Initial impressions of the product are strong. I created an account and went through the job application flow myself to test it end-to-end. While doing so, I noticed a potential issue: after uploading a resume, if a newer version is uploaded, the system continues analyzing the previously uploaded file instead of the updated one.

Overall, the product feels solid and well-executed, and I’m looking forward to seeing how it evolves and whether it leads to successful job outcomes.

By the way, I work as a product manager and product architect, so it’s great to see the product in action from both a user and industry perspective.

Wow, I'm truly blown away by this platform! I think you might have found something truly ground-breaking. I was literally just playing around with Claude seeing if they can match jobs to people on my team, and it was failing pretty spectacularly. This could be a complete game changer with a lot of different use cases. I think it would be interesting to see if Clera can match my embedded recruiting firm with companies that are specifically looking for shorter term / contract recruiter roles for short term hiring sprints, and maybe Clera can optimize for things like big rounds just being raised, or scan LinkedIn for posts where those companies are posting contractor roles or individual hiring managers are posting contract recruiting roles for their respective teams. There's a good number of embedded / RPO firms out there that focus exclusively on this, so I think your solution would be veryyyy attractive. I'm happy to be a guinea pig for this as well :) Great work Alexander and team, you guys have NAILED this product from all aspects!

how can I use this app as I want to start a startup but no idea were to start.Can someone help me to know the process????

I made an account just to tell the world how shit this product really is. This is my thought process:

1. Oh a recruiter reaching out! I’m kind of excited!

2. Oh wait it’s clera. An AI tool pretending to be a human. Given vaguely human language responses and delays in communication to mimic a human.

3. Maybe I should give her a shot? Clera made no real introductions, because AI is gigantic matrix multiplication table word predictor running on GPU server racks.

4. The jobs Clera “offered” all had extra steps simply to apply, no promise of an interview. I’m not writing paragraphs to simply apply. That’s a lot of work for a maybe.

5. These kind of products will ruin LinkedIn.

6. Something has really gone wrong in this industry.

7. This is dehumanizing.

8. Oh wow Clera is asking for a review, which led me here.

The job search process has felt broken for a while, especially the hours spent tailoring resumes for roles that might not even be a fit. Love the idea of an AI agent doing the heavy lifting over iMessage. How does Clera handle the 'warm intro' side—is it a direct ping to the hiring manager?@sebastian_scott3

Assume there's an upside for the employers too? ie they get better matched candidates into their 'potential hiring pool'.
Are you looking much at the 'hiring side'?

I had a great experience using Clera during my recent job search. The platform’s ability to handle company-specific 'additional questions' allowed me to provide high-signal responses that actually showcased my background. It clearly makes a difference—I was able to secure an interview with one of the companies that I see great match. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a more tailored recruiting experience.

Nice. Love the idea and the video.

Are you planning to find more CTOs to become Member of Technical Staff ? :)

Across the recruiters we've worked with, our two strongest candidates so far have both come from Clera. Whatever you're doing on the sourcing/matching side is working

Looks really cool - can't wait to try when we restart hiring. Curious how do you source candidates - is it Clera users on the other side; or also off-platform candidates?

Big fan! Love how easy it is to get started and meeting all the great talent!

Congrats guys! Great team! On a side note: How do you find and match candidates?

It's a great product! Matched with a lot of roles that I found compelling and was presented with opportunities that I otherwise would not have had. The traditional job application process has really been disrupted with the advent of AI and automated job applications as well as automated job application reviews. I've had cases where I would apply for a position and a recruiter would reach out to me later for the exact same position and have no idea I already applied for it. I've also had cases where hiring managers would reach out to ask me to apply for positions that I've already been rejected for because my resume did not pass the ATS screen. Employers are clearly frustrated by the sheer volume of unqualified applicants they get on a regular bases because of these tools. I've even seen some companies try to get around this by asking applicants to make api requests as part of their job application to prove they're human. I think both employers and employees are frustrated by the new job application landscape and this seems like a great solution to use AI to improve the job application experience for everyone involved.
