Built for every team that hires

Startup Founders

You're hiring your first 10–50 employees with no HR team. Sieve gives you data-driven decisions at the speed you need — without the overhead.

"I screened 34 engineer CVs in under an hour. Would have taken me a full day before."
— Marcus T., CTO & co-founder

Recruiters & Agencies

Manage multiple client companies from one account. Each gets its own DNA, jobs, and pipelines. Screen hundreds of CVs fast and deliver shortlists that impress.

"Our shortlist-to-placement rate went up 40% once we started using DNA calibration."
— Priya S., Senior Recruiter

Hiring Managers

Stop making gut-feel decisions. Get structured, comparable data on every candidate. See exactly why someone scored 78 vs 91 and use interview questions that probe the specific gaps.

"Finally a tool that shows me the 'why' behind a score, not just a number."
— Daniel K., Head of Engineering

Hiring teams love Sieve

From solo founders to agency recruiters — real people, real hires.

★★★★★

"I used to dread Monday mornings when a job post went live. Now I actually look forward to it. Went from spending a full week shortlisting to having a ranked list in under an hour."

Niamh
Niamh O'BrienTalent Lead · Dublin fintech
★★★★★

"We were drowning in 200+ applications for a senior engineer role. Sieve cut that pile to 8 genuinely strong candidates in about 20 minutes. Not an exaggeration."

James
James HartleyCo-founder · London SaaS
★★★★★

"The DNA profiling is what makes it different. I set it up once per client and every batch of CVs comes back scored to their standards, not some generic checklist."

Ciara
Ciara MurphyHead of Recruitment · Belfast agency
★★★★★

"The interview questions are better than what I'd come up with after two coffees and a night of prep. They reference exactly what's missing from each person's background."

Oliver

★★★★★

"What used to take three weeks of back-and-forth now takes an afternoon. The structured summaries give everyone the same view of each candidate, which kills the usual debate."

Aoife

★★★★★

"I'm a technical founder with zero HR experience. Sieve gave me the confidence to make data-backed hiring decisions without needing to bring in a recruiter first."

Ben
Ben CarruthersFounder · Edinburgh tech
★★★★★

"Clients used to push back on shortlists constantly. Since we started using Sieve, the first shortlist is almost always accepted. The scoring just makes sense to people."

Siobhan
Siobhan ConnollySenior Recruiter · Dublin
★★★★★

"We hired 12 people in Q1 using Sieve. I don't know how we'd have managed without it at that pace. It compressed what should've been months of screening into a few hours."

Tom
Tom HaskellCTO · London fintech
★★★★★

"The AI summary on each candidate is exactly what I'd want to write myself if I had two hours per person. Getting it in seconds is still a bit surreal if I'm honest."

Lucy
Lucy PembertonPeople & Culture Manager
★★★★★

"I screened 47 CVs for a sales role on a Saturday morning. Had a shortlist of 6 by lunchtime. One of those is now our best-performing rep. Still think about that sometimes."

Conor
Conor WalshHead of Engineering · Dublin SaaS

"Cut our time-to-shortlist from three weeks to a couple of hours. The team couldn't believe we'd been doing it manually for so long. Felt a bit embarrassing honestly."

Kate
Kate WinslowTalent Acquisition Lead · Leeds

Common questions

Isn't this just ChatGPT with a wrapper?

No. ChatGPT requires copy-pasting one CV at a time and gives you no structured output. Sieve is a purpose-built hiring platform: bulk CV upload, AI scoring, a full candidate pipeline with stages, team collaboration, interview notes, internal chat, and email outreach — all in one place.

Can my whole team use it?

Yes. Invite hiring managers with full access, or add guest reviewers who only see the roles you share with them. Leave notes on candidates, chat internally, and everyone sees the same pipeline — no spreadsheets being emailed around.

How does the candidate pipeline work?

Every applicant moves through clear stages: New, Shortlisted, Interview, Offer, and Rejected. You can move candidates manually or let Sieve suggest categorisation based on scores. Interview notes and internal comments stay attached to each candidate throughout.

Is my data safe?

Yes. We do not train on your data or your candidates' CVs. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. You can delete your data at any time from inside the app.

What file types does Sieve accept?

PDF, Word (.doc and .docx), and plain text. Upload your entire applicant pool in one batch — no need to convert or rename files first.

How long does it take to get results?

Most users have a ranked shortlist in under five minutes. Upload your CVs, describe what you're hiring for, and Sieve does the rest. No onboarding call required.
