From household names to under-the-radar CTOs — describe who you need, Lessie AI surfaces them.
Hands-on technical co-founders for pre-seed and seed teams, comfortable shipping code and hiring the first five engineers.
Engineering leaders who have scaled teams from 10 to 100+, with experience in org design, platform investments, and SLOs.

Operators brought in by PE and growth funds to refactor stacks, retire technical debt, and re-platform legacy software businesses.
Engineering leaders from major open-source projects, cloud-infra companies, and dev-tool teams known to the developer community.
An end-to-end engine for finding, verifying, and reaching the right people.
Describe the stack, scaling stage, and team profile in one sentence — Lessie AI parses the intent and ranks CTOs by relevant scaling history, not by job title alone.
Every CTO and VP Eng email is SMTP-checked before it hits your shortlist, so deliverability stays around 94% and your recruiting team stops burning sequences on bounces.
Personalized recruiter outreach, reply tracking, and candidate pipeline live next to your search — no scraper, verifier, and ATS-adjacent sequencer to wire together.
Most CTO searches start with a LinkedIn Recruiter seat and end in cold InMails that get ignored. Lessie AI flips the workflow — describe the stack, scaling stage, and team size you need a CTO for…
The long tail is where great hires hide. Lessie AI surfaces fractional CTOs, second-time founders, and Staff+ engineers ready for their first exec role — operators who never show up at the top of LinkedIn searches…
Describe the kind of person you need — Lessie AI surfaces them, no matter how niche.
Seed and Series A founders sourcing their first VP Eng or CTO without a $150K headhunter retainer — operators who have shipped at the same scale before and can absorb the engineering org in their first 30 days without a hiring committee.
Type a sentence in plain English — stack, scaling stage, team size, industry, and exit history. No boolean filters or rigid title taxonomies. Lessie AI parses leadership-relevant context like prior IPO/M&A involvement, conference talks, GitHub footprint, and patent activity.
Lessie cross-references LinkedIn, GitHub, conference archives, engineering blogs, and patent databases in real time, deduplicates the same person across platforms, and verifies personal email deliverability before showing the result on your shortlist.
Send personalized recruiting outreach at scale, track who opened and replied, and move interested CTOs into your hiring pipeline — without leaving Lessie AI for a separate scraper, verifier, or ATS-adjacent sequencer toolkit.
