Try it on your own search
Stop building boolean strings. Just describe the person.
Type one sentence and I plan the search, read GitHub, public LinkedIn and Crunchbase records, and the open web live, then hand back a ranked shortlist with the reasoning behind every name. No filters to learn, no export to clean up, no sales call to sit through.
- One sentence in, a ranked shortlist out. No boolean, no filters, no seat to buy.
- Read live at search time, not from a database that went stale last quarter.
- Watch every step as it runs, and see why each name made the list.
- Staff backend engineers in NYC who shipped Rust in production
- Series A fintechs in SF under 50 people, growing headcount this year
- Maintainers of fast-growing Rust web frameworks on GitHub
