Recruiting is half judgment, half grunt work. Claude brings the judgment, i.e. the reasoning and the memory, while Crustdata brings 800M+ candidate profiles and 5 recruiting skills via MCP, meaning the manual work runs itself and you get genuinely personalized recruiting at scale, all inside one chat.
Here's the thing about most sourcing tools. They can't actually recruit like you. You hand them a few filters, they run those filters in a black box, and they hand back a list. Every recruiter on the same tool runs the same filters and pulls the same people, which means the judgment that makes you good at this never actually makes it into the search.
We wanted to fix that, and we wanted to fix it where you already work. So we put recruiting inside Claude.
CrustRecruiter is a set of skills you install into Claude via MCP. The split is simple. Claude does the thinking, Crustdata does the manual work. Claude handles the reasoning and remembers your taste, while Crustdata handles everything that used to eat your day, like pulling profiles from 800M+ candidates, verifying emails, mapping markets, and syncing your ATS. That combination is the whole point, because once the grunt work disappears, what's left is real personalized recruiting at a scale no human sourcer could touch.
Describe a role in plain English and the whole loop runs in one chat:
🔎 Sourcing: Hand over a JD, a recorded intake call, or just describe the role, and get a ranked shortlist with a reason behind every single pick.
🗺️ Market mapping: See how big a talent pool actually is, where those people work now, and what they earn, before you commit to a search.
📇 Contact enrichment: Verified personal emails, so the list is ready to send the moment you finish reading it.
🧠 Memory: Every rejection and every "more like this" you give gets remembered, so each new search starts with the feedback from all your previous ones. Over time it sources the way you do.
✉️ Outreach + ATS: Push the shortlist into Gem or Loxo and write the outreach in your voice.
And here's the part we love. It gets better on its own. Every time Anthropic ships a stronger Claude, your recruiter gets smarter too, and you get that upgrade for free the day it lands.
