👋 Hey Product Hunt!
I'm Kshitij, founder of MyKaya. We've built an AI-first platform that simplifies hiring processes via ChatGPT style interactions.
We'll break this down for you so that you can understand
But before that... 🥁
📖 What's our story?
We started with a scrappy prototype that I showed everyone. It was simple, had a typeform inspired webpage that did the following things:
1. Took candidate requirements
2. Matched an ideal candidate
3. Sent an email to the biz/employer with the CV of the candidate that was selected, mocking that the "candidate" had booked a meet with them
We always had an idea of how the product would look like, and started building an MVP that can be used by businesses.
🙈 Check out our embarrassing prototype here
❓ What's our why - and the problems that haunt us.
It's the 21st century and here are the problems job markets deal with:
Businesses:
1. Search for candidates on various portals and get 1000’s of results, even with specific criterias 🤡
2. Small teams sift through a pool of resumes for each job posts and likely come across irrelevant profiles consistently (I am a victim of this)
3. Hire an agency, pay them a fat cut for each successful hire.
4. Even with an agency, average time-to-hire is at staggering 44 days.
Candidates:
1. Draft new resumes. Create a cover letter. Apply on various portals. Repeat
2. Candidates have a poor understanding of their own skill sets as it’s spread across different mediums.
3. Graphic resumes hurt existing ATS systems, providing them with inaccurate details of the candidate. Thereby, hurting the chances of the candidate to be shortlisted for a role.
💁♀️ Enter MyKaya
We provide an interface which feels like home (ahem… ahem… ChatGPT 😉), allowing businesses to chat with “Kaya” their trust AI-assistant who matches the job requirements with profiles of existing candidates on the platform. This way:
- Businesses no longer have to go through 1000s of options 📃
And no longer have to sift through CVs and play email tennis with candidates asking about their $$$ expectations/availability. Once they mark a specific candidate as “interested”, the candidate is informed to book an interview as per the interviewers availability (think calendly).
- Candidates no longer have to draft multiple cover letters to woo companies 💌
We take a personalized survey of the candidate and understand more about them. Things like: what industry they have worked in, salary expectations, what they are currently working on, life goals etc. Hence, no inaccuracies arising from parsing their resumes on the platform as they enter their details manually (ensuring that information is up to date). Furthermore, if any changes are required, Kaya assists candidates with the modifications.
🤯 Does MyKaya excite you?
We’re super excited what MyKaya has been able to achieve with our demo preview within our inner circles. We are thrilled to extend this to the Product Hunt community!
MyKaya is currently running a free demo preview for biz/employers; the platform is completely free for candidates.

Thank you for helping us push MyKaya forward. Have a good one.

Congrats on the launch! Here's a piece of information I'm very curious about: if you can find people, you must have access to many talented individuals' resumes. How is this information obtained?
@kshitijdomadia Hey,really interesting approach with MyKaya. One quick question though—does it support integrating with existing HR systems or ATS? I'm wondering how smooth the transition would be for companies already using other software. Thanks!
@williamjosephparker that's in our game plan. We do plan on integrating major ATS's in the future to allow businesses to tap into their existing data and "talk" with it. As for now, we're prioritizing MyKaya's core feature, ie. Type-to-hire; and businesses that want to hire quick with minimal effort and time.
@kyrylosilin thank you so much! :)
We usually don't, many major platforms are also a victim of this. However, we do try to minimize this by regularly checking/updating our existing database.
Furthermore, we do plan on partnering with credentials providers (for eg. IELTS, Hackerank) in the future to award "cookie" points to those candidates who actually verify it and hence, will be ranked higher.
Kshitij, this is such a clever approach to streamline hiring! I love how MyKaya uses ChatGPT-like interactions to reduce the hiring hassle. 🎉 Can't wait to see this grow! Any plans for integrating feedback loops for continuous improvement? Just thinking about those MVP features!
@dance17219 yes we are. In fact, we're actively helping biz close positions at the moment and have opened a sign up page on our website.

I've been briefly working in the hiring process, recurring juniors and interns. I recall I would spend a lot on the back and forth emails. MyKaya seems quite interested and loves the clean and intuitive UI. The auto-match feature is also interesting. I'll take a look. Congrats on the launch @kshitijdomadia 🤠
