StartupKit is a browser-based operations platform that manages hiring, security, training, and outreach workflows for startups, connecting to AI assistants like Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot through MCP.
What is StartupKit?
StartupKit is a multi-workflow operations tool for startups that covers hiring, security, training, and outreach in one place. It takes candidate applications, vulnerability reports, training evidence, and prospect data as inputs, and produces offer responses, bounty approvals, completion registers, and drafted emails as outputs. It runs in the browser and connects to AI assistants via MCP, so operators can work directly or through an agent.
Key Features
- Candidate portal via private link — Candidates check their stage and respond to offers through one link on your careers domain, with no account required.
- Hiring dashboard — A "Needs your attention" column surfaces reviews waiting on you, code tasks about to expire, and candidates waiting for replies, alongside today's interviews and offers out.
- Security report triage — Vulnerability reports show SLA countdowns (e.g. 17 hours to acknowledge), researcher appeals, duplicate checks, and a triage checklist.
- Bounty approval with ledger credit — Approving a bounty (e.g. $1,500) records a ledger credit and notifies the researcher; researchers see payout status and can upload tax documents.
- Training completion register — One row per person with employee ID, department, role, and completion date, exportable as CSV or PDF, with individual evidence bundles for auditors.
- Trainee proof upload — Trainees upload screenshots of their locked screen with capture date and device name through a magic link.
- Outreach reply inbox — Replies from every campaign in one priority-ordered inbox, with detected sentiment tags such as Interested.
- MCP agent integration — Tools like hiring_advance_application, csirt_approve_bounty, training_list_programs, and outreach_find_silver_medalist_matches are callable from Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot, with destructive actions flagged for confirmation.
Who is it for?
- Startup operators: Manage hiring pipelines, security reports, training registers, and outreach replies from one dashboard.
- Hiring managers: Move candidates through stages and send offers that candidates respond to via a single link.
- Security teams: Triage vulnerability reports, approve bounties, and track acknowledgment SLAs.
- Compliance and HR staff: Export training completion registers and evidence bundles for auditors.
- Sales and recruiting teams: Review outreach replies and find silver-medalist prospects who previously applied.
What can you do with StartupKit?
- Hiring: Advance a candidate to Offer and notify them through the same candidate link they already have.
- Security: Approve a $1,500 bounty, write the ledger credit, and notify the researcher, with the SLA countdown visible.
- Training: Ask an agent who has finished security training and export the completion register for an auditor.
- Outreach: Find prospects in a Q2 sourcing campaign who applied before but received no offer, without drafting or sending anything.
How does StartupKit work?
Operators work in the browser or connect an AI assistant through MCP. Each agent tool declares whether it reads data, makes a destructive change, or contacts someone outside the company, and destructive actions require confirmation before executing. Candidates, researchers, and trainees interact through private links or magic links rather than accounts.
