How It Works

From your first brief to a boardroom-ready talent map. Here is exactly what happens, and why it works.

The Brief

Most searches go wrong
before they start

A vague brief leads to a misaligned search. Our onboarding stress-tests your priorities, builds a precise scoring framework, and sets hard disqualifiers upfront — so the client, your researchers, and our AI are all working from exactly the same criteria before a single name is researched.

Start with a rough JD, raw notes, or a blank page. We build the framework together.
Calibration questions surface the contradictions in your brief before they derail the search.
Every candidate is measured against what you are specifically looking for. Nothing else.
We still run briefing calls when nuance needs a conversation. The form does the heavy lifting first.

The Process

Six steps

Brief
01

You input a brief

Drop in a job description, rough notes, or anything in between. Our onboarding builds a precise scoring framework from whatever you give us, before a single name is researched.

Scan
02

We scan the entire internet

Our models go far beyond LinkedIn, scanning company bios, speaker lists, industry articles, academic papers, niche forums, and professional networks across the open web.

Find
03

We surface every relevant name

We go well beyond what a LinkedIn boolean search can find. Our process surfaces people who are not visible through standard sourcing: those without polished profiles, recent movers, and specialists active in their field but not their inbox.

Score
04

Multiple AI models score every option

Each candidate is run through multiple AI models and scored directly against your framework, including the disqualifiers and score caps set during onboarding. Consistent, calibrated scoring across every single name.

Review
05

Expert human review

Our researchers independently scan the market and review AI output, adding instinct, context, and experience. We validate the AI's assumptions and check every name that makes the cut.
