Hiring data and AI people on a CV alone is a guess. carbon.talent is the skills-assessed talent platform for data and AI hiring — global. Companies see skills-assessed candidates with a vetting report, short video and working-style profile. Recruiters and hiring teams can also run skills assessments and ID checks on people they already source, and plug into ATS workflows (Ashby live; more connectors on the way).

Could you build this?
Partial The marketplace, profiles, and recruiter tooling are buildable, but the value depends on credible skills assessments, vetting reports, and a supply of qualified candidates, which need domain expertise and network effects.
What it would actually take: The platform side is standard web and database work with video upload and scheduling. The hard parts are designing valid, job-relevant data and AI skills assessments, scoring them reliably, and building a trusted candidate pool, which requires psychometric and technical hiring expertise plus marketplace operations.
