The Loop · flagship

Sourcing Agent — finds the people who never apply.

The person you want is not on a job board. They are employed, well paid, shipping something, and they have not updated their profile in two years. 100Networks reports that 72% of the people it places were not applying to jobs when they were found — so a sourcing tool that ranks applicants is ranking the wrong 28%. The Sourcing Agent reads your brief and goes looking for the rest.

How it works

Hand it the role. Keep the decisions.

Step 01
It turns the brief into a search spec

Titles, seniority, must-haves, deal-breakers and four to six gradeable criteria — extracted from the brief, not guessed from a job title.

Step 02
It searches everywhere at once

LinkedIn, Naukri, GitHub, publications, portfolios and the 100Networks talent graph, in one pass rather than six tabs.

Step 03
It grades itself and goes back out

After the first pass it critiques its own coverage per criterion and re-sources the gaps — up to five rounds — instead of handing you a thin list and stopping.

Step 04
A person decides who is worth approaching

You get at least thirty-five ranked profiles, each with per-criterion evidence written as a full sentence. The ranking orders the queue; it never makes the call.

In the product

Ranked, with the reasoning attached to every name.

A number you cannot interrogate is a number you will not trust. Every profile arrives with per-criterion evidence in full sentences, and a deterministic cap wherever a must-have is unproven — so the list you argue with is the list you can audit.

What it does

Built like a colleague, not a tool.

Built for people who are not looking

Found by what they have built — repositories, papers, talks, portfolios — not by whether they tagged themselves “open to work”.

Evidence, not a match score

Every candidate carries a written reason per criterion. If you do not trust a ranking, you can read exactly why it was made.

Deterministic caps on the score

An unproven or contradicted must-have caps the score regardless of how good the rest looks. An LLM-only ranking once put the weakest candidate on top; this is the fix.

It re-sources its own gaps

Coverage is measured per criterion, not overall, so a search that is strong on four things and blind on the fifth goes back out rather than shipping.

Learns the role type

Signals that predicted a hire on one backend search carry into the next one.

Claimed before contact

Every candidate is claimed in the network before anyone reaches out, so nobody hears from two recruiters about the same role.

For companies whose roles have been open for months because the right person is not applying anywhere, and for recruiters who want a market map in an afternoon instead of a fortnight.

Make hiring the thing you’re good at.

Seed, Series A to D, or enterprise — send us one hard role. We'll match it the same day, and you'll meet a shortlist in days. Pay only when they join.
