Every industry has a talent pool. But job boards, LinkedIn, and social media own the gate.

You pay to search. You pay to contact. You keep paying to reach what’s already yours.

Why do companies keep paying over and over again?

They pay to search. They pay to connect.
They pay to reach what should already be theirs.

Application Tracking Systems (ATS) aren’t talent pools. They’re archives.
Job boards and networks aren’t talent pools. Holedo is.

With Holedo, hiring stops being pay-per-view.
Companies own their talent pool.

LinkedIn monetises isolation.
Each employer sees only what they pay for.
Each candidate performs for visibility.

There’s no shared pool—just fragmented leverage.
It’s not built for trust. It’s built for churn.

Holedo fixes that.

Hiring keeps resetting. And the platforms keep charging.

Every job post starts from zero.
Every lost employee means paying again to rebuild the pipeline.

Holedo changes this.

Talent moves and stays with employers:

• Every person they’ve engaged
• Every connection they’ve built
• Every hire waiting to happen

If a company has an ATS, Holedo collects the talent pool in front of it.
If they don’t, Holedo puts the talent pool in their pocket.
If they want to phase out their ATS, Holedo replaces it.

With Holedo, companies stop paying to reach the same people.
They own their talent pool.

Holedo is not a marketplace. It’s infrastructure.
It holds relationships across searches, time zones, and teams.
It preserves history. It enables flow.

This changes everything:

• Employers stop chasing
• Talent stays connected
• The loop closes

You don’t own talent—but you can hold it. Grow it. And keep the connection.

That’s the shift.
That’s what Holedo delivers.

Hotels pay for churn twice.

Once for the cost of turnover.
And again to re-access their own talent—over and over again.

The numbers don’t lie

See full methodology and sources → Hospitality Turnover Costs – Data & Sources

Hiring never compounds. It just resets.

Every job post starts from zero—every time.
Every lost employee means paying to refill the pipeline—again.

The industry doesn’t own its talent pool. The platforms do.

• High churn creates constant vacancies.
• Hiring resets. Job boards collect.
• The pipeline never compounds.

What happens when companies own their talent pool?

• Hiring stops resetting.
• Top talent stops disappearing.
• Every hire strengthens the system instead of restarting it.

Holedo stops the reset.
Hiring compounds.

HR tech is designed to keep companies paying—not to solve hiring.

It was built to sell hiring.

More tools. More friction. More subscriptions.

Every product promised to solve the problem.
Instead, they made companies pay to keep trying.

Holedo breaks the pay-to-play model.

Companies own their talent pool.
And once they do, hiring compounds instead of resetting.

AI doesn’t fix hiring. It fixes search.

AI filters, but it doesn’t create talent.

• It scans résumés, but it doesn’t build relationships.
• It sorts faster, but it doesn’t grow a talent pool.
• It automates tasks, but it doesn’t fix retention.

Hiring doesn’t break because filters are slow.
It breaks because the talent supply keeps resetting.

AI-powered hiring—without the gimmicks.

Holedo doesn’t sell AI. We just use it to make hiring effortless.

• Search in plain English.
  “Find me a front office manager with 5+ years in luxury hotels.”
• Predict hiring trends.
  See movement before it happens.
• Smarter search. Faster hiring.
  No gimmicks. No guesswork. Just results.

Private testing now. Rollout next.

HR-tech's job is to make employers pay.

For decades, hiring meant paying to keep trying.
More job posts. More filters. More fees.

It doesn’t have to work like that.

Holedo stops the cycle.
You own your talent pool. Hiring compounds instead of resetting.

Watch how Holedo makes hiring effortless.

Holedo doesn’t compete with legacy HR tech.
It erases it.

Holedo scales itself

Instant adoption. Zero friction. Unstoppable growth.

HR tech is a maze of sales calls, contracts, and IT headaches:

• They fight for deals.
• They charge for setup.
• They lock companies in.

We do none of that.

Set up today. Use today.

• No setup. No onboarding. No training.
• Hotels activate instantly. No IT teams. No friction.
• €500/month replaces €50K+ in bloated HR tech.

