About Caio
Caio is a managed job search service that runs from a messaging app. You chat with it on WhatsApp, Telegram or Signal about the roles you want, such as remote positions in a given region or salary floors, and it finds matching roles, tailors your application and submits it.
Human specialists stay involved: the service says important questions are never guessed, applications are not padded to meet a quota, and a human checks details such as travel requirements before moving forward. Customized cover letters are prepared per role, a weekly summary reports roles reviewed, skipped, submitted and waiting for your answer, and the index covers a large pool of public roles.
Caio offers a free job search option and a paid managed plan. It suits job seekers who want to cut repetitive application work while keeping control of the constraints.
