What Hireex does ### 4.1 The morning shortlist Each morning Hireex hands the user about ten roles worth a real look. Each one comes with: - A short reason why it fits. - A one-line tip on how to pitch oneself for it. - A one-tap Apply or Skip — and the agent moves to the next. The user stays anonymous to the company until they decide to apply. ### 4.2 What runs while you sleep Hireex looks everywhere a real opportunity hides. The seven sources surfaced on the landing's "Discovery" section: 1. **Big job boards** — every fresh posting, the moment it lands. 2. **Company careers pages** that no aggregator catches. 3. **Funding announcements** — new money usually means new headcount. 4. **Hiring threads** where founders post in person. 5. **Conferences** — speaker rosters, companies on the move. 6. **Maker handles** — founders saying "we are hiring" in their own feeds. 7. **Quiet signals** — new employees announcing day one. By the time the user wakes up, the noise is gone and what is left is theirs to read over coffee. ### 4.3 The three-step flow 1. **Tell us about you.** Drop a resume in once. No long forms, no checkboxes, no hoops. 2. **Sleep on it.** An agent reads every new posting overnight. 3. **Wake up to your shortlist.** About ten roles each morning, with a one-line pitch tip per role. Apply or Skip; the agent jumps to the next. ### 4.4 Who it is for Engineers, designers, product managers, marketers — anyone tired of the chase. If the user wants a better role but cannot stomach another evening on a job board, Hireex was built for them. ## 5. Pricing and access - **Pre-launch.** Hireex is opening to a small group of founding members at launch. - **Founding-member pricing** will be announced when the waitlist opens to its first cohort. - **No free tier, no trial yet.** The fastest way in is the waitlist at https://hireex.ai/#waitlist. ## 6. Privacy and email behaviour - The user stays anonymous to the hiring company until they decide to apply. - Hireex looks at job postings on the user's behalf — it never posts the user's resume out into the world. - No accounts to manage, no recruiters in the user's inbox, no inbox theatre. - **Email cadence is two messages, total:** one welcome at signup, one note when it is the user's turn at launch. Nothing else. - Every email carries an RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe link plus a `List-Unsubscribe` header that mail clients (Gmail, Apple Mail, Outlook) honour as the inbox-level unsubscribe button. - Email addresses on the waitlist are stored in the Resend `hireex` audience, used only to send those two messages, and removed on unsubscribe. No third-party advertising trackers run on the landing. - Postal address (CAN-SPAM placeholder): Hireex · Unit 12, Park Royal Business Centre, 9-17 Park Royal Road, London NW10 7LQ, United Kingdom. - Security contact: see /.well-known/security.txt — `security@hireex.ai`. ## 7. Frequently asked questions The visible FAQ on the landing carries the short forms; the answers below are the authoritative long forms. ### What is Hireex? A quiet job-hunting agent. Drop your resume in once. Wake up to a short list of roles worth your time, with a one-line tip on how to pitch yourself for each. ### When can I use it? Hireex is opening to a small group of founding members at launch. Save your spot on the waitlist and you will get one note when it is your turn — no spam, ever. ### Is it free? Founding-member pricing will be announced when the waitlist opens to its first cohort. There is no free tier or trial yet — the fastest way in is the waitlist. ### Who is Hireex for? Engineers, designers, product managers, marketers — anyone tired of the chase. If you want a better role but cannot stomach another evening on a job board, Hireex was built for you. ### What jobs does it find? Every new opening it can reach. Big aggregators, but also the company careers pages no aggregator indexes, the funding announcements that telegraph hiring before the listing goes live, the founder threads where roles are posted in person, the conference rosters and the quiet "first day at $newco" posts. The shortlist filters that universe down to about ten roles a morning that match the user. ### How is it different from LinkedIn or Indeed? LinkedIn and Indeed show the user everything and ask them to filter. Hireex hides the noise and shows only roles that fit, every morning. No accounts to manage, no recruiters in the inbox, no filters to set up. ### How is it different from Otta or Welcome to the Jungle? Otta, Wellfound, Welcome to the Jungle, Otta — they are job boards with better filters. Hireex is not a job board. It does not host listings. It reads listings on the user's behalf and only emails the ones that fit. No browsing. No saving searches. No daily-digest of fifty roles to scroll through. ### How is it different from a daily LinkedIn job-alert email? LinkedIn job alerts trigger on a saved search and email everything that matches. The result: forty roles a day, mostly noise. Hireex starts from the user's resume, scores every new opening across many more sources, and only surfaces a small fitted shortlist. ### Will recruiters get my information? No. Hireex looks at job postings on the user's behalf — it never posts the user's resume out into the world. The user stays anonymous until they decide to apply. ### How many roles will I see per day? About ten — the count adjusts so the shortlist is always worth reading, never overwhelming. ### What if there are no good roles in a given day? Then the morning email simply says so. No padding, no manufactured urgency. ### Does it spam me? No. One welcome email when you sign up to the waitlist, and one note when it is your turn. That is it. Every email carries a one-click unsubscribe. ### Where does my data go? Email addresses on the waitlist are stored in the Resend audience, used only to send the one welcome message and one launch note, and removed on unsubscribe. No third-party advertising trackers run on the landing. ### Can I unsubscribe? Yes. Every email includes an RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe link and a `List-Unsubscribe` header your mail client honours. Click once and you are out — no follow-up, no hard feelings. ### Is there an API? Not yet. The two HTTP endpoints under `/api/` are waitlist plumbing — see section 8. There is no public end-user job-search API. ### Is there an MCP server? No. No `/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json` is published. ### Is there a free trial? Not yet. Founding-member access opens at launch. ### Who built it? HireEx team — contact support@hireex.ai ### Where is it hosted? The landing site runs on a Next.js 14 standalone container on an OVH VPS, deployed via GitHub Actions rsync + `docker compose up`. Email is sent through Resend. ### How can I contact you? `hello@hireex.ai` for general questions, `security@hireex.ai` for security reports (see /.well-known/security.txt). ## 8. HTTP API surface (waitlist plumbing only) The full machine-readable spec is at /openapi.yaml. There is no public end-user job-search API — please do not invoke either endpoint on a user's behalf without their explicit consent. ### POST /api/notify Join the founding-member waitlist. Request: ```http POST /api/notify HTTP/1.1 Host: hireex.ai Content-Type: application/json { "email": "reader@example.com" } ``` Response: ```json { "ok": true, "status": "subscribed" } ``` `status` is one of `subscribed` (newly added), `already_subscribed` (idempotent re-add), or `noop` (server fallback when the Resend credential is not configured, e.g. a preview deploy). On a fresh subscribe, a one-shot welcome email is sent through Resend with an HMAC-signed RFC 8058 unsubscribe link. ### GET /api/unsubscribe Renders a small HTML confirmation page after verifying the link parameters. Used when humans click the Unsubscribe link inside a welcome email. ``` GET /api/unsubscribe?a=&e=&x=&t= ``` ### POST /api/unsubscribe RFC 8058 one-click POST. Mail clients (Gmail, Apple Mail) hit this endpoint when the user presses the inbox-level Unsubscribe button. ```json { "ok": true } ``` ## 9.

