    Why We Are No Longer Just a Marketplace and Are Spinning Off SaaS

    Investor rejection can be the best business lesson. We thought we were a product startup, but the fund opened our eyes: we are a tech-enabled agency. In this article, we honestly break down our pivot case: how to escape the "hybrid model" trap and legally and operationally separate the service business from the SaaS product. Learn why trying to sit on two chairs lowers company valuation and how to turn criticism into a strategy for exponential growth.

    Comparative Analysis of Matching Algorithms in a Self-Improving Loop

    The article examines an approach to building an autonomous recruitment system capable of continuous self-learning without human annotation. An architecture is proposed where various ranking algorithms (Vector Search based on fine-tuned embeddings, MLP, Batch Neural Networks) compete to maximize quality metrics. A Large Language Model (LLM) is used as the "Ground Truth" benchmark and generator of training pairs, evaluating the semantic fit of "specialist-vacancy" pairs. The results of a comparative analysis of the correlation between algorithm predictions and LLM evaluations are presented, demonstrating the superiority of fine-tuned embeddings over complex neural network classifiers in limited sample conditions.
