About Standout
Standout is an agentic hiring marketplace that deploys autonomous AI agents to represent both tech talent and companies, vetting each side and making introductions only when fit is confirmed. It operates on a 'Hollywood agent' model where talent gets free, passive, and anonymous career representation while companies pay only on a successful hire. The platform focuses on the startup ecosystem, targeting founding engineers, early product hires, and GTM leaders at pre-seed through Series B companies. Standout is a Y Combinator P26 (Spring 2026) company based in San Francisco.
