Code-Based Hiring Platform

A recruitment platform that matches candidates based on their actual code and work contributions rather than self-reported skills. Employers see real work samples and skill inference from GitHub/portfolio projects, reducing bias and resume padding.

Hiring signal quality is a genuine pain point right now as AI-generated resumes flood applicant tracking systems, making self-reported credentials even less trustworthy than they already were — employers are actively looking for ways to verify actual ability rather than claimed ability. CoderPad and HackerRank own the technical assessment space, but they test candidates on synthetic problems rather than surfacing real work history, which is a meaningful differentiation angle. The $5k–20k/mo revenue band is plausible for a small team selling to engineering-heavy SMBs, but getting to that number requires closing enough seats to matter, and seat-based or per-hire pricing both have well-known compression problems in recruiting downturns. The biggest risk is the cold-start problem on the candidate side: developers with strong public GitHub profiles often get recruited passively and may not bother creating another profile, leaving the platform with the candidates employers least want.
