Jack & Jill
Jill is an AI recruiting agent that introduces you to opted-in candidates from Jack's career network. Free plan, then $199/slot.
From $199/slot/month Free tier
Bottom line
Jack & Jill pairs Jack, a free AI career agent for candidates, with Jill, an AI recruiter that introduces employers to opted-in people from Jack's network. Jill has a free plan for one role, then costs $199 per slot per month billed annually, with quote-based volume pricing above that. It fits Seed to Series C startups hiring engineers and operators in San Francisco, New York or London who want warm intros instead of cold outreach.
Stands out for: The candidate pool is built by its own candidate-side agent: Jack talks to job seekers about what they want, and Jill only introduces people who have opted in. Pricing is per role slot rather than per recruiter seat, and Jill also drafts the hiring brief, rubric and job description for each role.
Watch out for: Jill's network is strongest in London, San Francisco and New York, so coverage elsewhere is thinner and you may lean on public profiles, which come without a warm intro. It is built for companies hiring directly and does not support third-party recruiters or agencies. Native ATS sync is limited to Ashby, with other ATSs needing the beta custom integration your team hosts.
Overview
Jack & Jill is a two-sided hiring platform built on AI agents. Jack works for candidates: he learns a person's career story and goals, searches millions of jobs a day for them, and helps with mock interviews, salary benchmarking and negotiation. Jack is free, and the company says it is paid by employers.
Jill works for the hiring team, with one Jill per role. You start with a job description, notes or a conversation, and Jill builds a hiring brief, researches your company, and agrees evaluation criteria with you. She then searches Jack's network and labels each candidate's overall fit for the role, and you save or pass to train her.
When you want to meet someone and the role matches what they told Jack, Jill makes a direct introduction with their consent, so there is no cold outreach or application stage. You can also search public profiles from LinkedIn and other platforms; Jill scores those too, but you contact them yourself and Jack & Jill takes no fee on those hires.
Jill works in the web app, by email and in Slack, and syncs with Ashby. The London-based company raised a $40M Series A led by Air Street Capital in September 2026.

Key features
Warm, opt-in intros. When you want to meet someone and the role fits what they told Jack they want, Jill introduces you directly instead of you sending cold InMails. Candidates have agreed to the intro before it happens.
Six-figure Jack network. Every candidate in Jill's network is a Jack user who has talked through their skills, goals and trade-offs, including people who are not actively applying. Jill keeps searching as new people join or update their preferences.
Hiring brief and rubric. Jill builds a hiring brief from a job description, notes or a chat, researches your company and agrees evaluation criteria with you. Save, pass and chat feedback sharpen the next search.
Slack and Ashby sync. Jill sends candidate updates by email or Slack and can run role channels in Slack. The Ashby integration keeps your pipeline in sync, and a beta custom ATS option works if your team hosts a small API.
