Replit moves fast, and we needed a way to get in front of developers at scale without relying solely on ads. SideShift made that possible. The sheer volume of organic content we were able to push out through their creators turned into real distribution and traction for us.

SideShift is geared toward Gen Z and cuts through fluff on sites like LinkedIn and Handshake. I've seen better response rates, and with strong filtering, SideShift delivers the best candidates of any job board I've used. Recommend to any consumer startup focused on growth.
