What the AI does and what a person does

  1. Artificial intelligence (AI) reads each CV in full and rates every candidate against your vacancy’s requirements: hundreds, often thousands of CVs for a single shortlist.
  2. A person checks every shortlist before it is sent and can change it.
  3. You decide whom to meet.

Our mission

Employ artificial intelligence to make hiring simple and almost free (5–10 times below the market) — and to help companies and candidates find each other in the shortest possible time.

We will give 10% of all our profit to charity — to protect nature in Uzbekistan or to support children’s education. All donations will be published on this website with supporting documents.

Why ‘blind’

Orchestras found this first.

For a long time orchestras auditioned musicians face to face, and the same kinds of people kept winning the seats. Then they drew a screen between the jury and the musician. The jury heard only the playing — and the choices changed.

Recruitment agencies have the same bias, so we bring the screen to hiring. Both we and you see what each candidate has done and can do. Name, photo, age, gender and nationality stay behind the screen until you have chosen on merit.

  • Fairer decisions

    Choices rest on competence — not on a familiar surname, a photo, a year of birth or any other trait unrelated to merit.

  • Faster decisions

    A short profile per candidate, ranked against your role, instead of an inbox full of CVs.

  • Discreet for both sides

    Strong people who are employed today can be considered without being exposed. Your vacancy can stay confidential too.

Frequently asked questions

How much do your services cost?

Recruitment. The fee is 2.5% of the hire’s annual gross salary, or 4% with a pre-interview on real work cases and a report. You pay only when the candidate starts work. Example: a salary of UZS 20,000,000 a month means a fee of UZS 6,000,000. AI does most of the work and a person checks every shortlist, which is why our fee is 5–10 times below the market.
