How to Pitch the Company to Candidates

โ„น๏ธ

Use this page to introduce EverAI to candidates clearly and honestly.

The goal is to attract people who are genuinely excited โ€” not to oversell.

๐Ÿญ About EverAI

Use these talking points when introducing the company to a candidate.

The headline

  • EverAI is the company behind Candy.ai โ€” one of the leading AI companion platforms in the world.

The scale

  • Nine-figure annualized revenue
  • $10M in seed funding
  • Goal: 100M users in the next 12 months, 500M beyond that

The product

  • AI companionship: users design and interact with AI characters through text, AI phone calls, image and video generation, and a memory system that builds long-term context
  • The product operates in the NSFW/adult content space โ€” this is core to the business and must be raised clearly with every candidate before they proceed

The team

  • Fully remote, ~100 people, worldwide, most coming from Tier 1 tech companies
  • Co-founded by Thomas Lacroix (CMO, ex-Curatible/MTK Digital) and Michael Monin (CTO, ex-MTK Digital/Zipchat)

What's coming next

  • AI Live Streaming โ€” an industry first, currently in development

  • Fast career progression as the company scales aggressively

  • Access to top-tier AI tools (ChatGPT, Cursor, Hugging Face, Gemini, and more)
  • Work alongside seasoned founders with a proven track record

โ‰๏ธ Other Questions Candidates Might Have

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ On Safety & Ethics

Some candidates will have questions about working in the adult AI space. Here's how to address it honestly:

  • EverAI built EverGuard โ€” a proprietary AI-powered moderation system designed to prevent prohibited content and ensure a safe environment for users
  • The company is independently audited by a trusted external audit firm and overseen by a Board of Directors
  • Payment providers, banks, and partners regularly audit EverAI to meet strict compliance standards
  • The company has raised $10M from investors who conducted rigorous due diligence before investing

This is not a grey-area operation. It is a compliance-first, investor-backed company that takes its responsibilities seriously.

Reality Check: Who EverAI is NOT For

Setting the right expectations upfront saves everyone time. Be direct with candidates about this before they go further in the process.

EverAI is high-performance and fast-paced.

We are NOT a fit for candidates who:

  • Need fixed processes and clear playbooks to do their best work
  • Take weeks to plan before executing โ€” we move fast, sometimes shipping in hours
  • Want a role with a narrow, defined scope and no expectation to go beyond it
  • Only want to manage or oversee โ€” everyone at EverAI is hands-on, always
  • Struggle with accountability and ownership โ€” we give a lot of trust, and we expect people to own their outcomes and raise their hand when something goes wrong
