Free to start. Pay only for outreach.
Research, resume help and your first matches cost nothing. You pay when you want Backdoor to write to founders for you.
Free, for everyone
- Research on your background, from your LinkedIn, resume or a voice note
- Career advice and help with your resume
- A demo search: startups that fit you, and a sample email to one founder
- A place in the talent pool: when a partner startup fits you, the team introduces you by hand
Paid: outreach
- A first email to the founder of each startup that fits you, up to 10 new founders a day (or up to 20 if you ask)
- Each one sent from your own Gmail, only after you reply SEND
- Three follow-ups in the same thread, 3, 4 and 5 days apart, which stop when someone replies and don't count toward your daily number
- A text the moment a founder replies
Two price lists.
Which one you're on depends on the number you write from: an Indian number pays in rupees, any other in dollars.
In dollars
$1 for your first 7 days
- Quarterly$19 a month, billed every 3 months$59
- Monthlybilled every month$29
- Lifetimeone payment, no renewal$149
The first 7 days of a monthly or quarterly plan cost $1 on your first purchase; then the plan's price. Cancel anytime.

Buy another pass while one is running and its days start after yours end.
What comes with a pass.
Reply guarantee. On a 30 and 90-day pass, if 50 first emails have gone out and no founder has replied by the time it's about to end, it runs 30 days longer, once per purchase.
Welcome offer. If your first purchase is a 30 and 90-day pass and you start paying within 3 hours of seeing your first matches, it runs 30 days longer. Anyone who has paid before, for any plan, doesn't get it.
Invite a friend. When someone you invite buys their first pass, it runs 30 days longer, and so does yours. A refund takes the days back.

Questions, answered.
The chat, research on your background, resume help and a demo search are free. Outreach is paid: in dollars, $1 for the first 7 days, then a monthly or quarterly plan, or lifetime; in rupees, a one-time pass from ₹999.
It depends on the number you write from. An Indian number pays in rupees for one-time passes; any other number pays in dollars. The price Backdoor quotes in the chat and the price at checkout are the same.
The dollar monthly and quarterly plans renew until you cancel, and you can cancel anytime. Lifetime is one payment. Rupee passes are one payment each and never renew; buying another adds its days to what you have left.
No. Backdoor fills in no forms and needs no posted role. It writes a short note to the person who hires, about why you fit them.
No, nothing can. It does the research, the emails and the follow-ups. The interview is still you.
