Both sides of hiring put down a small refundable deposit. Ghost an interview, or leave an applicant without a reply for 14 days, and the other side keeps it.

What is new: Deposits on both sides of hiring, released automatically.
Who it is for
Anyone who wants to get through an office or a company or earn from what I know.
The problem: Applicants vanish into silence and employers lose hours to no-shows.
Checked against the market
What exists today: The Circle Back Initiative and Indeed's response badge, which are promises with no money behind them, and no-show deposits on some dating apps.
What it runs on: Interview bookings and application timestamps.
Lab grade: new to the market.
Who wants it
No hands raised yet. Be the first: it is how a Lab company starts being built.
Real counts from the Lab and from this page. Nothing is estimated.
In the Lab
Show Up was invented at the CEOism App Lab, where companies are demoed before anyone leads them. Every hand raised here is counted on this page.
1You picked Show Up.Drive its demo, or open the live app. Every Lab demo is simulated until its CEO arrives.
2Raise your hand.Say you would lead it. A person reads every hand raised and replies. No CV, no interview.
3Choose how you hold it.Free as a co-owner, name your price, or own it outright. You choose; nobody chooses for you.
4Lead it.ceoism builds it out with you and keeps it running. You carry it to your people. If you ever leave the seat, the company waits for its next CEO, and the idea stays yours.
