Bottom line

Vamo Talent finds software engineers by matching their GitHub work to their LinkedIn history, ranks them, and explains why each one fits. Pricing is usage based per result, candidate or report, with no published rates, and API and MCP access are included.

Stands out for: It ranks engineers on what they have actually built on GitHub and ties that to their LinkedIn career, so the shortlist comes with a reason for each person rather than a keyword match.

Watch out for: No prices are published, so budget from a sales conversation. It only sees public GitHub work, and the outreach response-rate figures are the vendor's own.

Overview

Vamo Talent, from Vamo Holdings, is a sourcing tool for engineering hires. It tracks 90M+ GitHub users and analyses 200K+ new activities a day, then matches that code and activity to each engineer's LinkedIn career history.

Recruiters search in plain language for people who built a particular kind of system. Vamo ranks matches against its own benchmarks and returns a shortlist explaining why each person fits, and outreach can be personalised from each engineer's GitHub activity.

It is sold to recruiting agencies, founders, startups, engineering leaders, VCs and expert networks. Plans are usage based, billed per search result, candidate presentation or research report, with volume discounts; research agents, API and MCP access are included. Vamo Talent took over the amor.dev address, which now redirects here.
