**Metaview** AI co-pilots will fundamentally rewire how work gets done. More flow-state, less toil. More insight, less guesswork. Human-centric, not process-centric. Metaview is building the AI co-pilot for hiring. At the moment, hiring is tedious, inefficient, and unreliable. But not for long. Metaview will handle the busywork, accelerate the workflows, and act as the thought partner for hiring the right candidate, quickly. We’ll make hiring feel like the high-leverage activity it is. Metaview is a startup founded by Siadhal and Shahriar after their experiences building products and teams at Uber and Palantir, and is backed by phenomenal investors in the US and Europe. Our starting point on this mission is an AI-powered note taker that gives interviewers superpowers: beautifully structured and summarized interview notes, pre-filled candidate feedback forms, and rich candidate write-ups generated in just a few clicks (if that). We’re already seeing that Metaview is becoming the center-of-gravity for the hiring process at customers like Brex, Robinhood, Genentech, and hundreds more. **The team** * We own our work from end-to-end. We work “towards goals”, not “on tasks”. We’re a team that knows the satisfaction of doing great work is only felt when it impacts the customer. * We optimize for rate-of-learning. We treat learning as the highest-form of currency for delivering future impact, and act accordingly: we run experiments, question thoroughly, and talk to customers over-and-over. We covet earned secrets. * We’re direct and actively-transparent in how we communicate and share progress. There’s no point painstakingly hiring a world-class team, if they are then uninformed or unaware of the context that matters. We’re a hybrid team with a HQ in London, UK.
