Open HR: Verified employment references, scored by science.

Your prof. rep dies every time you change jobs. Refs get requested but never called. Feedback stays locked in companies you've left. Open HR fixes this. Workers collect verified refs from peers, scored using I-O psych into a portable RefScore — a Big 5 profile based on real prof feedback, not self-reporting. For employers: compare workers with verified, science-backed data instead of gut-feel phone calls. Built in Bordeaux. GDPR-native. End-to-end encrypted. No data selling — ever.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Johnathen, founder of Open HR. I built this because I watched talented people, myself included, get passed over for jobs they deserved all because there was no way to prove what they'd actually done. References that never get called. Feedback that never follows you. Open HR fixes that. You collect verified feedback from everyone you've worked with: supervisors, peers, direct reports, clients, and mentors. You keep it. It travels with you. This marks our global launch after a closed beta period. The product is live, the infrastructure is EU-sovereign, and we're ready for you to try it. What I'd love from you: try it, break it, tell me what's missing. I'll be here all day responding.
