Show HN: Hirebetter.io – AI tools to reduce manual recruiter work

https://hirebetter.io
2•tomgreef•1h ago
Hi HN! I, Tom, am a founder of hirebetter and I’d love to share what we’ve been working on and get feedback from the community.

hirebetter is a set of AI-driven tools designed to take over repetitive manual tasks that recruiters and solo founders often face when hiring. At a high level, it helps with things like drafting outreach messages, filtering candidate profiles, and generating tailored interview prompts, all with the goal of saving time and making the hiring process consistent across candidates.

My co-founders have spent years in recruiting and hiring for small teams, and found themselves constantly doing the same manual work — customizing templates, digging through resumes, juggling tabs and tools. A lot of that felt like busy work that could be automated intelligently, so I started building hirebetter to fill that gap.

The current tools are: Job Description, Candidate Summary, Interview Questions, Job Ad Rewriter, Position Benchmarking, Social Media Job Posts (with Image), Outreach Messages, Infopack, Hiring Process, Boolean Search, Candidate Persona, Job Board Suggestions & Rejection Letter.

We’re thinking of working on a Google Chrome extension so you can use hirebetter's tools directly while browsing LinkedIn, job boards, or applicant trackers, without switching tabs. The extension will bring this functionality right where you already work.

The product is live at the link above. We’d love to hear:

   - What’s confusing or unclear?
   - What tasks in hiring do you hate the most?
   - How would you use something like this in your workflow?
Happy to answer any questions and iterate based on your feedback!
