Million-Dollar Biller: The AI That Builds Elite Recruiters
Two million-dollar billers. A $4 million book. They walked away from all of it — at the peak of their performance — because they believed most recruiters were about to learn the hard way that AI doesn't save careers. It exposes the ones built on shaky ground.

Seb Sharpe is the co-founder of Millee, an AI recruitment intelligence platform powered by 15 million tokens of what he believes to be the highest-quality data in recruiting. He's also co-founder of Generate, the "business in a box" infrastructure play built for the next generation of agency recruiters. Before any of that, he and his business partner Charlie Rawlings — friends since age 12 — built Inventure into a $4M renewable energy search firm out of Los Angeles. Then they walked away from the desk to build the thing they thought the industry was missing.
In this conversation, Seb makes the case most recruiters don't want to hear: the ones betting on AI to save their careers are actually accelerating their own irrelevance. He explains why the contingency hit ratio sits stubbornly at 25%, why "more emails faster" is the wrong problem to solve, and why reputations across the industry are about to be won and lost at speeds nobody's prepared for.
He breaks down the math behind a million-dollar desk that almost nobody talks about — the first $400K happens between 8:30 and 5:30, and the remaining $600K happens between 5:30 and 10pm, for months on end. He shares why "only the paranoid survive" is the operating principle of every elite biller he knows, even in their best quarters. And he reveals the mentor advice from Joel Slanning that took Inventure from $1M to $4M with healthy margins.
You'll also get an inside look at Millee itself — how it sits inside your inbox like a $3M biller looking over your shoulder, how its health-score dashboard exposes the deals you think are alive but aren't, and why it's just as powerful for entry-level recruiters as it is for top performers. Plus Seb's read on the bifurcation coming for the industry: the recruiters who'll use AI to triple their output, and the ones who'll quietly fall behind.
