Tech candidates don't answer cold calls. Tech hiring managers get 50 recruitment emails a week. Kolvera gives you the data depth and AI personalisation to cut through the noise.
Last updated: May 2026
The Problem
Developers and engineers don't pick up the phone — your dialler-heavy workflow from other verticals doesn't convert in tech
Tech hiring managers receive dozens of generic recruitment emails weekly — template campaigns get ignored
Identifying genuinely hiring tech companies requires cross-referencing job boards, LinkedIn, funding news — hours of manual research
High volume of contacts to enrich — targeting CTO, VP Eng, EM, HR across dozens of companies adds up fast on per-contact pricing
How Kolvera Solves It
LinkedIn Scraping at Scale
Scrape LinkedIn search results to build prospect lists of tech decision-makers. Chrome extension supports multi-page scraping (up to 25 pages per session).
ICP Scoring by Tech Stack & Hiring Velocity
Configure ICP to target by technology stack, engineering team size, hiring velocity, funding stage, and location. Every scraped company gets a match score.
Deep Research for Sector Mapping
Describe a tech niche — 'AI startups in Sydney with 20-100 employees' — and the AI maps the landscape. Three credits per run.
AI-Personalised Email Campaigns
Claude Sonnet writes outreach referencing each prospect's tech stack, recent hires, job postings, and growth stage. Not a mail merge — each email reads like a researched pitch.
Email Enrichment at 2cr Per Contact
Pro plan's 1,500cr gives 750 verified emails/mo. Enrichment waterfall checks cached data first. BYOK API keys on Pro/Agency reduce per-contact costs further.
Developers don't answer unknown calls. Engineering managers ignore templates. CTOs have gatekeepers. The recruiters who win tech clients lead with relevance — they know the tech stack, reference specific roles, and understand the difference between a Series A startup and an enterprise modernising legacy systems.
Kolvera automates the research so you can focus on the relationship.
How the data pipeline works
Sector mapping:Deep Research maps a tech niche. "SaaS companies in Australia using React and Node.js, 20-200 employees, Series A or later."
Job board signals: SEEK/Indeed scraping across IT categories. Companies posting multiple engineering roles score high.
LinkedIn enrichment: Chrome extension saves CTOs, VPs of Engineering, hiring managers. One click per profile, multi-page scraping for lists.
Contact enrichment: Bulk-enrich with verified emails at 2cr each. Phone at 6cr for direct dials (though email is primary for tech).
AI outreach: Claude Sonnet writes each email using enriched data — tech stack, recent postings, team size, growth stage.
Why Pro plan is the sweet spot
Tech recruitment is high-volume on data. Pro at A$119/mo gives 1,500cr and BYOK enrichment — connect your own API keys to reduce per-contact cost. Three seats cover a typical tech desk: lead consultant plus researchers.
AU tech market data that US tools miss
ASIC search finds company directors not in Crunchbase or LinkedIn. ABR verification confirms which companies are currently trading. SEEK captures tech postings Indeed's US-centric index sometimes misses.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Kolvera identify companies by tech stack?
Yes. ICP scoring lets you configure technology stack as a criterion. Deep Research maps companies by technologies. SEEK job scraping captures tech requirements listed in postings.
How does AI personalisation work for tech outreach?
Claude Sonnet receives each prospect's enriched data — company, role, tech stack signals, job postings, size, funding stage — and writes each email incorporating specific details. It adjusts the pitch for a 15-person startup CTO versus a 500-person VP Engineering. You review every email before sending.
Is 1,500 credits enough for tech recruitment?
For most desks, yes. At 2cr/email, that's 750 verified emails. Typical split: 500 emails (1,000cr) + 80 phones (480cr) + research. BYOK on Pro reduces credit consumption further. Top-ups available from 150cr at A$25.
Does Kolvera integrate with tech-focused ATS platforms?
Kolvera integrates with Bullhorn, JobAdder, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Close, Capsule, Atlas, and Zoho. It's designed as pre-ATS — prospect, enrich, and run outreach in Kolvera, then push converted prospects to your ATS with full activity history.
