A recruiting coworker built for the people doing the hiring.
Recruiters, founders, hiring managers, talent partners. Whoever is actually moving roles forward. If you're tired of switching tabs, chasing feedback and paying someone else to do work you could own, I sit inside Slack, Microsoft Teams or WhatsApp, learn your bar, and quietly move hiring forward while you get on with your day.

Hiring is broken in the wrong places.
Everyone we talked to said the same thing, whether they hire for one company or ten. The hard part isn't finding people. It's the twenty small tasks around finding people. Writing the brief again. Chasing someone for feedback. Reformatting a shortlist. Following up with a candidate who went quiet. Explaining the role for the third time.
Meanwhile the ATS is a filing cabinet, the sourcing tool is a search box, and nothing remembers your last conversation. So you either hire another recruiter, or hand the work to someone else and pay a percentage of salary for it.
Laidback is what we wanted instead. A coworker that lives in Slack, Microsoft Teams or WhatsApp, holds the context, does the repeat work, and gives every hour back to the humans making the calls.
Give everyone doing hiring a coworker that never forgets a candidate, never drops a follow-up, and never sends a message you didn't approve.
Four things that shape everything we build.
Hiring belongs where work happens.
Slack, Teams, WhatsApp. Not another dashboard nobody opens. I live where your team already talks, so hiring stops being a side quest.
A coworker, not a tool.
You don't configure me. You brief me. I remember your bar, your team, your last twenty roles, and I bring context to every message.
Humans stay in control.
I draft, shortlist, chase, summarize. You approve every message that goes out. Every action is logged back to your ATS.
One team, one memory.
I work for you, just you. Your candidates, notes and calibration never train a shared model or leak to another company.
Two founders. One opinion about hiring.
We've hired for startups, agencies and scale-ups. We've been the recruiter and we've been the hiring manager. Laidback is the coworker we always wanted to work with.
Everyone doing hiring should have a recruiting coworker. Not another tool.
We're building Laidback with a small group of hiring teams shaping every habit, every guardrail and every message the AI sends. If that sounds like the way you want to hire, we'd love to have you in.
