Use cases

Finding builders

  • Who could be our first backend engineer and has shipped a product from scratch?
  • Which strong engineers near us have worked at an early-stage startup before?
  • Who builds with the same stack we use and ships every week?
  • Who are the strong engineers in Berlin that bigger companies keep missing?
  • Which engineers have built something like our product on the side?

Deciding

  • Which of these three candidates has shipped the most on their own?
  • What did this person build at their last startup?
  • Who has this engineer worked with, and are they strong too?
  • Write me a short brief on this candidate before our call tonight.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Search in plain words

    Add Vamo to Claude in one click, then describe the engineer you need and what you are building.

  2. Step 2

    Research before you reach out

    See each person’s repos, collaborators and past roles, or ask for a full report on a finalist.

  3. Step 3

    Act in your tools

    Keep the shortlist in Claude, share it with your cofounder, or pull it into your own tools over the API.

Run it in Claude, or build on the API. See how Vamo compares with Juicebox.

A customer story

“I searched in plain English, with no LinkedIn filters, and Vamo surfaced an engineer whose GitHub spoke louder than his résumé. Forty days later, he’d signed.”
