Spotlight - Prog.AI

Where do you go when you need to find software developers who are experts in a specific field? Developers typically have very simple profiles on LinkedIn, while we can see what they have built on GitHub!

That is why Prog.AI wants to give you a leg-up by bringing together the worlds of GitHub and LinkedIn, Stack Overflow and Kaggle. It analyzes the entire open source on GitHub to build detailed technical profiles on 70 million software developers, and it’s doing so by using AI to “infer” skills from code they’ve written. 

Recruiters, DevRel managers or tech leads use Prog.ai to build a list of relevant software engineers to hire, invite for an event or get professional profiles of stargazers on GitHub.

Cerebral Valley readers are invited for a free 2 weeks trial.
