The Problem

You're Hiring Blind,
And It's Costing You.

Problem 1

Resumes and Interviews Are Easy to Game

Candidates now use AI to optimize resumes and rehearse interview answers. You're seeing their best performance, not their real behavior.

Problem 2

Traditional Assessments Are Out of Reach

Pre-employment psychometric tests cost $50-$200 per candidate, take weeks to set up, and require psychologist interpretation. Most SMBs can't afford them.

Problem 3

Bad Candidate Hires Are Expensive

A mis-hired manager costs 3-5x their salary in lost productivity, team turnover, and replacement costs. One bad hire can set your team back 12+ months.

There's a better way!
