Our Story

Built by a Founder Who Saw Hiring Break from the Inside.

For years I watched brilliant engineers get rejected by ATS systems because they wrote "led" instead of "managed." The system was optimizing for keywords, not humans.

After leaving, I started a company and spent 15 hours a week reading resumes — the same broken system from the other side. So I built the tool I wished existed.

"I'm personally onboarding every early user. Book time with me directly."

FAQ

Questions? We've Got Answers.

Is this a real product or a side project?+

CurriculoATS is a full-time venture backed by operators and engineers who've been in your shoes. We're not a weekend project — we're in production, serving real customers, with a roadmap that moves every week.

How is AI scoring different from keyword matching?+

Keyword matching checks if "Python" appears 3 times. Our AI reads what candidates actually accomplished — revenue generated, team sizes led, systems shipped — and reasons about fit the way a great hiring manager would. It writes a full paragraph explaining the score.

Can I import existing candidates?+

Yes! We support CSV imports, LinkedIn profile imports, and one-click migration from Greenhouse, Ashby, Workable, and Lever. Your data is yours.

How long does setup take?+

15 minutes, seriously. Post your first job, set your scoring criteria, and your branded careers page goes live immediately. No onboarding calls, no implementation managers, no "we'll schedule a kickoff".

What's the catch with the Starter plan?+

There isn't one. The Starter plan is permanently free for founders who are just starting out — five active job postings, 1,000 candidates ranked by Impact Score, basic candidate tracking, and AI resume screening. When you need to scale, upgrade to Pro for $100/mo ($50/mo early-bird). No credit card required.

What if I only have a few applicants?+

Even better. Our AI still scores and reasons about every candidate, saving you hours of reading. Plus, you get pipeline tracking, scheduling, and a professional careers page — even on the free plan.
