Mappa is a voice-behavior intelligence platform for hiring.
We read behavior from 30 seconds of voice, map it to your company culture, and match for compatibility.
Our model reads behavior, but our network of recruiting partners take it from there:
every shortlist and every conversation is managed by someone who understands you and your needs.
Three talents vetted for skills, behavior, and culture. Only those worth your time.
Once you’ve picked your teammate, all that’s left to do is seal the deal.
Our talent partners track how your people are doing long after the onboarding.
You can’t afford to keep hiring the way you always have.
What we measure in a voice, and what it tells you.
The music of how you speak. Pitch variability, speech rate, pause length.
Emotional regulation
+2.1The shape of the words you choose. Lexical diversity, syntactic complexity, abstract vs. concrete language.
Need for cognition
+1.8How the conversation moves between you. Turn-taking, hedging, response to challenge.
Assertiveness
+0.6All the signals get mapped to behavior, grounded in peer-reviewed instruments.
We read how your company operates, beyond generic culture surveys.
We screen and vet for the right skills.
We match for complementary traits, apply hard exclusions, and have humans oversee throughout.
Our model feeds from real placement outcomes, making each match better than the last.

The science is complex, but the answers aren’t. If yours isn’t here, let’s talk.
Within 72 hours you’ll receive a shortlist of top-fit candidates based on their behavior alignment, experience, and communication style.
We’ll keep working. We recalibrate based on your feedback and deliver a refreshed shortlist until you find the right match. You don’t pay until you hire.
No. Try us on a single role. Month-to-month or one-time fee, your choice.
Behavioral voice analysis maps how a person actually communicates, decides, and collaborates — the signals that drive real cultural fit, not the surface ones a résumé can show.
Absolutely. The shortlist is a recommendation, not an obligation. You move forward only with people you’re excited about.
