Let AI handle the process. Let recruiters create the magic.

Internal recruiting was never meant to be a sourcing sweatshop. It's how candidates first feel your company. We automate the funnel so your team can do what only humans can tell your story, read the room, and turn great candidates into future colleagues.

The funnel is the bottleneck

Automate tasks. Amplify human connection.

Your recruiters were hired to judge talent and represent your brand. Today they spend their day pasting messages into LinkedIn. The funnel is where the bottleneck lives and where AI belongs.

80%

of recruiter time is spent on top-of-funnel sourcing not evaluation.

1 in 9

sourced candidates ever reach a hiring-manager interview.

How it works

AI runs the funnel. Recruiters run the moments that matter.

Three steps. One loop. A clean handoff between machine speed and human judgment so candidates only ever meet your best self.

Stood up two new engineering hubs in 14 weeks without opening offices.

Customer needed 28 senior engineers across India and Poland to follow-the-sun a US-led platform team. Indra mapped equivalent comp bands, surfaced 400+ qualified profiles, and our recruiters ran calibrated loops with the US hiring managers from week one.

"It felt like we hired an internal recruiting org overnight, except they shipped faster than ours ever did."

Rebuilt a 40-person product org for 48% of the loaded cost, same bar.

PE thesis required a 40% G&A reduction in 12 months. We re-leveled every role, identified tier-2 hub equivalents, and re-hired the org under our interview standard — preserving Staff / Principal density and shipping cadence.

"Our board stopped asking about hiring after month three. The numbers spoke."

funnel cost vs agencies

42 engineers, designers, and GTM hires in 11 weeks after the round closed.

Customer closed a $90M Series B on a Friday and needed to deploy capital into headcount immediately. We dropped in a pod of 4 recruiters, 2 sourcers, and Indra on Monday. Parallel loops, weekly calibration, bar-raiser on every offer.

"We've used three retained firms. None could have done a quarter of this in the same window."

For startups

Build the founding team. Pay like a seed-stage company.

The founder package

Everything an in-house head of talent would build. In week one.

Eight pillars, delivered as living documents and live process. Yours to keep, evolve, and hand to your first internal recruiting hire.

01
Leveling guide

Career ladders from IC1 to Staff/Principal, mapped to scope, ambiguity, and impact so every offer is defensible.

02
Competency model

Role-specific signals and rubrics so every interviewer scores against the same bar, not a gut feel.

03
Compensation package

Cash, equity bands, and refresh logic benchmarked against your last round and your stage, not LinkedIn averages.

04
Interview process

End-to-end loop design: phone screen, technical, system / craft, values, executive close. Calibrated weekly.

05
Candidate experience

Every touchpoint scripted for warmth and speed. Sub-9-day time-to-offer is the baseline, not the brag.

06
Standard branding

Outbound templates, careers page narrative, and recruiter voice that sound like your founders wrote them.

07
Debrief process

Structured debriefs with written evidence per competency. No 'I just liked them.' No revisionism after offers.

08
Bar raiser program

Trained bar raisers with veto power on every loop, so hire #50 still feels like hire #5.
