The backstory
Juicebox, formerly known for its PeopleGPT search, lets recruiters type a plain-English description of who they need and get ranked candidates pulled from over 800 million profiles across many data sources. LinkedIn now builds similar natural-language AI search directly into Recruiter, the tool most of Juicebox's customers already pay for separately, undercutting the reason to buy a second sourcing layer. Juicebox survives on breadth across non-LinkedIn data sources, but the core natural-language search pitch is no longer unique.
