The AI copilot for the whole job search.
Investor presentation
HirePilot in one page
Applying for a job should not be a full-time job.
HirePilot fills in job applications, finds the hiring manager for each role, drafts the message and tracks every step to the offer. One workspace, built for U.S. job seekers, not recruiters.
Contents
01 Problem
Job search today is a second full-time job.
Overload
Dozens of tabs, roles and follow-ups spread across job boards, spreadsheets, notes and email drafts.
No visibility
People lose track of where they applied, whom they contacted and what stage each application is in.
Channels that fail
One-click "Easy Apply" created noise. Reply rates are low, and few know how to reach a person instead.
Tools for the other side
Billions went into recruiter software. Candidates still get no guided way from search to offer.
02 Solution
One AI workspace that moves the search forward.
Apply in seconds
A Chrome extension fills in applications on LinkedIn, Indeed and Workday from the user's own resume and drafts answers to job-specific questions.
Reach a human
For each job it names the likely hiring manager or recruiter and drafts a personal message the user edits and sends.
Never lose a lead
A pipeline tracker for every application, contact and interview, with reminders for the next step.
03 Product
Four tools, one pipeline.
Live in production at app.hirepilot.co, with a Chrome extension rated 5.0 in the Chrome Web Store.
04 How it works
From a saved job to an offer in three steps.
Save and apply
The extension saves a role from any job board, reads its responsibilities and requirements and fills in the application.
Find the person
HirePilot identifies the most relevant hiring managers and team leads for the role, so the user writes to a person, not to an ATS.
Follow up to the offer
AI drafts personal outreach and follow-ups; the pipeline keeps every application in order from first touch to offer.
Every step is in one pipeline

05 Market
Nearly 70 million Americans look for a job every year.
The U.S. job market is huge and inefficient. The search is split across job boards, email and networking tools. There are about 7.2 million unemployed and 9.6 million open roles, and new graduates faced 5.8% unemployment in early 2025.
The gap between people and roles is where HirePilot works: a unified search for the people who need it most.
70M+ U.S. job seekers a year, across all industries and levels of experience.
25-30M early-career, laid-off or transitioning professionals at $25-35 a year: the highest pain, actively looking for tools.
8-12M high-intent job seekers at $10-20 a month for a job-search SaaS, as with LinkedIn Premium.
06 Who it is for
Four groups who need the search to work faster.
Early-career
Organize 30-80 applications, track deadlines, reach hiring managers directly instead of ATS portals.
Mid-career
Save roles with the extension, keep all applications in one board, automate follow-ups.
Career changers
Structured pipelines, outreach templates and hiring-manager discovery to break into a new field.
Highly educated
PhDs, analysts and engineers reach decision-makers and tailor materials to each role.
07 Why now
The timing is right for a candidate-side tool.
AI can now personalize for real
Models read a job description, tailor outreach and guide the candidate. This category was not possible before.
The market got harder
Layoffs, hiring freezes and early-career unemployment make searches longer. People need leverage, not more boards.
Recruiter inboxes are full
Generic applications rarely get replies. Direct outreach to decision-makers is replacing passive applying.
No unified tool for candidates
ATS, sourcing and automation serve recruiters. Job seekers still juggle spreadsheets and tabs.
08 Competition
Others solve one step. HirePilot covers the search.
Job boards bring scale, AI tools bring speed. Each stops at the application. HirePilot goes on to the person who hires, and keeps the whole pipeline.
Simplify.jobs
Fast auto-fill for early-career users; no outreach.
Teal
Tracker and resume tailoring; networking is left to the user.
Jobscan
Resume and ATS optimization; a niche utility.
LinkedIn, Indeed
Scale and listings; little help after "Apply".
Indirect: spreadsheets and Notion, Google Docs, career coaches and bootcamps, Reddit communities, generic AI writing tools.
