Built for job seekers who deserve better
Verity was built during a 5-day hackathon by a two-person team in Indonesia. We built it because we've seen firsthand how ghost jobs waste people's time, energy, and hope.
The ghost job problem is real
Studies estimate that up to 50% of online job listings are ghost postings — roles that companies keep live with no real intent to hire. They're used for talent pooling, competitor research, or simply forgotten. The result: job seekers spend hours crafting cover letters for roles that were never going to be filled.

We built the truth layer for hiring
Verity is the first tool to cross-reference live data from 4 independent sources to score every job posting for hiring intent. Think of it as Carfax — but for job listings. Before you invest hours in an application, Verity tells you if the role is worth your time.
Powered by real data, not AI guessing
Verity is built on Bright Data's web intelligence infrastructure — the same technology used by Fortune 500 companies for market research.
