In short

Moments AI helps with hiring software engineers by turning your role brief into an agentic search that runs in up to three rounds: its own candidate archive and professional databases, then LinkedIn, GitHub and Stack Overflow, then conference talks, open-source work and blogs. Each candidate gets a fit score with the evidence behind it and honest gaps, and outreach goes from your own Gmail or Outlook.

Why it is different

Hiring software engineers without a recruiting team

Strong engineers, product managers and developer advocates are often not looking, and the best signal of their skill sits in what they have built, not in their job title. Founders end up screening profiles between sprints and writing cold messages that read like everyone else's.

  1. 01

    Job titles rarely show real hands-on depth

  2. 02

    Good candidates get a lot of generic outreach

  3. 03

    Screening pulls founders away from the product

Search where engineers show their work

Round 1 matches title, skills and seniority across Moments' own candidate archive and professional databases. If that does not fill your target, round 2 looks at LinkedIn, GitHub and Stack Overflow, focused on what round 1 was missing. Round 3 widens from city to country and adds conference talks, open-source work and blogs.

  • GitHub and Stack Overflow as sources in round 2
  • Open-source work and conference talks in round 3
  • At most three rounds, stopping once your target clears the fit bar
  • Hard filters for location, employment type and right to work

Fit scores you can check

Every candidate gets a fit score with the evidence behind it: what was found, and where. When nothing public turns up, Moments AI says so plainly, so you know what to ask on the call. Mark candidates as a fit or not a fit, or ask for more like this, and the next round follows your lead.

  • Evidence with its source for each score
  • Honest gaps instead of guesses
  • Your feedback steers the next search round

Outreach in your voice, calls booked for you

Moments AI drafts personal first emails using the tone, signature and templates you set once, and you review every draft before it goes out. Emails go from your own Gmail or Outlook address, so replies land in your inbox. When a candidate replies with interest, the scheduling agent offers times from your calendar and books the intro call in the same thread with a Google Meet link.

  • You review every draft before sending
  • Times shown in the candidate's time zone, labelled on both clocks
  • Threads handed back to you when a reply needs a human

Questions

Good to know.

Does Moments AI search GitHub and Stack Overflow?

Yes. If round 1 in Moments' own archive and professional databases does not find enough strong candidates, round 2 searches LinkedIn, GitHub and Stack Overflow, focused on what was missing.

Can it find engineers through open-source work?

Round 3 widens the search from city to country and looks at conference talks, open-source work and blogs. Any evidence found is shown with where it came from.

Can I trust the fit score?

Each score comes with the evidence behind it, what was found and where, so you can check it yourself. Gaps are stated honestly, for example no public evidence found, worth asking on the call.

Can I limit the search to candidates who can work in my location?

Yes. Hard filters for location, including on-site and hybrid commute, employment type and right to work run before you spend credits.

What does Moments AI cost?

You can start free with 1 open position, 25 credits a month and up to 10 candidates per search, with no credit card needed. Paid plans start at €49 a month for 3 open positions and 150 credits.
