aperturio.
MCP-first hiring for founders

Hiring that lives where you work.

Type /hire in Slack — or any tool that speaks MCP — and AI sourcing agents plus real recruiters take it from there. Shortlists, follow-ups, and calendar invites come back to you; you pay only when you hire.

No retainer · No software to learn · A real recruiter reviews every candidate

Backgrounds and networks behind Aperturio

PlasmaFlock SafetyY CombinatorESADE
The founder tax

You didn't start a company
to do sourcing.

Founders lose 15–25 hours a week to recruiting — writing outreach, chasing replies, scheduling, screening. Filling one role can take 50–100 outreaches. And the best candidates are gone in a week.

The job needs doing. It doesn't need doing by you.

Three steps, one command

Brief it. We work it. You hire.

1

Brief it

Type /hire in Slack, Cowork, or Cursor. Add the role, salary, and context. About 30 seconds. A person can do it — so can your agent.

2

We work it

AI agents source the market fast. Then a real recruiter reviews every candidate before any reach you — judgment, not just a score.

✓ human-in-the-loop, always
3

You hire

A vetted shortlist comes back in your tool. Follow-ups and calendar invites run through MCP. You pay only when someone's hired.

Why founders pick Aperturio

A hire, not another tool.

No new software

Nothing to install and no dashboard to adopt. Aperturio runs through the chat and editor windows you already keep open all day.

Agent-callable

Because it's an MCP tool, your agents can start and run a hire exactly like you would. A recruiter still verifies every candidate.

Human-reviewed

A real recruiter looks at every candidate before you do. AI does the volume; people make the call.

No risk

No retainer, no seats. You pay a per-hire success fee only when a hire lands — and we back it with a replacement guarantee.

Slack is the front door. MCP is the platform.

Hire from anywhere you work.

/hire in Slack

Start in Slack

Most founders meet Aperturio in Slack, where they already live all day. /hire is the whole pitch in one line — brief a role and the work begins.

any MCP client

Or let your agents do it

Aperturio is an MCP tool, not a Slack app. The same /hire works anywhere — and an agent can make the request for you. The process is identical.

You get human judgment on every hire. AI handles the volume, but a real recruiter reviews every candidate before anyone reaches you — so speed never costs you quality. Agents can start and chase the request; they never make the call.

Questions founders ask first

Isn’t this just an AI sourcing tool?
No — it's a service. AI does the volume; a human recruiter does the judgment. You don't operate anything.
An agent hiring people sounds risky.
Agents only start and run the request. A real recruiter still verifies every candidate. Agents do the busywork; humans keep the call.
What does it cost?
Nothing until you hire. A success fee per placement — no seats, no retainer.
