Description
27 Labs helps founders and recruiting teams find the right candidates faster. Just paste a job description, hiring post, or describe who you’re looking for. 27 Labs searches across LinkedIn, GitHub, and 30+ public sources to surface highly relevant candidates, including passive talent traditional searches often miss. Spend less time sourcing, screening, and jumping between platforms, and more time talking to the people you actually want to hire.

Could you build this?
No Aggregating and searching candidate data across LinkedIn, GitHub, and 30+ platforms requires massive scraping pipelines, web-scale entity resolution, and continuous evasion of aggressive anti-scraping defenses.
What it would actually take: A true candidate search engine relies on massive distributed scraping architectures rotating tens of thousands of residential proxies and headless browsers to scrape LinkedIn, GitHub, and public records without getting blocked. It requires a petabyte-scale data warehouse with sophisticated entity resolution models to merge disparate developer profiles into unified identities, indexed via Elasticsearch or OpenSearch. The primary moat is the proprietary enriched data pipeline and multi-million dollar scraping/proxy operations.
