Find and Hire app developer in one click - Talently
Challenge
As someone connected to hiring, I’ve dealt with so many frustrations over the years that I had to do something about it. Here’s what got under my skin:
Posting a job ad takes time.
Just putting up a job listing, including registering, can take at least half an hour—sometimes a lot longer. Then there’s the rules, requirements, and waiting for verification of the ad text, plus user verification, payments… It drives me up the wall. It’s a nightmare.
The costs of posting are a nasty surprise.
Free listings usually get buried at the bottom of the pile, while employers with budgets jack up prices to fight for visibility. On Upwork or similar sites, you’re paying for credits, plus a fee for each project—out of my experience, it can easily cost $100–200 just to get a handful of semi-decent candidates, and that’s not even guaranteed.
AI-tweaked resumes are killing me.
When I finally get responses, I’m just exhausted by resumes that look perfect for my job descriptions but were clearly pumped out by AI tools like GeekRadar. I end up chatting with agencies or AI assistants for the first few messages—it’s so frustrating. Meanwhile, solid, real developers don’t stand a chance getting noticed. And what’s worse, these AI tools keep getting sneakier, making it harder to spot the fakes.
Poorly automated matching process / metrics (incl. skill relevancy and gaps).
Recruiter tools and functions (Job sites, platforms, ATSs) simply fail. At the end of the day, I have to analyse profiles/resumes and map to job description under the microscope..

Solution
Talently is a new Chrome extension that facilitates the process of identifying and connecting with skilled developers by analyzing content directly in your browser, available on any webpage—such as job postings on platforms like Indeed, Wellfound, Upwork, Reddit Jobs, or X Jobs, drafts in Google Docs, PDFs on Google Drive, or highlighted text. Here’s how it operates, based on its features and observed use cases:
Immediate Developer Search from Any Webpage.
You can start looking for developers and hire developers without having to sign up, verify your ID, or wait around for approvals like you do on a lot of job sites—stuff like passport checks or days-long waits. Say you’re on Indeed, reading a job description, and you highlight the text. Talently pops up in your browser and starts finding matches on the spot, skipping all the hassle of forms and red tape you’d hit on places like Upwork or LinkedIn.
Automated Technical Analysis via Algorithms
The extension uses algorithms to extract technical details from any text input on a webpage, such as programming languages, frameworks, and tools (e.g., JavaScript, React, Angular). It relies on tech term dictionaries, technology trend data, and keyword recognition to identify project or job requirements for developers.
Candidate Matching from a Vetted Profile Database
Talently taps into a list of about 3,000 developer profiles from upstaff.com—profiles with solid project histories, work records, and reviews people have verified. It digs into those profiles and shows you good matches right in a sidebar on the same page you’re on, all in your browser.
Relevance Scoring and Profile Details
When it shows you developer profiles, Talently gives each one a fit rating—like how well they match what you’re after—plus notes on what might be missing, like if they don’t know a certain tech. You can check out full profiles or grab PDF resumes, all from your browser on any page.
One-Click Connection Option
Reach out to developers with just one click—either set up a call or send a message (though the messaging part’s still being worked on). Depending on if they’re free, you might talk to them right away, or someone from upstaff.com might jump in to help set up a chat later.
Option for Expanded Candidate Search
If the first matches aren’t quite right, you can ask Talently to look harder through its network, and it’ll send more options later, all still in your browser.
