Precision, not volume

34 people worth calling. Not 2,000 to sift through.

A keyword search hands you everyone who ever typed the word. Ladel reads each profile the way a good recruiter would and keeps only the people who fit, so the list is short enough to act on today. Sales works the same way: 17 accounts that match, not every company in Bengaluru.

  • Holds the role, not just mentions it
  • Doing the work now, not five jobs ago
  • One line on every row saying why it is there

04How it works

Ask. Check the work. Decide.

  1. 01

    You ask.

    In English, or in your firm’s shorthand. Attach the JD, the intake notes or last quarter’s target list. Ladel reads them before it searches.

    “ICU staff nurses in Hyderabad, 2+ years, not from the hospital we hired from last month”

  2. 02

    Ladel searches, and shows its work.

    The filters it used sit above the table as chips. Every row says why it is there. Every version of the table is kept, so “undo” is a sentence.

    Title · Staff Nurse Area · Hyderabad Function · Health Experience · 2+ yrs

  3. 03

    You decide.

    Shortlist, give verdicts, pull contacts, book interviews, export. Ladel never contacts a candidate or a buyer without your go-ahead.

    Added 12 people to ICU nurses · Hyderabad.

Ladel also answers inside ChatGPT, Claude and Cursor over MCP, on the same data and the same projects.

07Questions

Asked on most first calls.

Who is Ladel for?
Staffing agencies, RPO teams, in-house talent teams, search firms, and sales teams selling into Indian companies. Ladel searches every level, from testers and technicians to directors. If your work starts with “find me the people who…”, it is for you.
How deep is the frontline data?
Deepest for office, engineering and sales roles, and growing fastest for frontline ones such as supervisors, technicians, machine operators and delivery staff. Ladel tells you how many people match before you commit to a search.
Is the data only Indian?
Yes, on purpose. The dataset is built around Indian companies and the people who work in them, in India and abroad. We would rather be complete on one country than thin on fifty.
Where does the data come from?
Public professional and company records, cleaned, linked and de-duplicated by us, and refreshed on a schedule. We do not read your ATS, inbox or CRM unless you connect them.
Can I use it for sales as well as hiring?
Yes. A project is a project. Recruiters keep one per role; sales teams keep one per territory or vertical. The search, the table and the shortlist work the same way.
Does Ladel message candidates?
Only when you tell it to. Ladel finds, ranks and explains, and books interviews when you approve them. We think the first message to a candidate should come from you.
What does it cost?
Start free; there is no card to enter. Pricing is per firm, with contact lookups metered monthly. Talk to us when the team wants more seats or a higher lookup limit.

Ask for the people you need.

Create a firm, type the brief, and have the first shortlist before the call ends. Or write to us and we will run your live search with you on a screen share.
