What is GitHired?

GitHired is a hiring platform that replaces traditional resumes with autonomous, code-based evaluation. Instead of relying on self-reported skills, GitHired creates hiring forms that instantly rank applicants based on their actual GitHub activity—project depth, code complexity, and real contribution patterns. The platform filters out fake commits and generates a one-page profile for each candidate, showing their genuine tech stack usage and shipping capabilities. The result is a hiring process that’s 10x faster and far more accurate.

Who it's for

• Founders & small teams – who need to make their first critical hires without wasting time on candidates who can’t actually build.
• Scaling engineering teams – hiring across multiple roles simultaneously and want ranked, verified candidate lists instead of manual resume screening.
• Recruiting & staffing agencies – running high-volume, multi-client searches and need reliable, data-driven developer profiles at scale.

Key features

Real GitHub activity scoring

GitHired evaluates candidates on code complexity, project depth, and shipping capabilities—not keywords or self-promotion. Each profile is scored based on what developers have actually built and committed.

Private repo access

Over 10,000 applicants have granted secure access to their private projects. This means GitHired can evaluate work that never appears on a public profile, giving a complete picture of a developer’s real skills.

Cross-platform sourcing

If the candidate pool doesn’t have the right match, GitHired’s GitHub and LinkedIn scraper surfaces top developers across the web. The platform identifies cracked engineers based on their actual activity, not just their listed job titles.
