Invite only · US & Canada

A private network for senior AI product leaders.

Cream is a small, referral-only network of operators shipping the AI products that matter — and the teams hiring them. Every placement directs 1% to a cause the candidate chooses.

Referral only

Every member vouched for by one we trust.

Senior bar

Principal, Staff, Director & above.

Flat 12%

Placement fee, versus 20–25% industry standard.

How it works

Three quiet steps, in their own time.

01

Referred in

A current member or partner vouches for you. We meet, talk craft, and decide together.

02

Quietly matched

When a role lands that fits, we make a warm introduction. Your name, employer and inbox stay private until you say yes.

03

Placed with intent

If it works, 1% of the placement is directed to a cause you chose when you joined.

The 1% Pledge

One percent of every placement, directed by the people we place.

When a candidate joins, they choose a cause that matters to them. When a placement closes, that 1% goes there. No marketing, no annual report — just a quiet line on every invoice.

A note from the desk

"The best AI product people don't have résumés ready, don't take cold DMs, and won't be on a job board. Cream exists to reach them anyway — privately, on their terms, and only when it's actually worth their time."
