What is inside
Built around your desk, not ours.
Generic sourcing software makes your team adapt to a shared database and a shared idea of fit. We start with the market knowledge your recruiters already use.
Live fit scoring
Evaluate each candidate against the job order using role-specific criteria and show the reasons behind the score.
Ranked daily brief
Deliver the strongest candidates in a focused shortlist with evidence, concerns, and suggested next steps.
Workflow integration
Move approved candidates into the ATS, CRM, email, or task flow your recruiters already use.
Four-week build
We do the building. Your team does the placing.
The first version is installed against real job orders, tuned with recruiter feedback, documented, and handed over as a system your team owns.

Client-owned deployment
Documented and installed in your stack
Your candidate data
Source records, enrichment, decisions, and shortlist history remain in your environment.

Your operating workflow
Review, approval, ATS handoff, and reporting match the way your desk runs.

Best fit
For recruiters spending too much of the week searching.
The strongest fit is a recruiting desk with a defined market, repeat searches, clear placement judgment, and a sourcing bottleneck.
Solo recruiters
Give a focused desk the research capacity of a larger team without adding another generic tool.
Boutique agencies
Create one consistent sourcing and qualification layer across a small group of producers.
Niche specialists
Cover markets where specialist sources and nuanced fit rules matter more than database size.
Candidate-led search
Map suitable companies and roles around a high-value candidate using a repeatable research flow.
Start with one search
Bring us a live job order your team is tired of sourcing manually.
We will look at the niche, the fit logic, the available sources, and the workflow needed to turn it into a repeatable system.
