TalentPluto is an early-stage company building the infrastructure that connects great operators to the startups that need them. Our platform gives professionals an AI agent that learns their real career story and controls how they are discovered by people, companies, and other AI agents, and gives hiring teams a matched, evidence-ranked pipeline instead of a resume pile.

We work with fast-moving venture-backed startups across go-to-market and engineering. The team is small and technical, we ship daily, and the product surface spans a candidate agent, voice and text onboarding, matching models, and deep integrations with the applicant tracking systems our clients already run.