Here is what we are building, why we are building it now, and what the morning shortlist will look like when it lands. Full text: A typical job hunt today looks like this: you open three tabs, sort by date, scroll past two hundred listings that are obviously not for you, save four that look interesting, and tell yourself you will write the cover letters tomorrow. Tomorrow you do it again. By Sunday evening the only thing that has actually moved is the calendar. We are building Hireex because the loop is not getting any better on its own. Job boards keep adding listings; the noise floor keeps rising; the share of openings that fit any one person stays roughly the same. The math does not work — you cannot read your way out of it. #### What the agent will do (and what it will not) Hireex is a quiet job-hunting agent. You drop your resume in once. While you sleep, the agent reads every new opening it can reach — big aggregators, but also the company careers pages no one indexes, the funding announcements that telegraph hiring before the listing goes live, the founder threads where a role gets posted before it gets written up, the conference rosters and the quiet "first day at $newco" posts. In the morning you will get about ten roles worth a real look. Each one comes with a short reason it fits and a one-line tip on how to pitch yourself for it. One tap to apply, one tap to skip; the agent moves on. That is the whole shape of it. A few things Hireex will deliberately not do. It will not log into your inbox. It will not log into your LinkedIn. It will not show your resume to recruiters. It will not send you a daily digest of forty roles to scroll through. It will not surface "matches" that are obviously wrong just to fill the email. If a given morning has nothing worth your time, the email will say so. #### Why now Two things changed in the last eighteen months that make this finally tractable. First, models that can read a long job posting and an actual resume side-by-side, and tell you in plain English whether they line up, are now cheap enough to run on every new listing — not just on a small saved-search slice. The unit economics of "read everything overnight" finally work. Second, the discovery surface itself fragmented. Five years ago "the job market" mostly meant LinkedIn plus a handful of aggregators. Today the best openings live in places no aggregator catches: a YC company's careers page that went up an hour ago, a founder's post on Bluesky, a conference speaker page that quietly says "we are hiring", a payroll-software changelog that mentions a new VP. Reading all of that by hand is not realistic; reading it on your behalf is exactly the kind of work agents are good at. #### The morning shortlist The shortlist is the artifact we are most precious about. The shape we have settled on, after a lot of wrong turns: About ten roles. Not five (too thin some days), not twenty (too many to actually read). Each role on a single card: company, title, one-line reason it fits you, one-line pitch tip if you decide to apply. Apply or Skip — no third option, no "save for later" pile that grows forever. No padding. If a morning is quiet, the email reads "quiet morning — three roles, one strong" and stops. We would rather under-deliver on volume than train you to skim past us. You stay anonymous to the company until you decide to apply. The agent reads on your behalf; it never posts your resume into the world. #### How you will know it is working A useful agent earns back time and gives back a feeling of having a fair shot at the right roles. The metrics we care about, in order: Hours back per week. If Hireex is doing its job, the time you used to spend scrolling job boards on Sunday evening is yours again. We will track this honestly — when we know, we will tell you. Apply rate per shortlist. Roughly: do you tap Apply on at least one of the ten roles in a given morning? If the answer is "almost always yes", the shortlist is fitted; if it drifts toward "almost always no", we have a model to retrain or a source to drop. Time from waitlist to a real reply. The whole point is to compress the chase. If you join Hireex in May and you are still chasing the same roles in August, we have not earned our keep. #### Where we are right now Hireex is pre-launch. The product is being built; the discovery pipeline is being tuned against real listings; the email format is being argued over more times than is healthy. Founding-member access opens to a small first cohort at launch — the waitlist is the way in, and there is no other way in yet. We will write here when something real changes — when the discovery surface widens to a new source we are proud of, when the morning shortlist hits a milestone, when we ship the first version of the live preview. No marketing emails, no growth-hacking sequences. One welcome note when you join the waitlist, one note when it is your turn at launch, and posts on this page as we have something honest to say. If you have made it this far: thank you. Save your spot on the waitlist if you have not already, and we will see you on launch day. Sip your drink. We will look for you. — HireEx
