Companies rely on
Resumes, GPA, and interviews — signals that describe candidates instead of showing what they can actually do.
AI-powered hiring, built on real work
Replace Resumes with Real Work.
NuriTouch helps startups discover high-potential students through real business challenges instead of resumes, GPA, and interviews.
Student submits challenge
A real deliverable — not a resume line.
AI extracts skills
Capability signals, mapped automatically.
Company reviews work
Judgment based on demonstrated thinking.
Student gets interview
The work opens the door.
The Problem
Hiring Early Talent Is Broken
Early-career hiring still runs on paper credentials, even though they say very little about real ability.
But research shows
Work samples are one of the strongest predictors of job performance — far stronger than education or interviews alone.
The result
Hiring mistakes cost startups time, money, and growth — and overlooked students never get the chance to prove themselves.
The Solution
A Better Way to Discover Talent
One continuous loop connects companies with proof of ability — from challenge to interview.
Company posts challenge
A real business problem, scoped for students.
Students submit solutions
Decks, prototypes, analyses — actual work.
AI analyzes skills
Capability signals extracted from every submission.
Companies review real work
Evaluate thinking, not self-reported claims.
Top performers win
Interviews and rewards for the best solutions.

Meet the Founder
Hi, I’m Anna Barsukova.
I’m a Ukrainian entrepreneur and international student currently studying International Studies at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (HUFS) in Seoul.
I’ve lived and studied across Ukraine, Germany, Canada, and South Korea, experiencing firsthand how talented students often struggle to prove their abilities beyond a resume.
NuriTouch was born from a simple belief: people should be hired based on what they can do — not just what they say they’ve done.
Today, I’m building NuriTouch to help companies discover overlooked talent while giving students meaningful opportunities to demonstrate their potential through real work.
