Job Protocol is a decentralized recruitment network that connected companies with talent partners through bounty-based hiring, though the platform has since been sunset as its operating company shifted toward AI-driven recruitment products. Job Protocol's Twitter Score is 1.7 out of 1000 as of September 2026, ranking #332,037 among 486,573 tracked accounts.
Job Protocol was co-founded by Jacob Claerhout and Boris Gordts and raised $1.5 million in a pre-seed round at a $7.5 million valuation, led by Tioga Capital with Portal Ventures and Syndicate One also participating. The platform used escrow smart contracts to manage recruitment bounties paid in USDC, with funds released only after a placed candidate remained in their role for more than 90 days. Job Protocol had also been exploring integration with either an Ethereum Layer 2 or the Cosmos ecosystem before the platform was discontinued.
Job Protocol has since pivoted away from the original protocol, with the operating company now affiliated with HiringAgents.ai, an AI-based recruitment product. Job Protocol's account has 344 followers as of September 2026 and 42 posts, and has been mentioned by 10 accounts a total of 12 times.
