I'm in the middle of building an AST with a technical recruiter (I'm an eng) and would appreciate folks feedback/advice. - We are modeling the AST after software project management products (eg. Asana, JIRA) where 'tasks' are instead 'candidates'. Specifically, kanban style boards, assigning candidates to recruiters, keeping notes & documents in candidate profiles, asynchronous collaboration, etc. - Looking to launch as a freemium product for small recruitment team (down market). Very easy to get started and only pay when you have X number of recruiters in your organization. Model is Asana or Slack. - Import LinkedIn recruiter projects Again, would love feedback/advice so please reach out.

This sounds awesome! Starting with smaller companies for free is a great idea. It instantly differentiates you from everything that exists today. I'm working on a resume builder[1] and have spent a fair amount of time talking with hiring managers and recruiters. I can confirm that the vast majority of them are unhappy with their ATS — even recruiters. How do you plan to accept applications? Many of our customers have asked us to build something that prefills the application pages with data from their resume, because they find the applications repetitive and annoying. I realize the applicants aren't you customer, but I'm curious of you have thought about it. Also, do you plan to support automatic parsing of pdf/docx resumes?
