Your brand, on every review page you share. On Pro now.

An indie recruiter pitches a Series B startup. The candidate is qualified. The submission is clean. The hiring manager opens the review link and sees somebody else's brand on the page.

Most recruiters internalize this as a minor cost of doing business — they're using a tool, the tool is visible, fine. But the signal it sends to the HM is real. Premium-tier engagements come with an implicit expectation that the people on the other side of the deal have a brand of their own. A consumer-grade tool with someone else's wordmark at the top of every page works against that expectation, especially at senior placement fees.

What shipped today

Pro accounts can now set a logo, an accent color, a display name, and an optional tagline. The Submio mark on the top of every review page they share is replaced by their own. The accent color applies to the action buttons. The footer keeps a small "Powered by Submio" line, which is the only place the platform is named on a branded page.

The settings live at /home/settings/branding. Upload a PNG, SVG, or JPEG (≤ 2MB), pick a color, save. The live preview shows the exact layout the hiring manager will see. The change applies to every existing review link as soon as you save — no need to regenerate submissions.

The page does the same work it always did. It just looks like it was built by the agency presenting the candidate.

What this is NOT

This is not white-labeling. Submio is still listed in the footer of every page. The candidate-review URL still lives on gosubmio.com. The product is still ours; this is just a way to make the surface a recruiter is putting in front of their client feel like an extension of the recruiter's own brand.

Full white-labeling — custom subdomain, no Submio mention, your own SSL certificate — ships with the Team plan in Q3 2026. Waitlist agencies get 20% off for life.

Why this is on Pro and not Free

We have an explicit operating principle that every Submio plan ships every feature. Branded review pages are the one place we soften it, and we want to be honest about why.

Two reasons. First: branding is the cleanest paid-tier upgrade trigger we have. A recruiter places one candidate, the fee earns Pro back many times over, and the branded review page makes the next pitch land slightly better. Second: Free has to remain truly free without a reason for us to push limits on usage. The branding wedge gives Free users a concrete reason to upgrade when they want one, and lets us avoid quotas on things like role count or submission count which would compromise the core product principle.

If you're on Free and trying it out for a deal that matters: the upgrade path is one click from the branding settings page. We do not gate the rest of the product behind any tier.
