We are three computer science and AI graduates from Boston University. We graduated into a job market where the advice was "optimize your resume for the ATS" and "use AI to get past the filters." Workshops on how to beat a system. Tools designed to fool a tool.
We followed the playbook everyone handed us. And the whole time, we kept thinking if this feels this broken from our side, how must it feel for the people actually trying to hire?
So we built Taffy. Not to replace recruiters, not to automate hiring into a black box but to give the people doing the work a way to actually find the people worth hiring.
