.
Skills given depth by context and relations
We capture the nuance of how one skill relates to another via a carefully maintained relation system. Candidates show their skills in context with work experience, and not simply as a list of words.
Candidate's relevant skills
Although this candidate doesn't list React, we can infer high coverage of it from how their skills relate to React.
