# Talnflo > Talnflo is a new kind of recruiting platform where every candidate is verified before they participate, and every recruiter works from signal instead of noise. Talnflo is a recruiting platform where every candidate is verified before they can participate, so recruiters search a pool that has already cleared a bar instead of filtering down from unscreened applications. Candidates get a profile that competes on evidence rather than application volume. The product runs at https://app.talnflo.com.
