Enter the first interview already knowing what matters.
Aikiyam gives recruiters, hiring managers, and interviewers structured evidence from real work — inside the hiring process you already run.
You already know the symptoms.
“Too many CVs, no signal.”
That is the Signal Problem — and why we deliver evidence before interviews begin.
“Good candidates aren’t getting through.”
That is the Compression Problem — resumes can’t represent what actually matters.
“We keep making the same hiring mistakes.”
That is the Learning Problem — and why we close the loop with 30/60/90-day outcome tracking.
In an early validation survey we ran with hiring leaders and candidates across Indian startups, 63% of hiring leaders cited resume flood — too many applications, no quality signal — and 65% of candidates said they want to be evaluated on actual work, not a resume. It was a small, directional study, not an academic one. But both sides are asking for the same thing.
One conversation of your time. Evidence before your panel spends any.
Hiring manager kick-off
We capture what success actually looks like in this role — mandate, context, non-negotiables, accepted trade-offs.
Candidate session
A structured conversation about real projects, decisions, trade-offs, and ownership — not a test to pass.
Signal Profile arrives
Evidence observed, evidence not yet established, role alignment, and suggested interview focus — every signal traceable to its source.
We succeed only when the hire succeeds.
We charge a one-time Workspace fee to onboard your company, then an Outcome Fee only when a candidate accepts the offer — backed by a 30-day replacement guarantee. If you do not hire from our evaluation, you pay nothing beyond onboarding. Detailed pricing is discussed based on role seniority and volume.
Build the first hiring cycles with us.
Founding Customer benefits are available to the first 20 companies accepted into the program. Acceptance depends on role fit, hiring readiness and Aikiyam’s ability to support the engagement effectively. Workspace onboarding applies; commercial terms are agreed in the first conversation.
- Outcome fees waived for your first two successful hires
- Founding Customer badge — recognised as a founding partner
- Full product roadmap access
- Quarterly founder reviews
- Early influence on product direction
The questions engineering and talent leaders actually ask.
“We already have experienced hiring managers.”
Aikiyam does not replace them. It helps them spend their experience validating the unknowns instead of rediscovering the knowns.
“We already use coding assessments.”
Assessments measure performance under test conditions. We surface how someone performed in real conditions — systems owned, decisions made, trade-offs navigated.
“Our recruiters already do screening interviews.”
Recruiter screens cover logistics. We cover depth — the 90-minute conversation your engineering leaders would run if they had the time.
“Candidates won’t spend 90 minutes on this.”
Serious candidates embrace it — it lets them represent their capability better than any resume allows. Candidates who decline are often a signal in themselves.
“We don’t trust AI to evaluate people.”
Neither do we — fully. That is why the Signal Profile shows what we know and what we do not know, explicitly. Consequential interpretations are human-reviewed. The decision always stays with you.
“This sounds expensive.”
The Outcome Fee applies only when a candidate accepts your offer. The investment is a kick-off conversation and the candidate’s time. The risk is ours.

The first call is a 30-minute fit conversation — not a sales demo.
