Frequently asked questions

What stays with you.

Your client decides. You negotiate the offer and keep the relationship with the talent. Your client sees your firm, not our tool. ama works on top of your system of record.

Does ama replace my researchers?

No. ama prepares the research. Your researchers set the market, challenge the results and decide who is presented. Relationships, interviews and client trust stay with you.

Will my client see a tool instead of my firm?

The work carries your logo on the project, and you present it as your firm's work.

Can I trust the ranking?

Every name comes with its reasoning, criterion by criterion. You can challenge any ranking, and you decide the shortlist whatever the grade.

Where does the data come from, and where does it sit?

External sourcing uses public data only. Processing is GDPR-compliant and hosted in the EU. Customer and talent data are not used to train models.

What if my market is thin?

Coverage depends on professional profile data. Where a market is thin on it, such as skilled trades or parts of the public sector, ama says so before your free role starts.

What does it cost?

The price arrives with your free role, in a written offer, before the result.

Why we built it

I had to hire 650 people in a year. Nobody delivered the profiles.

I ran hiring at a scale-up: 650 people in twelve months, twenty recruiters, every agency in town. I looked at ten profiles, two or three fit, and the week was gone.

Search firms have the judgment that hiring needs. What they lack is time: research is limited by how many careers a team can read.

So we built ama: agents that read the whole market, show their reasoning and give your team back the week.

Send me one role. If the map does not change your next kick-off, you owe us nothing, and you keep the map.
