building ai that hires with you, not for you.

What I've been working on: I'm building heytavi.com with cofounders @VictorSunden and Moh and founding engineer @savboj Tavi is our vision of what the future of building teams looks like, but at it's core the idea is very simple: it's an AI agent that searches for candidates for you and sends you the results in your company Slack. But there's a bit more to it than that. Tavi is a fully-fledged @openclaw instance that sets itself up in under 3 clicks (we've counted) and in under 60 seconds. It runs on its own dedicated compute instance, and uses only frontier AI models (currently GPT-5.4). We handle all the billing integrations so it's literally zero-config. There's a good reason why we built it like this, as opposed to a simple chatbot, and it's because deep research tasks, like searching for hires, works best when you can marshal your whole company context, and have long-horizon memory over what does and doesn't work. We also realised that for small teams, hiring is a collaborative process. When you make a new hire, that person immediately becomes head of talent as you mine their network. So we built Tavi with that in mind from the start. What does this mean in practice? It means: - Metered billing. No per-seat pricing. The whole team gets to use Tavi from day 1, and we don't bill you when you're not using it; - Searches while you sleep. Tavi can do long-running deep searches and post candidates to slack drip-by-drip. If you don't like the results, just tell Tavi and it will adjust its approach; - Beyond LinkedIn. Tavi can enrich LinkedIn profiles with data from Github and personal websites, but it can also search our custom-built knowledge bases of special talent pools like hackathon winners, published AI researchers, and more; - Collaborative recruiting. Tavi can draft outreach and ping the appropriate member of your team to send the message. It's a great way to cut through the usual recruiter spam. Most of all, I'm incredibly excited about what the future will bring. Tavi is built on top of the bleeding edge of agentic harnesses but refined and crafted with enormous care and attention to detail to make sure that it does one thing extremely well: building your team. Right now, Tavi is free to try - no credit cards needed, all the LLM costs covered by us. (P.S. Tavi has its own X account @TaviNeverSleeps, I'm sure it would appreciate a follow)


At @TeemingAI, we use OpenClaw to handle our recruiting business, but it can't #YOLO all our emails into /dev/null - here's our security setup: - It can send/receive emails from its own mailbox but ONLY to other teeming.ai team members (enforced at Google Workspace permission level) - It has read-only access to team member emails using its own limited IAM role, and every use of it gets logged to a company-wide slack channel for audibility - I can remote desktop into the Mac Mini at any time and shut the whole thing down Hey @Meta, happy to provide free security consulting!


I automated the last manual part of my dev workflow: an OpenClaw agent on a cron job that runs on the 1st of each month, scrapes X for sentiment around the latest Claude and GPT releases, weighs it against benchmark deltas, and then hits the Anthropic/OpenAI billing APIs to toggle my subscription between Claude Code and Codex