The network effect: Growth that fuels itself

• Every hotel that joins makes hiring easier for the next.
• Competitors scramble—they need the same talent.
• Staff avoid repeating a broken hiring process.

Legacy HR tech Sells Friction. We create value.

• They chase deals. We own the market.
• They rely on sales teams, long contracts, and fees. We need none of that.
• Every hotel strengthens the system. Holedo grows effortlessly.

HR tech is a maze of disjointed, ineffective solutions.
Holedo clears the clutter by being the only unified, frictionless system that works.

Holedo syncs. Others snapshot.

ATSs capture static résumés. Holedo keeps profiles alive.
Legacy systems go outdated instantly. Holedo never does.

We use LinkedIn’s Data Portability API.
One click—Live, updated, always connected.

• Employers get a custom job portal powered by Holedo.
• Jobs posted on LinkedIn point directly to it.
• Candidates apply with one live profile. No multiple logins. No stale data.

Employers finally search a unified, active talent pool—something no ATS ever delivers.

Keep your LinkedIn profile updated.
Let Holedo keep it in sync.
Simple. Frictionless. Done.

Why Holedo can’t lose

Hiring forces companies to keep paying.
Holedo turns every action into lasting value.

• Every profile viewed. It stays connected.
• Every message sent. It builds a relationship.
• Every hire made. The pipeline gets stronger.

In every other system, hiring resets.
With Holedo, hiring compounds.

Talent moves like supply chains. Hiring is stuck in the 90s.

Zara doesn’t wait for trends—it tracks demand in real time:

• Demand shifts? It adjusts.
• New styles? It delivers.
• Supply flows without friction.

Hiring should work the same way.
It doesn’t—because hiring never worked as a supply chain.

• No live talent supply. Employers chase, but talent isn’t connected.
• No real-time data. Hiring stumbles on outdated profiles.
• No continuous flow. Every hire restarts the process.

Hiring stays slow, expensive, disconnected.
Because companies never owned the system.

Holedo makes hiring industry-owned.

The network effect: The industry wins together

• Every company that searches talent strengthens the entire system.
• Talent doesn’t disappear—it stays active, flowing, connected.
• Hiring stops being one-off. It flows, like supply chains.

Holedo isn’t another tool—it’s the industry’s missing infrastructure.

A talent system that runs itself

• Live, unified profiles mean talent stays visible—no more lost candidates.
• Real connections turn hiring into relationship-building.
• Continuous access. Employers see talent before they need to hire.
• One system. One talent pool. No more fragmented hiring.

No more pay-to-play recruitment.
Holedo ends the cycle.

Nobody can build this

HR Tech giants are trapped

They can’t move. They built a prison and locked themselves in.

• €500/month kills their model. They need enterprise pricing to survive.
• They have no shared talent pool. Every product is a silo.
• They can’t pivot. Their tech is bloated, tangled, and outdated.
• They can’t match frictionless adoption. Holedo runs instantly.

Even if they copied Holedo tomorrow, it wouldn’t matter.

• Network effects. Every employer makes Holedo stronger.
• Industry-wide intelligence. They stop at company walls.
• Plug-and-play hiring. Holedo runs out of the box.

For them to compete, they’d have to kill their own revenue stream.
They won’t.

Going to market

• First, we take the industry. Then, we scale.
• Five hotel groups flip the switch. Early adopters lead the shift.
• Instant activation. No friction. No IT roadblocks. No enterprise bloat.
• Once they’re in, they don’t leave. Holedo becomes the backbone of hiring.

Holedo: An appliance, Not a project

HR tech is a graveyard of patches, workarounds, and ancient code.
Every update makes them slower, clunkier, and more fragile.

• WordPress powers 40% of the web—built on 30-year-old spaghetti code.
• LinkedIn launched in 2002.
  • They struggle just to appear unified.
  • A full rebuild? Unthinkable.
• Taleo, SmartRecruiters, Workday?
  • Piled-on patches, duct-taped fixes, legacy bloat.
  • Fix one issue? Break five others.

They patch, hope it holds, and charge more.

Holedo doesn’t patch. It builds.

