Titles mean different things
One company's "System Engineer" is another's mechatronics specialist. Literal title search misses half the market and floods you with the wrong half.

Read the work,
not the title.
anto finds engineers by what they have actually built. It reads career histories with industry knowledge and hands your recruiters a scored shortlist, each name with a written reason.
ShortlistIllustrative example
Brief: Mechatronics engineer, motion control, Eindhoven region
91
System Engineer
Why: designed servo loops for wafer stages. Title says "System", the work is motion control.
88
Development Engineer
Why: MATLAB/Simulink tuning on precision actuators, never listed as a skill.
84
Mechatronics Engineer
Why: direct match on role; less depth in high-precision systems.
Every candidate is scored 0 to 100 against the must-haves of the brief.
The problem
Keyword search finds the words,
Keyword search finds the words,
not the engineers.
Recruiting runs on platforms that index what people write about themselves. The best engineers rarely write it the way a brief does.
The tools are never written down
Engineers describe projects, not toolchains. The candidate who used exactly your stack often never typed its name into a profile.
Searching becomes the job
Boolean strings, paging through results, opening profiles one by one. Hours go into finding people instead of talking to them.
How it works
One brief in. A reasoned shortlist out.
01
Share the brief
Upload the job description as it is. anto turns it into a search spec: role, tools, years, region. You check it before anything runs.
02
anto reads the market
Profiles are read in full, career history included, and interpreted with knowledge of which companies and roles use which tools.
03
Get the shortlist
The best candidates, not the first ones, scored 0 to 100 with a written reason each. Delivered as an Excel file your team already knows how to use.
Why anto
Built for engineering recruiting.
Built for engineering recruiting.
Nothing else.
General sourcing tools match words across every industry. anto is trained on one question: did this engineer do the work your client needs?
Experience over keywords
Scores follow what a person did in each role, not which words their profile repeats.
A reason for every name
Each candidate comes with a short written justification your recruiters can check in seconds.
Industry knowledge built in
Rules for role families and company toolchains, written with recruiters from the Dutch and Swedish engineering market.
Fits your current process
No new system to learn. Briefs go in the way you write them, shortlists come out in Excel.
Pilot

on real vacancies.
anto runs in a live pilot with an engineering staffing group. Recruiters use it on briefs from their daily business, and every verdict they give flows back into the rules.
