Two people,
one hiring tool,
no monthly bill
Workcraft is pay-per-job hiring software for teams without a recruiter. It helps you set the role requirements and a salary range, ranks every applicant against them, and books the interviews. $99 per job, $1 per applicant ranked, and you set the most you can spend. No subscription. Your first job is free.
We’re Janet and Ali
The entire Workcraft team. (Yes, both of us. We’re also married, so hiring debates come home with us.)
Janet does business and product. She wrote the skill frameworks Workcraft ranks applicants against, and checked its rankings against her own.
Ali does the engineering and the design. If Workcraft looks good and works fast, that’s him.Why we built it
Before Workcraft, we built products for startups, enterprises and governments. In hiring season, up to 40% of our day went on hiring. Reading CVs, chasing interview times, debriefing, deciding.
None of it was our actual job.
So we went to talk to the people we thought had it worst: big companies. Turns out they have whole departments for this.
The teams really struggling were the small ones. They hire a few times a year, so they absorb the pain and get on with it.
That’s who Workcraft is for.
Why pay per job
Most hiring tools charge every month. Most small teams hire a few times a year. That’s a lot of months paying for nothing.
So you pay when you post a job, and nothing in the months you don’t. (Our parents are still concerned.)
How it’s going
We have one customer, The Courtyard Playhouse. They’ve come back for about a dozen roles, which we’re choosing to take personally.
In June 2025, Dubai Police picked Workcraft to exhibit at their Future of HR event, alongside SAP, LinkedIn, Mercer and SHRM.
We were the youngest and smallest company there. We came home with a small gold medal.
