We believe that identifying and sourcing the best talent is a critical function, and its difficulty is often underestimated. We understand that human connection is key and that AI can’t replace your role in sourcing. At SeekOut our mission is to build innovative tools that make you more efficient, more effective, and more successful.
Our vision is to provide tools that lead the market in these areas:
People search across multiple sources, surfacing great matches and fresh, diverse faces using AI and proprietary algorithms.
Accurate contact information so you can connect with candidates where they will respond and tools to efficiently manage and track outreach.
Workflow and tools that enable better working relationships with hiring managers and other recruiters.
Tools that fit into your existing workflows and work with your diverse client base (and their tools), with fair pricing and no commitments required.

John has spent his career building services that use Search, Natural Language, and innovative UX to addressing challenges in business software, consumer products, and global health. Along the way, he learned that a few key hires mean the difference between success and failure.
With SeekOut, John gets to help leading companies increase their odds of success by finding the perfect candidates. He gets to apply his skills to the deeply technical information retrieval challenges of sourcing. And he gets to work with the great team at SeekOut.
Vikas joined SeekOut from 101 Apps, which he founded, where he built a handful of highly successful apps and games on Facebook, iPhone and Android platforms. He has worked as a software engineer and architect for over 20 years across a number of segments.
When Vikas is not building software, you can probably find him on the golf course working on his short game, which he takes as seriously as fixing bugs. He recently won Player of the Year for the Seattle AM tour and came 4th nationally at the Golf Channel AM Tour National Championship.
