Products & Services
An AI voice agent and professional-profile platform. Professionals call or text Pluto for about 10 minutes, review the captured context, set privacy and discoverability preferences, and can receive warm introductions. Companies describe roles and team context; Pluto searches its network and the broader market, provides candidate context through the dashboard or Slack, confirms mutual interest, and routes warm introductions into the hiring process.
Market Position
Pluto positions itself between professional profiles, AI recruiting, and high-touch recruiting introductions. Unlike resumes and LinkedIn profiles that primarily expose titles, employers, and keywords, Pluto captures narrative career context, intent, constraints, and strengths through voice; unlike a conventional cold application or recruiter funnel, it confirms mutual interest and creates warm introductions. Its closest competitive set includes LinkedIn and resume-based sourcing, recruiting agencies, applicant-tracking/sourcing platforms, and emerging AI recruiting agents, with differentiation centered on conversational context and professional control.

Founding Story
The founders started Pluto from the view that resumes and online profiles make careers readable or filterable but do not capture the context usually conveyed in conversations: what someone actually did, what they are unusually good at, and what they want next. Their initial vision was to use AI to make trusted, high-context introductions possible for everyone, while giving professionals control over their data and representation; the longer-term vision is a career-context layer that AI agents can understand and act on.
