Most recruiting tools hand you volume. 300 resumes, and the screening is still your job.
Uplers hands you the shortlist. We start with who is best for the role, not who applied first.
We connect you with India's top 1%: engineers, designers, marketers, product managers. Hire them remotely from anywhere in the world. Or build your team on the ground in India. Both work.
Built for early-stage founders.
You are making your first 5-10 hires, not your 500th.
At this stage every hire shapes the company. A wrong one costs you months you do not have
Tell us what you need. You get 3 to 5 shortlisted profiles in 48 hours.
Every profile is skill-tested and background-checked by real people before it reaches you.
You interview. You choose. They start. They ship from week one.
The same talent already powers teams at GitLab, BrowserStack, Airbnb, and Darwinbox.
That bench is now open to founders building from zero.
What makes it different:
1. Shortlisted by people, not sorted by a bot. Skills tests and background checks come first.
2. 48-hour shortlist. Faster than any recruiter you have used.
3. Direct-hire model. You own the relationship. No markup sitting between you and your hire.
4. The risk sits with us. 90-day replacement on full-time hires. Lifetime replacement on contract hires.
Not sure what to pay remote talent in 2026? Our free Tech Salary Guide gives exact benchmarks by role, skill, and geography. No form to fill.
Hiring slow loses you the candidate, not the budget. Skip the resume flood. Start with the top 1%.
Can hiring teams give feedback on the first shortlist so the next batch gets tighter?

@naimzΒ Yes this is the exact process we follow. we send 2-5 profiles which we think are a good fit based on a call where we define expectations. If the output is not quite the same, we iterate it again with the client and then send the next 5. This feedback mechanism is what keeps us sharp
