How lemonly works – the short answer
lemonly runs your search in four steps: a hiring brief captures the role's real requirements; lemonly's AI discovers and assesses 15,000–20,000 candidates per role, including passive talent who would never see a job post; lemonly's recruiters interview the strongest candidates in human screening interviews; and the few worth meeting arrive as warm introductions with fit briefings. Pricing is a flat $8,000 per hire, due only when you place someone, backed by a 90-day satisfaction guarantee. To date lemonly has evaluated over 250,000 candidates and conducted over 300 screening interviews across its searches.

Last, lemonly introduces
You receive a small number of pre-qualified, warmed-up candidates – each with a detailed briefing on who they are, why they're a fit, and what to explore in your first conversation.
Because you don't just need great candidates – you need great introductions too.