• No tangled mess. Every line of code is clean, modern, replaceable.
• No waste. We run lean because we built it that way.
• No failures. One part falls? Another takes over—instantly.
• No downtime. Updates roll out without a hitch.

That’s why Holedo runs better with zero bloat.

• No bloated support teams. Our tech just works.
• No outsourced help desks. We run fast, direct, frictionless.
• No hidden costs. Clients pay for results, not repairs.
• No endless implementations. Sign up. Go live. Hire.

This isn’t just better software.
It’s better service—built right in.

Tech moves fast. Holedo moves faster.

• API-first. Everything connects, extends, scales.
• AI-ready—without the bloat. Intelligence built-in, not bolted on.
• No constraints. No friction. No limits.

Plug in. Automate. Scale.
Every workflow connects and extends—seamlessly.
No outdated infrastructure. No rebuilds. No slowdowns.

Future-proof. Every system, every workflow—fully integrated.

Holedo works like an appliance

No setup. No downtime. No training manuals.

Log in. Upload your logo. Done.

You don’t read a manual for a toaster.
You don’t need instructions for a microwave.

Holedo is tech without friction.

The data advantage

Holedo gets smarter with every hire

Other HR tech stops at the company level.
Holedo connects the entire industry.

Every employer strengthens the system.
More data. Sharper insights. Faster hiring.

• Live hiring trends.
• Salary benchmarks.
• Retention forecasts.

Industry-wide intelligence beyond internal reports.

Every conversation ends the same:

“Existing solutions don’t work.”

Holedo fixes hiring. Period.

One ecosystem. No disconnected tools. No data silos.
One universal talent pool. No lost candidates. No broken connections.
One platform. Everything included. No hidden fees.

Holedo replaces the stack

Hotels don’t run on one system. They run on a bloated mess.

• A hiring system that doesn’t connect to talent.
• A CRM that doesn’t talk to recruitment.
• A project tool that doesn’t track hiring.
• Messaging apps, spreadsheets, documents—scattered everywhere.

Everything disconnected. Everything expensive.

The cost of a broken stack

Hotels pay for every piece separately.

They spend millions on:

• Licenses for bloated software.
• SaaS contracts for tools that don’t integrate.
• Support teams to fix what doesn’t work together.

It’s not just expensive. It’s inefficient.

Holedo replaces it all—in one full sweep.

Hotels drop their software stack overnight.

• No separate CRM.
• No separate project tools.
• No separate messaging apps—Holedo runs on Matrix.
• No standalone office suites.
• No SaaS bloat.

A business model that locks competitors out.

Holedo runs like an application. But it scales like infrastructure.

Hotels log in. It works.

• No setup. No onboarding. No IT headaches.
• No downtime. No migration pain.
• No vendor lock-in.

What this means for investors

• Hotels don’t “try” Holedo. They switch—and stay.
• Cost savings make it an instant yes.
• No friction means no barriers to scaling.
• Every new hotel strengthens the network, making Holedo harder to displace.

The old way locks hotels in.

Holedo locks competitors out.

Holedo goes beyond hospitality

Holedo fixed hiring in hotels.

Hiring finally has a system. And companies own it.

Everyone knew hiring was inefficient. But no one saw the missing piece.

• Recruiters patched tools together. They hacked solutions, but they never had a real system.
• Hotels fixed processes. They never built true infrastructure.
• Startups added features one at a time. They solved isolated problems—never the whole.
• Big Tech sold more ATSs, more CRMs, more job boards. None of it fixed hiring.

The missing lens

Fixing hiring needed three things:

• Recruitment expertise to feel the pain.
• A supply chain view to see what’s missing.
• Tech that works like an appliance—simple, frictionless.

No one had all three.
Until now.

This was always the future.

For decades, companies believed hiring was simple.
Then one day, it wasn’t.

The talent supply dried up. The tools stopped working.

But recruitment wasn’t broken—
It just never had a system.

Now, it does.

Holedo is already live. It’s already scaling.
This isn’t a pitch. It’s happening.

Invest now—or watch while someone else takes your spot.
