how you get profit? and i am developing something like your project for our area so can i get whitelabe or private options instead of build my own?
Karsten Biedermann
@esadik There will be plenty of opportunities in the future; I’ve included several ideas in the concept. For now, however, I want to keep the doors open and make sure people try Devpilot and – hopefully – notice a real difference compared to the traditional application process. What you have in mind sounds interesting. Let's stay in touch!

Do you plan to "integrate" any job offers that would motivate developers to register here?
Karsten Biedermann
@busmark_w_nika Yes, exactly. In fact, there is already an option for companies to create a link for a job (https://devpilot.dev/job-posting...). The jobs are also displayed in the feed (currently disabled due to the limited number of full-time roles) once you log in to Devpilot.

Congratulations on the launch @karsten_biedermann! Devpilot seems like a revolutionary approach to hiring. The focus on skills over résumés is exactly what the tech industry needs to streamline the recruitment process. I am particularly intrigued by the AI recruiter feature, seems like a great way to save time for both parties! Are there any plans to expand beyond tech roles in the future?
Karsten Biedermann
@renchu_song Hi Richard! First of all, thank you for your kind words. I really love the AI recruiter and have put a lot of effort into this feature. Expanding beyond tech is currently not planned. I think what’s really unique about our tech industry is that we can very easily verify programming skills with software, but for other industries, it’s not that simple – especially in the creative area.

is it really 0 dollars for both parties? do you make money on a percentage of contracts awarded? do you have any stats on the number of people looking to hire on the site? or maybe a ratio of contractors to people seeking contractors? do you handle payment processing? it seems like a cool idea in general, but I would want to understand a bit more about how the money flows. also I personally looked for a hook (as a developer) for why I would want to use this (vs upwork for example). congrats on launching! hopefully my questions dont come across as rude, im actually just curious!
Karsten Biedermann
@catt_marroll Don't worry, your question doesn’t come across as rude at all. I genuinely appreciate honest feedback, even if it’s critical. In fact, questions like yours have shaped Devpilot into what I envisioned over the past few months: a tool that truly makes a difference. That’s why I’ve decided to offer Devpilot completely free of charge for now. In the future, there will likely be a monthly fee for each company account. However, I want everyone to have the opportunity to explore and understand its value without any initial costs. Does that make sense to you? 😊

I recommend devpilot to anyone who wants to simplify the process of finding and hiring developers. This app offers a unique approach that focuses on real-world skills and test scores, rather than outdated resumes.
Karsten Biedermann
@varrr_al thanks Olena! 😊

This approach seems to transition smoothly into the interview stage. Looking forward to future updates. Congrats!
Karsten Biedermann
@zhiqi_shi Absolutely, that's the main goal! 😊

You're evaluating candidates on three criteria: your tests, language proficiency, and location. The industry certainly needs innovative approaches like yours. Best of luck with your launch! Did you conduct interviews with recruiters? Any interesting insights?
Karsten Biedermann
@michael_vavilov Thank you! Yes, I have received feedback from recruiters. They are particularly impressed with the AI recruiter, as it helps save a lot of time. Otherwise, they spend most of their time on phone calls, and initial conversations with candidates are very time-consuming. Companies also appreciate the advantage that, unlike a CV, skills are already verified ;)
