Anyone can write an application now.

Knowing what counts is still rare.

Flow gives you a recruiter’s judgement on any job, fellowship, accelerator or PhD you want to apply to.

Whether to apply

Possible fit

Said plainly, before you spend a weekend on it.

What this selector weighs

Strong analytical skills

Partly

You shared: “customer surveys”

Answers from your facts

We served 1,200 families, [confirm: how many more than the year before].

From Flow’s own screens: a result for a made-up CV, and the sample plan on apply.withflow.co.

Who is behind Flow

Harshit Jaiswal

Founder · builds Flow himself

Since 2015 I have worked on how people get selected, and who gets left out.

I started Flow as a community that shared opportunities and how people got in. It is now more than 10,000 people. As a headhunter, I then sat on the selector’s side, screening thousands of candidates for startups backed by Y Combinator, Techstars and Accel.

Flow is that judgement in software, for everyone who will never get a recruiter’s call.

From a client

He consulted Playment for our hiring when we were scaling up our team by almost a person a week and helped us hire a number of very important employees.

What Flow will not do

Your name is on it. So the rules are yours.

1

Nothing made up.

A fact Flow does not have stays a gap in your draft, marked for you to fill.

We served 1,200 families, [confirm: how many more than the year before].
A first draft on Flow’s sample plan. The number is left for you.

2

You send it.

Flow does not send anything for you. You decide, and you send.

3

Ruled out, told first.

If an eligibility rule rules you out, Flow says so before anything else, and never says “apply”.

4

No writing where AI is not allowed.

If the organiser says no to AI, Flow does not draft for it.

5

Nothing promised.

Flow tells you what counts. The selectors decide.

And what Flow keeps: a check made without an account is deleted after 30 days. Privacy policy

Where Flow is going

One application now. Every one next.

Now

One application at a time, from opportunities we read and check ourselves.

Next

Every application you make, remembered. What you tell Flow once is reused each time.

Later

When AI applies and AI screens, both sides need a checked record of what a person has really done, owned by that person.
