Fixing recruiting. For good.

Paraform is a recruiter-first marketplace that helps companies hire top talent 3x faster by matching them with expert recruiters equipped with AI powered tools. Each search compounds the network’s intelligence, improving speed, accuracy, and match quality.


As AI automates lower-skill tasks, work becomes more top-heavy—driven by creativity, judgment, and expertise. Rather than being replaced, we believe recruiters will become more important than ever: they’ll be like sports agents, who guide top talent through high-stakes career moves.


Paraform’s new talent graph—based on strengths and passions—combined with expert human touch, will enable perfect, instant matches.

The platform IS the strategy

01

Customers, Customers, Customers

We consider it an privilege to serve our customers. We take it very seriously, as recruiting is always their number one problem. If it’s life or death for them, it’s life or death for us.
02

Recruiter-first, always.

While others try to replace recruiters, we’re doubling down. We believe they’ll only grow in importance—emerging as one of the most vital roles in society. Recruiters are core to our mission, and we’ll always build with their success in mind.
