    Introducing Recruit Signals - Find New Clients Weeks Before They Start Hiring

    Ever had that feeling, a gut-level frustration when a perfect prospect posts a job, and you know 50 other agencies are already dialing?

    We have. That moment was our turning point.

    We realised recruitment prospecting is fundamentally broken: it's too reactive, too crowded, and we were wasting far too much of our time.

    So we set out to build Recruit Signals, a platform designed from the ground up by recruiters, for recruiters.

    The Moment We Decided Enough Was Enough

    We’d spent too many weeks buried in spreadsheets and endless LinkedIn tabs, watching prospects slip through our fingers. Like most agencies, we spent 30-40% of our week on manual research, only to realise the data was outdated before we even hit send.

    Recruitment prospecting has become a race to the bottom ... more agencies, tighter margins, and everyone chasing the same opportunities.

    Our mission became clear: empower agencies like yours, and ours, to operate with true predictive intelligence, so we can focus on warm, high-potential leads before they’re even public with their intent to hire.

    No more missed chances. No more wasted hours. Just actionable signals, delivered before your competition even knows what’s coming.

    Our Origin Story: From Pain to Platform

    Recruit Signals was born in Amsterdam, inspired by the lightning-fast pace of the European tech recruitment market.

    We lived a recurring pain: by the time jobs were posted, the real opportunities had already moved on. We were always a step behind.

    Determined to change this, we set out to build an AI-powered platform that could forecast which companies would start hiring, by analysing massive datasets to identify unique data "signals".

    Our first move was to map out the most powerful indicators: funding rounds, new CTO appointments, rapid team expansions, hiring velocity, office openings, and M&A activity.

    By combining advanced data science with real-world recruiting intuition, we designed Recruit Signals for agencies ready to lead the market, not just follow it.

    From day one, we built GDPR compliance into the core, ensuring the platform is future-proof and perfectly tailored for European users who demand both innovation and privacy.

    Our Approach: Turning Raw Signals Into Warm Leads

    At Recruit Signals, we’ve built a powerful algorithmic engine that analyses 40+ unique hiring signals, like funding news, leadership changes, team growth, and more - to pinpoint companies on the verge of hiring.

    Our enriched data goes beyond basic contact info, delivering deep context and decision-maker mapping so you know exactly who to approach and why. Each lead is scored with our proprietary warmth score, predicting the likelihood to hire and helping your BDRs prioritise outreach for maximum impact.

    Imagine this:
    You’re alerted that a tech team in Amsterdam just grew by 30% after a €2M raise, and you instantly see the new CTO’s details, before any job is posted.

    Instead of cold lists, you get dynamic, prioritised, and context-rich leads.
