AI talent infrastructure for DACH tech scale-ups
Build your shortlist.
Not your search.
AI sourcing and LinkedIn outreach for tech scale-ups in Germany, Austria and Switzerland: tamo.ai searches the talent market, evaluates every relevant profile against your actual requirements and reaches the best candidates from your own LinkedIn account — from one hiring brief.
The problem
Hiring shouldn't require hours of manual sourcing.
Most Talent Acquisition teams still spend hours translating job descriptions into searches, browsing hundreds of profiles and manually deciding who might fit.
tamo.ai does the sourcing work between the hiring brief and the conversation.

Time
Minutes of your time
Delivery, not features
Per user and month: up to 25 searches and 500 contacted candidates.
An evaluated shortlist per role
Every candidate with a score, three reasons for the fit and the open questions — not "80 % match", but why.
Outreach from your own account
Connection request and first message from your own LinkedIn profile, not from a third-party sender. Candidates reply to you.
Replies in one place
Every reply lands in tamo.ai, with your reply templates next to it. No switching between five tabs.
You decide
You approve every candidate before anything is sent. Block list for clients, partners and sister companies.
How it works
One job description. One ranked talent market.
Describe the role
Paste the job description or simply tell the AI who you're looking for.
The agent builds the search
The AI identifies titles, skills, seniority, industries, location, company background, commercial criteria and exclusion criteria.
The market gets searched
Candidate profiles are identified, enriched and analyzed automatically.
Get your shortlist
Every candidate is ranked against your actual hiring criteria. No CV keyword matching — real contextual candidate evaluation.
The data layer
The talent data layer for DACH tech.

Economics
Increase hiring capacity. Not recruiting headcount.
Scaling a hiring plan usually means scaling sourcing cost — more roles, more recruiters, more agencies.

Why this works
Built by recruiters. Not by people who discovered recruiting last year.
We spent six years as a recruiting firm filling exactly the roles you will use tamo.ai for. The evaluation logic is calibrated on several hundred real searches — not on keywords.
Great sourcing isn't about finding more profiles. It's about knowing which profiles matter.
