No recruiter required
Launch a screening in minutes and let Criba run the first round over text, voice, or video while you keep building.
Hiring for your startup, without the recruiting overhead
Founders wear every hat. Criba takes the first-round screening off your plate so you only spend time with candidates worth meeting.
Why early-stage teams choose Criba
When every hire moves the company and you have no dedicated recruiter, the bottleneck is screening volume. Criba runs structured first-round interviews automatically and surfaces the few candidates who actually fit.
Built for how founders actually hire
A ranked shortlist with evidence
Every candidate comes back scored against your criteria, with quotes and reasoning you can defend — not a black-box ranking.
Start free, scale on demand
Text screenings are free to start. Add voice, video, and recording only when a role needs it, with usage-based pricing.
Fast enough for a hot pipeline
Screen dozens of applicants in parallel so a strong candidate never goes cold waiting on your calendar.
