Free to start
Example candidate.
Passive candidates, open to talking
They aren’t applying for jobs, but they’ve told us they’re open to hearing about the right one.
Fewer messages for your team to chase
The first approach goes through Jill, so your recruiters spend their time on candidates who want to talk.
They agree before you meet
You’re introduced only once the candidate has agreed to the conversation.
“Instead of chasing people who never reply, we spent our time talking to candidates who wanted to talk to us.”
The problem
Inbound is noise.
Outbound is ignored.
AI has flooded both sides of hiring. Good applications disappear in the pile, and in-demand candidates ignore cold outreach.

What if the candidates Jill shows me aren’t quite right?
Just tell Jill. She learns from your feedback and refines her search, so the more context you give, the better the matches become.

No. Jill works alongside your talent team. She takes on the sourcing and the first pass, and your team runs the interviews and the offers.
