For early-stage startups and the talent betting on them

Startups go unseen. Talent goes unsure.
We make both sides verified.

Provetix learns about a startup's role and budget before talent ever applies, and checks that talent's skills match what they say before a startup ever interviews them.

For startups

Skip the silence.

Tell us about your role and what you're looking for — the position, your budget, and your timeline. We use that to match you with talent who's already been skill-tested for exactly that.

For talent

Bet on a startup that's earned it.

Every startup on Provetix has been through a real conversation with us first. Pass our baseline skill check once, and every company you talk to here has already proven it's worth your time.

How it works

Three steps. Both sides ready before anyone talks.

1

Startup call

You tell us about the role, your budget, and your timeline — so we know exactly who to bring you.

2

Talent check

Talent tells us what they do and passes a baseline skill check — so every profile you see is honest, not just polished.

3

Direct match

We make the introduction. You run your own interview from there — we just make sure it's worth the time on both sides.

Why we're built this way

Most startup-talent matching breaks down for one simple reason: two strangers spend their time on each other before anyone's earned trust.

01

Talent defaults to big names because trust is hard to earn when you're small and unproven. We replace "trust us" with a real conversation, every time.

02

No one can promise a startup won't shut down. What we can do is understand your funding and timeline upfront, and back every placement with a refill guarantee if it doesn't work out in the first 90 days.

03

Our skill check confirms honesty, not perfection. It tells a startup that what you said about yourself is true — the rest of the conversation is theirs to run.

Pricing

Pay for hires, not access.

No upfront cost. No subscription. You pay only when we fill a role.

One-time hire

Per role

8–12% of first-year salary

A flat fee per role filled, priced to the seniority of the position. No subscription, no commitment beyond the hire.

Who's building this

The people behind Provetix.

Pavana S
Founder

Pavana built her recruiting practice working directly with early-stage founders across the US and India. She watched the same friction repeat itself: startups with real funding and real roles losing talent to bigger names simply because no one had built trust first. Provetix is her answer — a place where both sides know what they're walking into before the first conversation happens.

Co-founder — open seat

We're looking for a technical co-founder who believes trust is a product problem worth solving. If you've built hiring tools, marketplaces, or developer infrastructure and want to own the engineering side of this from day one, let's talk.
