Hi Product Hunt Community!
I’m Mrinal, one of the founders of Bolto (YC S23).
Bolto is an AI-powered recruiting and HR platform. We assess candidates using AI and match them to companies.
For candidates:
Candidates take our AI interview and technical assessments. We combine this info along with their resume, Github profile, and any other info they provide to create a Bolto candidate profile.
For companies:
Companies who upload or type in their job description on our platform are shown candidates that our AI algorithm believes have a high probability of success in their role based on all of their profile information. Once a company makes a hire, they can run payroll and HR on our platform as well.
Our story:
We struggled mightily with hiring at our last startup. We hated having to source, interview, hire, manage, and pay candidates all on separate platforms and wished it could all be done in one place.
We also, like many of you, have been reading articles about how AI is going to completely replace human workers. We don’t believe in this future and are deeply passionate about using AI to create jobs, not take them away. We want to help companies find the absolute best fits for their roles, empowering them to succeed and continue hiring more great humans.
Who is Bolto for?
We’re starting with software engineers on our platform, so our ideal user is anyone who is hiring engineers! That being said, we find the companies who benefit the most from our services are those who are growing and making multiple hires, but might not have the patience or budget to hire a recruiting agency or staff multiple recruiters.
How are we different?
We are the very first all in one recruiting and HR platform in the world! There is no other company that from start to finish, can handle sourcing, interviewing, hiring, paying, and managing employees.
Why are we launching on product hunt?
We got on Product Hunt ourselves a couple months ago when the CEO, Rajiv, commented on our tweet about our YC launch and said we had to try PH! We’ve found an incredible community here filled with smart, thoughtful people who take time out of their day to give invaluable product feedback.
We’ve also found some awesome products that we now use!
We want to thank the Product Hunt community in advance for their support and feedback – we can’t wait to hear what you all think of Bolto!

Congrats on the launch, Bolt Team! Hiring is one of the more challenging parts of being a founder -- we have had a hard time with the interview part of the process and making sure AI isn't being used to misrepresent their skillset or experience. Does Bolt have a way to detect if AI tools are being used during the AI interview or technical assessments?
Bolto
@kendra_wilkins Such an important question. Products like interview coder are making this super hard. Some steps we're taking:
Phased out leetcode-style interviews and now do take home assessments, live debriefs, and live coding
Human reviews of every candidate
Automatic detection of pauses, leaving the tab, etc
Not perfect yet, but we're working on it!

Though I finished hiring last week, I feel really excited to build my dream team with Bolto in the future.
Feel like someone perfect to our team is going to join our team!
Congratulations. Good luck :)

@pritraveler Love that energy! We’re here for whenever you’re ready to build the next chapter of your dream team. Cheers to what’s ahead!
i love this a lot - do something similar for reallygood, but i wonder if you could help us as well? (freelance/agency sourcing, as opposed to traditional recruiting)
also -do you find workers that haven't taken the AI test or just evaluate the ones who come through ?

Dear @Bolto, congratulations on the launch! Which countries’ payroll and benefits services are supported for Pay and Manage, and how do you handle multi-currency payments?
