Kord AI was born out of frustration. As students and early-career builders, we kept seeing insanely talented people struggle to get noticed — not because they lacked skills, but because hiring today is broken. Resumes get filtered by outdated systems, great candidates get ghosted, and companies drown in irrelevant applications. The process is inefficient for both sides. We realized the problem wasn’t talent , it was signal. So we started building Kord AI to fix the discovery layer of hiring. Instead of resumes and keyword matching, we wanted a system that understands real skills, intent, and fit — almost like a smart connector between people and opportunities. Initially, we thought this would be a simple matching tool. But while building, talking to recruiters, founders, and candidates, we discovered the problem was deeper: Candidates don’t know how to position themselves Recruiters don’t have time to evaluate properly Opportunities move faster than traditional hiring pipelines So Kord AI evolved into an AI-powered bridge — helping candidates surface their true strengths and helping companies find signal in the noise. We’re still in the development phase, building in public, and shaping the product alongside early users and feedback from the community. Launching on Product Hunt isn’t just a milestone for us — it’s an invitation for people to help shape what hiring could become. We’re trying to solve the hiring by being an important layer — we’re building the experience we wish existed.
