Structured hiring · AI-powered
Hiring your first 5–50 people shapes everything. Most founders wing it. Matty gives you structure and clarity without hiring a full talent lead.
The problem
Without a defined process, decisions are inconsistent. Different interviewers look for different things. The best candidate doesn't always win — the most confident one does.
You post a job when someone quits. You interview whoever applies. There's no real brief, no agreed success signals, no shared standard. It's stressful and it shows.
At 20 people, one bad hire in a key role can derail a team. The cost isn't just financial — it's momentum, culture, and trust. Most early-stage teams only notice this in hindsight.
What matty is
Matty isn't a job board or an ATS. It's a structured hiring system that helps you think clearly about who you're hiring and why — before the first CV lands.
Why not just use ChatGPT?
ChatGPT can help you draft a job description. It can't give you a structured hiring system built for how early-stage companies actually work.
General-purpose. Useful for drafting. But it doesn't know your role, your team, or your hiring context — and it won't hold you accountable to a consistent process.
Purpose-built for early-stage hiring. Structured by design. Every output connects to a coherent process — from role definition through to decision-making.
How it works
Start with what success actually looks like — not just the job title. Matty helps you articulate the outcomes you're hiring for, not just the tasks.
Matty creates a structured interview guide aligned to your success signals. Every interviewer knows what to assess and why.
Each interview follows a clear structure. You gather comparable evidence across candidates rather than vibes and gut reactions.
Debrief with your team against shared criteria. Matty helps you reach a clear, defensible decision — and document your reasoning.
Who it's for
Running your first real hiring processes without a dedicated recruiter or HR lead. You want structure without bureaucracy.
Hiring into your function for the first time. You know what good looks like — matty helps you build a process that finds it.
Somewhere between 10 and 100 people. Growing fast enough that bad hires hurt, but too lean for an internal talent team.
If you already have a dedicated talent team and a working process, matty probably isn't the right fit. It's designed for teams that are still figuring it out.
Pricing
Less than a job board post. A fraction of what you'd pay an agency. Unlimited roles, structured interview plans, and a consistent process for every hire you make.
No contracts. No setup fees. No per-seat pricing. Just a straightforward monthly subscription.

Twenty years building and running talent functions across early-stage and high-growth companies. Matty is a distillation of what actually works — not theory, not best practice frameworks, but the structured approach that consistently produces better hires in teams that don't have the luxury of a full talent team.
It was built because most hiring advice is either too generic or too enterprise. Early-stage teams need something practical, grounded, and actually usable.
Every hire you make without a clear process is a risk. Matty gives you the structure to get it right — without adding headcount to do so.
