Now accepting design partners

Hiring needs better inputs,
not better filters.

Hiring needs better inputs,
not better filters.

Resumes don't tell you who someone is. Job descriptions don't capture what your team actually wants. Kora rebuilds both, then matches on the result.

We're working with a small group of design partners through 2026. If you're hiring and willing to shape the product with us, we'd like to talk.

Where we sit

Most AI hiring tools filter faster. We fix what's getting filtered.

Resumes were never built to predict job performance, and job descriptions were never built to capture how teams actually decide. Every tool layered on top of them is optimizing the wrong thing.

THE REST OF THE CATEGORY

Better filters on broken inputs.

  • Rank candidates by resume keywords and job titles

  • Treat the job description as the full hiring brief

  • Rely on the data-sparse public profiles everyone can access

  • Delivers the obvious ranked list you could have made on your own

KORA

Better inputs, then a real match.

  • Uncover capabilities, motivations, and evidence beyond the resume

  • Capture what the team needs and what success actually looks like

  • Build richer profiles through direct candidate and company conversations

  • Show why each candidate fits, where the gaps are, and what to ask next

Our Approach

Profiles + Rubrics = Accurate Hires

We treat hiring like a data problem, not a volume problem. That means rebuilding the inputs on both sides of hiring before any matching happens.

Complete data → Profiles

Who candidates
actually are.

We capture what matters from everything a candidate produces: interviews, work samples, profiles, even resumes. Not a self-edited summary. The full signal.

Team needs → Rubrics

What your team
actually wants.

We capture how your team actually evaluates, from hiring discussions, decision criteria, and past hires you'd want to clone. Not a job description. The actual evaluation framework.

A real profile

See the signal, not the summary.

Every candidate scored against your rubric, with the evidence behind each score. Tradeoffs visible. The strongest candidates surface, including the ones a resume scan would miss.

HOW TO READ THIS PROFILE

Where this candidate sits

Kora supports multiple companies and multiple roles per company, so recruiters and fractional teams can manage a whole book in one place.

2

All the source material

Resume and interview Q&A are captured for every candidate. Traditional artifacts aren't missing; they help feed the profile.

3

Overall score

4

Career path

Most recent roles, at a glance. A quick read on someone's track record before you go deeper.

5

Rubric scores

Each criterion is something your team told us to evaluate. Scores 0 to 10, with traceable reasoning behind every one.

6

Applicant insights

A second pass, deeper than the score. What's worth leaning into, and what to probe further before you decide.

Live Partnerships

Built with the people who hire.

Kora is in production right now, running real roles for real teams. We're learning what works the same way our partners are: one search at a time.

Partnership

What being a design partner looks like.

Design partners use Kora on real roles, share what's working and what isn't, and shape the platform as we build it.

WHAT YOU DO

  • Run your live roles through Kora

  • Share the hiring artifacts that make a great rubric: discussions, decision criteria, past hires you'd want to clone

  • Give active feedback as you use the platform: what's working, what's missing, what's confusing

  • Take occasional 30-minute calls when we're sorting through a hard product decision

WHAT YOU GET

  • Founder-led placements. Our team runs every hire directly alongside you.

  • Real influence on the roadmap. The product is designed around what current partners need

  • Preferred terms while the partnership is active, with the option to continue afterward

  • First access to new features as they ship
