Before Uplers, screening 60 CVs for 3-4 interviews often led to settling for average talent. Uplers changed that: I now have 2 super high-quality hires from just 15 profiles.

After reviewing 600 profiles and taking 18 interviews with no results, Uplers changed everything. From their first 10 curated profiles, I shortlisted 6 - better than anything I’d found before.

Hiring as a Founder is Broken

You have two options—both not ideal. We built a third.

Job Boards = Chaos

Job Boards = Chaos

Post on Linkedin or Naukri, get flooded with 500+ irrelevant CVs. Spend weeks filtering through unqualified candidates.

500+ irrelevant applications
Time You Don't Have

Time You Don't Have

As a founder, your time is your most valuable asset. Yet you're stuck reviewing resumes instead of building your product.

40+ hours wasted sourcing
Agencies = Expensive

Agencies = Expensive

Traditional agencies charge 8-10% of annual salary. For a 20L hire, that's ₹1.5-2L just in recruitment fees.

₹2L+ typical agency fee
