Good FitBuild a Passport
One reusable profile with your real skills and experience, built once and used everywhere you apply.
Get matched, anonymously
Browse and apply to roles on Shadow under a Callsign, not your name, your photo, or your employer history.
Reveal on your terms
A company only learns who you are once you approve their reveal request. Until then, you're a Callsign.
The same anonymity companies get, built for you too
Anonymous by default
You're a Callsign the moment you join. Not a name, not a photo, not an employer history sitting in front of anyone browsing. Nobody sees who you are unless you decide to show them.
AI-matched
Phantom reads your actual skills and experience and matches you to roles worth your time, not a keyword-matching engine guessing from a resume.
Verified when it matters
Identity and credentials only get confirmed once there's a real opportunity on the table, not before, and never as a condition of just browsing.
Zero-retention when it's done
Once your search concludes, your data goes with Phantom, the same disappearing act companies get, applied to you. Nothing lingers in a database you never agreed to be in.

Applying, anonymously

You're issued a Callsign the moment you apply. Your CV is automatically redacted before it reaches anyone on the other side, so the first thing a hiring team sees is your experience, not your name, current employer, or contact details.

What is Zero-Retention Hiring?
Every other hiring platform asks you to trust it with your candidates' personal data forever. Phantom Hire doesn't. Retention isn't a setting you turn off. It was never built in.
Callsigns, not names
Every candidate gets an anonymous Callsign (like "Pulse-78") and a permanent Candidate ID. Recruiters work the entire pipeline without ever seeing a real name.
The Identity Vault
Real names, emails, phone numbers and CVs are encrypted and locked away from the day-to-day workspace, revealed only by an Owner, with a reason, on the record.
Automatic redaction
Every CV that touches Phantom's AI is stripped of personal details first. The model reasons about a candidate's skills, never their identity.
The Burn
One click permanently destroys every trace of a hiring project: resumes, sanitized CVs, AI notes, identities. Not archived. Not soft-deleted. Gone on purpose.
The Purge Certificate
Every burn produces a certificate confirming exactly what was destroyed and when: a receipt for the erasure, without a single re-identifiable detail in it.
The Historic Vault
Only the critical, non-identifying facts survive the burn: project title, candidate count, purge certificate, audit trail. Enough to prove it happened. Never enough to re-identify anyone.
Meet Phantom
He isn't a mascot. He's the invisible TA partner behind every hire, and the whole product is built around what he does.
Step 1
He appears
The moment you open a role, Phantom steps in, reading the job description, briefing the hiring manager, and getting to work in the background.
Step 2
He helps you hire
He screens every CV, briefs you on fit, drafts the questions worth asking, and keeps the whole team aligned, all without ever putting a name in front of you.
Step 3
He disappears
When the role is filled, Phantom burns the project: every resume, identity and record, gone for good. He leaves behind only what compliance actually needs: a certificate and a timestamp in the vault, never a name.
That's not a metaphor. It's how the product actually works.
