How it works

Judged on how you work. Decided before anyone sees a face.

Both sides answer the same questionnaire, so the app compares people on the same scale instead of comparing a résumé to a job ad. Matches are blind until both say yes, and every match ends in an in-person meetup with a short shared task.

Free to join. In your browser, on iPhone and on Android.

Example screen, simplified from the app.

The seven steps

  1. One questionnaire, tap only

    Practical fit, where you're headed, how you work, how you like to be managed or how you manage. No free text about yourself. What we match on

  2. Stories instead of a résumé

    Short choose-your-path work scenarios with no answer key. Story arcs

  3. Vouches from real people

    References answer tap questions privately. People you meet through the app add their own. Vouches

  4. A blind card, one at a time

    Fit labels, experience and vouch counts. No name, photo, age or gender. Blind matching

  5. A private decision, then the reveal

    Within 2 business days. Names appear only if you both say yes. What's hidden, and when

  6. Side by side, phones down

    A short activity at the table, then the conversation. Meetups

  7. Close the book

    Outcomes and what people observed make the next match better. Closing the book

What we publish, and what we don't

We explain what the matching looks at and why, in plain language, on these pages. We don't publish the weights, formulas or cut-offs. Anything published precisely becomes something people optimize for, and the point is to reward how you actually work.

What we do promise: no protected trait, age, gender or photo is ever read by the matching, nobody can pay to rank higher, and every update is tested for fairness by group before it goes live. How we test it
