PeakU AI

What PeakU AI does

PeakU AI is an AI tool that optimizes remote tech hiring by combining a vetting process that simulates real-world code issues with its proprietary AI algorithm. This AI suggests the best candidates based on their actual job performance, delivering superior results compared to any alternative approach. With this novel hiring approach, companies can hire top developers who consistently outperform their peers. Furthermore, the app streamlines HR-related tasks such as payroll, training, and employee management. PeakU automates sourcing, evaluation, and hiring with its AI agent that connects to LinkedIn. It offers solutions including an ATS + advanced AI, assessments, headhunting, and payroll + EOR services. The company started in 2017, initially focusing on general recruitment before pivoting to tech recruitment. It has since expanded its offerings to include skills assessment platforms and a people management solution, evolving into an HR-super app.
