AI-NATIVE TALENT SEARCH
Your hiring bar, turned
into a search agent.
Puddle learns what you’re looking for, builds a custom hiring rubric, then deploys an AI agent to hunt for talent that actually fits.
START WITH THE BAR
Great hiring doesn’t start with a search.
Most sourcing tools ask for a title, a few filters and some keywords. But the people you actually want rarely fit neatly inside a search query.
Puddle starts by understanding the role — what matters, what doesn’t, and what separates a good candidate from the right one.
HOW PUDDLE WORKS
From what you want
to who you should meet.
One system carries your hiring criteria from the first conversation all the way through sourcing and evaluation.
- 01
Tell us who you’re looking for.
We sit down with your team to understand the role beyond the job description — the experience, skills, traits and signals that actually matter.
- 02
We build your hiring rubric.
Puddle translates what we learn into a structured definition of what great looks like — so your search isn’t built around keywords alone.
- 03
We build your search agent.
Your custom agent searches for talent through the lens of your rubric — looking beyond titles and keywords to find people whose experience actually matches what you need.
- 04
We surface the right people.
Instead of another list of profiles to sift through, you get candidates ranked against the criteria you defined from the start.
- Role requirements
- Must-have signals
- Experience profile
- Team context
- Dealbreakers
ALWAYS HUNTING
The best candidate might not be looking.
Puddle doesn’t wait for the right person to apply. Your agent continuously hunts for people who match your hiring bar — including talent you wouldn’t have found with a conventional search.

ONE STANDARD, END TO END
The same bar that finds them, evaluates them.
Your rubric doesn’t disappear once a candidate enters the process. Puddle carries the same criteria into every screen, interview and review.
FROM MATCH TO DECISION
Finding the right
people is only the start.
- Set the bar before you interview any candidate.
- Run every screen against the same bar every time.
- Give reviewers evidence, not guesswork.
EVIDENCE, NOT AI OPINIONS
Every recommendation
shows its work.
Puddle turns candidate evidence into a role-specific review packet: rubric observations, question coverage, authenticity signals, and the evidence behind each recommendation.
