  • Implementer directory access

    Tier-gated query against open-to-conversations implementers. Pro+: full contact unlock. Enterprise: bulk export and saved-search alerts.

  • Lead inbox

    Hire-side intakes routed to your tier of visibility. First-claim-wins per tier. Higher tiers see leads earlier.

  • Verified badge

    Permanent placement on the employer-facing partner list. Reduces buyer-side friction when employers compare you to alternatives.

    FDEOS earns subscription + per-lead fees. We never share in your placement fee. You operate under your own state licenses; we run a SaaS lead-gen platform.

FAQ

Before you apply

Who is this for?
Licensed recruitment agencies, boutique AI-specialist firms, and solo recruiters who want a steady inbound flow of qualified AI implementer leads without the cost of building their own demand engine.
Do I have to hold a state employment-agency license?
Yes — in every state you operate. FDEOS is a lead-gen + directory platform; we don't hold any agency licenses. Onboarding includes license confirmation.
What does FDEOS charge?
Monthly subscription (tier-dependent) plus a per-lead fee on claim ($200–$600 by lead quality). We never share in your placement fee or take a cut of any engagement you contract with the employer.
How does first-claim-wins work?
Each lead has a minimum tier visibility. Agencies at or above that tier can claim. Whoever claims first wins. No real-time bidding between agencies (intentionally — keeps the platform on the right side of antitrust hygiene).
Can I refund a bad lead?
Yes — if a lead is clearly fraudulent, duplicate, or unreachable within 5 business days, the per-lead fee is refunded. Subscription is not. We do not refund on outcome.
