One more placement per quarter. And your year is paid for.
When you're solo, every hour spent on admin or manual prospecting is an hour that doesn't place anyone. Marvin brings ATS, CRM, sequences, note taker and invoicing together in one tool β sized for one person, operational right away.

Today's reality
From solo recruiters, we always hear the same four things.
"Four months with zero money earned"
Success-fee cash flow: you only invoice on placement, and a process takes weeks. Every hour lost to manual tasks pushes the next invoice further away.
Prospecting devours your bandwidth
When you're starting out, finding engagements can eat up most of the week. Without sequences or automatic follow-ups, you're the one writing every message, one by one β at the expense of your active searches.
The solo stack costs a fortune
One tool for sourcing, one for notes, one for outreach, one for invoicing. Added together, an independent recruiter's licenses quickly run to hundreds of euros a month β for tools that don't talk to each other.
Everything is manual
Excel, paper notes, follow-ups from memory. It holds together with two engagements. By the third, candidates slip through, clients are left waiting β and your evenings go to re-entering the day's work.
How Marvin speeds it up
What Marvin changes when you work alone.
You start today
Import your network and your existing database, automatic deduplication. No IT project, no heavy training: you pick up the tool on your own, right away.
Sequences prospect while you recruit
LinkedIn, email and WhatsApp sequences work your candidates β and your future clients. Client prospecting runs in the background, with conservative quotas, while you run your interviews.
Every interview is capitalized
Note writes the structured summary during the call. Six months later, semantic search finds the profile by what they told you. Your talent pool becomes your edge over established firms.
Placement confirmed, invoice sent
The placement triggers the invoice, follow-ups are scheduled. You get paid faster, without thinking about it β success-fee cash flow becomes something you steer instead of endure.

Marvin vs what freelancers try today.
Without Marvin
- Newer outreach-first tools: liked for the interface but multi-posting via a third party and invoicing out of scope.
- Mainstream ATSs: contractual commitment, not well suited to a solo's evolution.
- Excel + LinkedIn Recruiter Lite + Notion + invoicing app combo: 4-5 subscriptions > 200 EUR/month, zero coherence.
With Marvin
- One subscription averaging 180 EUR/month: ATS + CRM + AI sourcing + outreach + invoicing + note taker.
- Built-in invoicing: quotes, invoices, follow-ups, revenue forecast.
- Up and running in 5 minutes, no long commitment. Migration from your current tool is handled.

The three questions you are about to ask us

What about my LinkedIn account?
Sends respect cautious quotas adapted to your account tier, with randomized delays. Built to work like a human, not a robot.
What about my data?

The questions we actually get asked
How much does it cost?
I'm starting from a spreadsheet and my LinkedIn network β how do I get going?
My LinkedIn account is my livelihood β no risk?
Does Marvin also help me find engagements, not just candidates?
βIf I gain 30% of my time, that is 30% more activity I can take on.β
