About Amor

Amor is a sourcing tool for hiring teams that treats GitHub as the main source of engineering talent. Instead of searching LinkedIn, recruiters look for developers by their actual commit activity and filter by contribution frequency, consistency, programming languages and location. The vendor argues that many strong engineers are active on GitHub but absent from professional networks.

Each profile includes an automatic summary of a developer's interests, skills and activity, along with insights into the repositories they build and star. Contribution-pattern analysis looks at coding frequency, consistency and weekend activity, and the tool cleans up noisy GitHub locations so you can search by city, region and country. Candidates can be exported straight into the Ashby applicant tracking system. Amor is a commercial, hosted product used by recruiters, engineering managers and hiring teams. Plan details are not given in the material reviewed here.
