"Dex has deliberately narrowed its focus to a single slice of the technical talent market: AI researchers, software developers, and machine learning and quantitative engineers."
"Since beginning to charge in late 2025, Dex has grown from zero to approximately $1.8 million in annualised recurring revenue."
"The product works in two stages. A candidate begins with a conversation, either voice or text, with Dex's AI agent, which asks open-ended questions about their experience, motivations, and ambitions."
"Lambros described profitability by year-end as 'conceivable.'"
Dex, founded by Paddy Lambros, focuses on technical hiring for AI researchers, software developers, and engineers. The startup has raised $8.4 million in total funding, including a recent $5.3 million seed round. With over 15,000 engineers registered and more than 50 companies using its services, Dex has rapidly grown to $1.8 million in annual recurring revenue. The platform utilizes an AI agent to engage candidates and match them with relevant job openings, aiming for profitability by year-end.
