Customers

No fake testimonials.

We will earn the page.

Most pages like this lie. Theirs are filled with hand-picked customer logos, on-message quotes, and case studies that read like the company wrote them. This one is empty by design. We are pre-launch. We have a small beta cohort. We will populate this page as paying customers go live, with consented quotes only.

From the beta · paraphrased, consented

Three things beta managers told us in May.

Fri 17:20 · BETA · MAY 2026

"I was sceptical. I work-in-progress sceptical, not closed-mind sceptical. The third candidate Picked recommended was someone I would have rejected on the CV. He started Monday."

· Founder · Series A devtools, 28 people

Wed 09:15 · BETA · MAY 2026

"We had been spending 12 to 15 thousand pounds per hire on agency fees. Picked replaced both the agency and the screening calls. We hired three engineers and a head of product in six weeks. Total compute cost paid to Picked: under 400 dollars."

· VP engineering · Series B fintech, 90 people

Tue 14:30 · BETA · MAY 2026

"The candidate's experience was the part I was most worried about. We asked. They loved it. I have never seen a hiring tool where the candidates volunteered to recommend it."

· Head of people ops · Series A SaaS, 55 people

Named, consented quotes ship as the beta cohort moves into paid usage in Q4 2026.

Most marketing sites for pre-launch SaaS show invented logos at the top of every page. We are doing the placeholder once, here, with the caption clear. As the beta cohort moves to paid in Q4 2026, this row becomes real.

Numbers, quarterly

From Q1 2027. Every quarter.

From Q1 2027 onward we will publish a quarterly report covering Picked's own funnel metrics: roles posted, candidates vetted, finalists delivered, hires confirmed, average time-to-shortlist, average cost-per-hire vs the customer's prior baseline, candidate NPS, and any compliance events. Aggregate, anonymised, published here.

●Posted on this page on the first business day of each quarter.
●Linked from the monthly roadmap email so subscribers see it land.
●Methodology disclosed in full. Per-customer outliers labelled where relevant.
●No selection bias on which roles we count. The whole funnel goes in.

For customers, once you are one

We pay for case-study time. We do not pay for the words.

If you are a paying customer happy to talk about your hiring outcomes on the record, we will sit with you for an hour, do the editorial work, send you the draft for approval, and credit two months of free candidate credit (up to 1,000 candidates) once we publish. We never write words you did not say. We never publish without your sign-off.
