Comps

Continuum · continuum.jobs · Same buyer and same job to be done: venture-backed startups outsourcing engineering and go-to-market hiring to an agency with a public role board.[10]

Braintrust · usebraintrust.com · Same buyer and same workflow: technology companies sourcing engineering and product talent through an intermediary rather than direct applications.[10]

Workable · workable.com · Raydar runs its own and client applications through Workable, so the same hiring budget can go to the ATS layer instead of an agency.[9][10]

Risk

The customer proof is company-sourced only. No independent source in this ledger confirms it.[10]
