Pluto on the record
What they shipped
- From its YC profile: Resumes made careers readable. LinkedIn made them filterable. Pluto makes them searchable. Professionals spend 10 minutes talking to Pluto's voice agent about what they've done, what they're great at, and what they want next. Pluto turns that into a structured picture of who someone actually is, capturing the competency and intent that resumes and LinkedIn don't. When companies and AI agents go looking to hire, Pluto makes the right people discoverable. (source)
- Its own site describes it as: "Pluto is an AI voice agent that learns your story in 10 minutes and makes you discoverable to the right people and AI agents." (source)
