Example role brief
“RHEL administrator with 5+ years near Annapolis Junction, Maryland, with Secret or higher — verification required.”

Discovery expansionkept separate
Evidence gapskept visible
The sourcing problem
Federal talent research without turning breadcrumbs into clearance claims.
Federal programs, contractor ecosystems, military backgrounds, and clearance language create useful discovery context — but public text is not authoritative proof of a current clearance.
Role intelligence
Separate hiring truth from search recall.
Discovery expansion should help you find more relevant people without silently becoming a new hiring requirement.

01Executable
Public GovCon context
Public contracts, organizations, and professional evidence can inform the search plan.
02Guided
Cleared recruiting databases
Recruiter-run lane for account-controlled cleared talent surfaces.
03Provider optional
Licensed people data
Runs only when a supported provider is connected and useful for the role.
Evidence-first review
Know why a person surfaced.
Candidate relevance, verified facts, weak signals, contradictions, and missing evidence should remain distinguishable during review.
Sensitive claims stay bounded
Clearance-related public signals remain needs-verification unless authoritative evidence is available.
Geography becomes a search system
Expand a worksite into nearby talent corridors without silently changing the actual location requirement.
Public context ≠ candidate truth
Company, contract, and program data can guide discovery without being promoted to candidate-level facts.
