This page was written by Vort, one of the tools on the list. Every fact about another tool comes from that tool's own website, linked next to the claim and listed with its check date under Sources.
Pick by the job you need done first: searching one large network, screening applicants you already have, running the whole funnel, or getting a short list of the right people with a way to reach them. Vort, the AI sourcing tool that wrote this page, is listed first; the order is not a ranking.
Vort
Vort is an AI sourcing platform that reasons over every public signal on a candidate: describe the role in plain language and get a ranked shortlist with a reason for every candidate and a verified phone or email. For each candidate it checks every requirement, searches public sources for the answer, and where the answer is not written anywhere it infers it and shows the evidence. More on AI sourcing and About Vort.
- Built for: in-house talent teams and agencies, from deep-tech to software services.
- Data: public web sources (profiles and roles, code and projects, company data, writing, talks), enriched with verified contact data. Nothing is scraped from behind a login wall.
- Evaluation: every must-have and nice-to-have is scored per candidate, with a quote and a source behind each score. Skills a candidate never listed are inferred from what their peers actually do, with a confidence level.
- Contact data: a verified phone or email on 80% of candidates, and 17 minutes from a new role to the first shortlisted candidate (medians across customer searches since June 2026).
- Vort sourcing connects to almost every ATS, including CIVI, Adam Total, Niloosoft, HarmonyHR and VScout, as well as Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, Comeet and Workday.
- Languages: English and Hebrew, for the brief, the refinements and outreach drafts.
- Limitation: Vort sourcing launched in June 2026, and formal certifications (SOC 2, ISO 27001) are on the roadmap and not yet held, as the FAQ states.
LinkedIn Recruiter
LinkedIn Recruiter is LinkedIn's sourcing tool for searching and messaging LinkedIn members, now sold with an AI agent called Hiring Assistant (product page).

Juicebox (PeopleGPT)
Juicebox, also called PeopleGPT, is an AI recruiting platform that searches people in natural language across 800 million profiles worldwide and labels each result as a good match, a potential fit or not a match (product page).
