We are rebuilding how people discover their next team.

Everyone deserves equal access to the best builds on earth.

Having spent over a decade building marketplaces, hiring was always the most broken, high-stress bottleneck. Over the last 30 years, recruitment tools evolved from newspaper classifieds to web boards and social networks. The interfaces grew flashier, but the primitive mechanism never changed. It remained deeply repetitive, draining, and friction-heavy—requiring massive cognitive energy just to explore a new move.

We realized AI could fundamentally break this paradigm. Harper was built to democratize elite leverage. To level the playing field for exceptional talent who lack private networks, for passive builders who leave their potential unmaximized simply because they hate the job search, and for those who only look at public indexes like LinkedIn when it’s too late, entirely missing the hidden market.
