Hiring software for startups who can’t afford hiring mistakes.
Smatchd helps startups hire with clarity from day one — by making salary, expectations, and fit explicit before candidates apply. No applicant overload. No black-box scoring. No wasted interviews.
Why startups need different hiring software
Startups don’t hire at volume — they hire for impact. One misaligned hire can slow momentum, drain time, and set teams back months. Traditional recruitment software is built for scale, not clarity.
Every hire matters
Startups don’t have the luxury of filtering hundreds of low-signal applications. You need alignment early — not noise.
Time is limited
Founders and early teams can’t spend weeks screening misaligned candidates or running avoidable interviews.
Clarity builds trust
Clear salary ranges, work mode, and expectations attract the right candidates — and repel the wrong ones automatically.
