We build one thing at a time.
Black Star AI makes software for people who hire. At the moment that means one product, built properly, rather than five built quickly.
What we are working on
Product one
Hikari
Screening software for recruiters. It reads the CVs, prepares the call, builds the write-up for the client, and records what the client decided.
And then it tells you whether it was any good — by showing where the people your clients actually wanted came in the rankings it gave you. Nothing else does that, because nothing else holds both halves.
Have a look at HikariHow we build
- The software informs. The person decides.Nothing is sent, rejected or actioned on anyone's behalf. Every suggestion is there to be taken or ignored.
- It withholds rather than guesses.When there is not enough evidence to say something useful, it says so. A confident number invented from two data points is worse than no number.
- It marks its own homework in public.Our tools measure whether they were right and show the customer the answer, including when the answer is unflattering.
- It judges on evidence.Never on name, gender, age or nationality. Tested every week and the results are published.
Who we are
Recruiters from Google, Meta, Amazon, Shell, BP and Reuters, people who have run agency desks and executive search, engineers from Apple, and marketing from Diageo, Dr Martens and H&M.
