HirePad Team
Today marks day one. We're building HirePad because we believe small recruiting teams deserve better tools.
If you've ever tried to hire at a growing company, you know the drill. You start with a spreadsheet. Then you add a scheduling tool, a texting service, an email tracker, maybe a Chrome extension for sourcing. Before long you're juggling six different apps, none of which talk to each other, and spending more time managing your tools than actually recruiting.
The alternative? Enterprise platforms that cost tens of thousands per year, take months to configure, and require a dedicated admin just to keep running. For a team of two or three recruiters, that's not an option.
We've lived this problem firsthand. We've watched recruiters lose great candidates because a follow-up fell through the cracks between tools. We've seen hiring managers give up on the process because submitting feedback required logging into yet another system. We've felt the frustration of paying for five tools that each do 20% of what you need.
HirePad is a single platform that covers the entire recruiting workflow. Pipeline management, multi-channel communication (email, SMS, and voice), AI-powered screening interviews, automated scheduling, structured scorecards, branded job boards, and analytics. All in one place.
We're not building a stripped-down version of an enterprise tool. We're building something designed from the ground up for teams that move fast and don't have time to waste on configuration and training.
Every feature is built to work out of the box. Connect your email, sync your calendar, and start recruiting. No implementation consultants. No six-week onboarding programs.
Speed over ceremony. Every workflow in HirePad is designed to minimize clicks and eliminate busywork. If a task can be automated, it should be.
All-in-one, not all-or-nothing. You get the full platform on every plan. No feature gating that forces you to upgrade just to send a text message.
AI as a multiplier. AI screening interviews let a two-person team process the same volume of candidates as a team of ten. The AI handles the repetitive screening; your recruiters handle the judgment calls.
Transparency in pricing. Simple plans, predictable costs, no per-seat surprises. You should know exactly what you're paying before you sign up.
We're building in public and shipping fast. We'll be sharing our progress here on the blog, along with practical content about hiring, recruiting operations, and the tools that make small teams effective.
If you're a recruiter or hiring manager who's tired of duct-taping your tech stack together, HirePad is for you. We're opening early access soon, and we'd love for you to be part of it.
