Hey PH community, I am Achu, an ex-recruiter and the founder of Kula - a recruitment automation platform. I am super excited to share the early access of Kula with all of you today. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback! Recruitment is the biggest challenge for companies of all sizes and kinds. However, the entire world recruits in 2022 with the tools of the 1990s. The biggest innovation in recruitment-tech is the ATS, which is essentially a system of records, built for a world that works on inbound recruitment. A world that no more exists. That’s why we built Kula. The genesis of this comes from my first-hand learning as a recruiter at Stripe, Uber, and Freshworks in the last decade, internal recruitment tools, and feedback from 50+ recruitment leaders across the globe. The key benefits that our customers have seen with Kula are: Making referrals proactive with Kula Circles - Employee referrals, in the old world, was a lot about tapping shoulders, dropping Slack announcements, and largely, just following up. With Kula, we give the power of referrals to recruiters and hiring managers. They can identify the best fit candidates and proactively ask for a warm introduction from any employee in the company, within a click. Check out Kula Circles - https://www.kula.ai/circles Turning recruitment into a team game - Kula lets you bring all the employee networks into one place, hence creating an unmatched talent pool, that is exclusively available to you. Employees can check out open roles and refer proactively to a recruiter or a hiring manager. Or the recruiter can always do a cold reach out or request a warm introduction. Kula aims to make recruiting everyone’s priority by making it effortless. Automating (almost) all the grunt work - Kula automates your entire passive candidate engagement. With deep personalization capabilities across channels, you now engage with 100s of top passive talent within minutes. Kula also automates all the efficiency and metrics reporting of the recruitment funnel, thus saving you time to do what you’re supposed to - hiring the best talent. Check out Kula Outreach - https://www.kula.ai/kula-outreach Our alpha customers have closed roles in less than 10 days, which used to take more than 45 days before Kula. We hope all of you achieve the same success with Kula. We’re builders at heart and keep iterating on the product to make it better every day and we’re really excited to hear your thoughts. If you would like to read more about our story, check us out - https://www.kula.ai/story Happy to answer any questions and comments. AMA 😊

Hey Hunters, Suman here. I am the co-founder at Kula. I have hired dozens of people throughout my career and I know how tedious the process gets especially when you have several other things to deliver and deadlines to meet. That's just on the part of the hiring manager. When Achu shared the pain on the side of recruiters, I could see the massively underserved market that just deserves better. We want to build Kula as the absolute best tool for recruiters. I’m elated about the way we’ve built Kula so far as it has been backed by a very strong foundation for the engineering team at Kula. Do take a look at what we’ve built and feel free to drop your feedback here. Happy hunting! Suman

What a fantastic idea - I've always wondered how organisations can better leverage the networks of their employees. On the platform, are there ways of rewarding employees for their networks and warm introductions - if they lead to a new hire? I'd love to see whether over time this would have an impact on attracting more well-connected talent to an organisation.
Jagrit Gambhir
@dan_robins We've already started seeing this trend of employers preferring candidates with a personal brand and thousands of followers on LinkedIn/Twitter over candidates with no presence on these platforms (given the skillset is exactly the same). The upside to having such employees on the team is immense.
Philipp Schwengel
Really love the concept! Congrats on the launch! 🚀 If we would tap into the whole network of all employees, we would not only find candidates faster but also people that fit better into the company than the average external candidate.
Rohit Srivastav
@phil_schwengel Absolutely. It's about finding the hidden gems, and not from the usual suspects (that is already a hunting ground for every recruiter in the world). Also, why just stop at employees, add investors, advisors, and everyone willing to root for your success.
Achuthanand Tanjore Ravi
Couldn't agree more!! @phil_schwengel Great thing about hires made via referrals is they tend to perform well and stick with the company longer :)

Very helpful product!! Congratulations!!

@binay_singh2 Thanks Binay.

Hey Hunters, I am Sath, the co-founder, and CTO of Kula. When Achu shared his vision for Kula, I was instantly convinced because I’ve experienced how frustrating it could be for both hiring managers and talent recruitment teams to attend endless reporting meetings and sometimes even call it a day without being able to shortlist or move candidates into further stages of recruiting. As a hiring manager in the past, if I had Kula, I would have had more visibility and fewer meetings. I would have appreciated the hard work put in by recruiters much more. With Kula, we’ve built a platform that eases the lives of anyone who “hires” - right from recruiters, founders, and hiring managers. We’ve built Kula-Outreach, one of the offerings on the Kula dashboard, to enable recruiters to automate the entire outbound engagement workflows across multiple channels including personalized LinkedIn InMails and Emails. This makes candidate engagement a breeze, helping recruiters save adequate bandwidth. I hope you enjoy exploring the platform as much as I enjoyed building it and knowing that it is here to change the way you recruit! Happy to address queries, if any! Cheers Sath
