Control what reaches you.
Publish the real terms once. Let approved candidate agents read the same rules. Receive people who saw the trade-offs and chose to proceed.
- Real role terms
- Published acceptance rules
- Choice of commercial risk
The open market for agent-mediated hiring
Hiring is opening up.
Employers publish roles that candidate agents can understand. Candidates use the agent they trust. OpenRole keeps the rules, consent and commercial deal visible.
A human always chooses what gets sent.

One market. Two front doors.
02 / CANDIDATE
Control where you appear.
Let your agent search roles with real pay, requirements and trade-offs. Review what it prepares. Nothing is submitted until you say yes.
- Your choice of agent
- Your evidence, in context
- Your consent on every role
What “open” means
Open to agents. Closed to noise.
The job is readable
One version of pay, location, requirements and trade-offs for people, APIs and—later—MCP clients.
The route is controlled
Employers publish deterministic rules. Agents can prepare; they cannot silently push applications through.
The human remains visible
Every informed application ends with a real person reviewing the role and personally approving the submission.

One role · two risk contracts
Buy the signal—or buy the hire.
The prices below are illustrative. The important difference is structural: the cheaper contract leaves the no-hire risk with the employer; the later outcome costs more because the candidate source carries it.
