Who it's for

Five doors. One network.

Diiirect connects senior operators to companies directly — no staffing markup, no middle. What that actually means depends on which side of the table you're standing on.

For talentYou do the work. Get hired direct and keep the margin someone else was taking.Free to join · Top 1% network/for/talentFor companiesA vetted shortlist in days, not quarters. Every candidate read by a human first.No retainer · First shortlist in 5 days/for/businessesFor recruitersSource, screen and close on one pipeline — with contracts and invoicing attached.White-label · 15–25% commission/for/recruitersFor non-profitsSame network, same vetting, a placement fee priced for a mission budget.40% off placement fees/for/non-profits

What sits under all five

Vetting

Done by people

Every operator is reviewed by a human who has done the job. We hire from the top 1% and we say so because it's the number that decides everything downstream.

Paperwork

Contracts and compliance

Agreements, e-signature, IP assignment and worker classification handled on the platform, so nobody is emailing a PDF back and forth for a fortnight.

Money

It actually arrives

Milestones held in escrow, invoices raised automatically, payouts in local currency. Nobody chases anybody.

None of these quite fit?

Universities, accelerators and government programmes work with us too — those arrangements just aren't standard enough to put on a page.
