VERDICT: MAYBEBERG SCORE 68/100

AI-Powered Recruiting Agency

A one- or two-person recruiting firm that uses AI agents to source candidates, find contact info, and send personalized outreach at scale — replacing a full staffing team.

01 THE IDEA

The video explicitly demonstrates building a recruiting pipeline using Lindy AI agents: searching LinkedIn/Twitter for candidates matching a role, scraping personal email addresses, checking if they've been contacted before, and sending personalized cold outreach — all autonomously. The human operator just reviews and approves before sending.

This is a genuine business model: charge clients a placement fee or monthly retainer for sourcing talent, while your cost structure is nearly zero (compute + one person). The AI handles the grunt work of sourcing, enrichment, deduplication, and outreach sequencing. Greg and Flo both explicitly call this out as a viable business being actively built by at least one company already using Lindy.

03 THE VERDICT

This is one of the most capital-efficient service business models available right now — near-zero headcount, proven demand, and a clear value prop (faster/cheaper sourcing). The AI tooling is mature enough to execute today. The main risk is that large ATS/CRM platforms commoditize the sourcing layer, but a niche-focused agency (e.g., only designers, only fintech engineers) builds a defensible reputation moat quickly. Start with a specific vertical and charge retainer + placement.

Verdict: MAYBE — read why above. Still convinced? A vetted builder can pressure-test the scope before you commit.
