They were marketers — both working at agencies, both quietly dreaming of building something of their own.The idea hit Alex while using Tinder. What if hiring worked like that? Swipe left or right on candidates. Simple, fast, human.That idea became Swob — an AI-powered hiring platform built specifically for restaurants, where turnover is brutal, managers are stretched thin, and the guest experience lives or dies by who shows up for their shift.We talk about how Emma (their AI hiring assistant) works, why restaurants are still struggling to hire despite dozens of job boards, what it's like to build a company with your sibling, and how two non-technical founders with a marketing background are taking on one of the oldest problems in hospitality.
