What baito does

baito is a curated, two-sided job marketplace focused exclusively on impact-driven employment in the German-speaking market. Operated by baito UG (haftungsbeschränkt), a privately held Berlin-based company founded and led by Max Ernst Stockburger, the platform connects candidates seeking meaningful roles with NGOs, foundations, associations, climate-tech startups, and sustainability-focused employers. Listings are classified by UN Sustainable Development Goals and the platform emphasizes salary transparency, including flags for collective-bargaining coverage. As of the latest reporting period, the platform hosts roughly 5,005 active listings, generates around 406 new postings per week, drives 1.8M+ annual job page views, and serves a base of 45,000+ job-alert subscribers who initiate 75,000+ applications per year.

The product is a web platform built on a modern, largely serverless stack: Vercel for hosting, a Neon PostgreSQL database in eu-central-1 (Frankfurt), PostHog for product analytics, Resend for email, Stripe for payments, Trigger.dev for background automation, Better Auth for authentication, BunnyCDN for media delivery, and OpenStreetMap/Nominatim for geocoding. Beyond the core job-board functionality, baito operates baito Magazine (career guides, salary insights, expert contributions) and the weekly baito Index (proprietary market data on impact-job volumes and remote/hybrid trends), alongside a curated impact-events calendar. SEO-driven topical and city landing pages (14 thematic areas, 25 profession directories with geographic variants) function as the primary candidate acquisition channel.

Monetization is centered on employer job-posting fees, with a referenced pricing page at /de/fuer-arbeitgeber#pricing that suggests tiered packages; the candidate side is free, supported by personalized email alerts. The company pursues a product-led and community-led go-to-market, combining self-serve employer onboarding with content marketing, newsletters, and event curation. Operating geographies are concentrated in six German cities (Berlin, Hamburg, München, Köln, Leipzig, Frankfurt), and no institutional funding, M&A activity, partnerships, or patents were disclosed.
