SeekOut

SeekOut is an agentic AI recruiting platform built for sourcing, screening, and engaging hard-to-find talent—including passive candidates, diverse candidates, and technical specialists. Founded in 2017 by Anoop Gupta (former Microsoft Distinguished Engineer) and John Jersin, SeekOut has raised $189M in total funding from Tiger Global Management, Madrona Venture Group, Mayfield, and Founders Circle Capital, reaching a $1.2B valuation in its Series C (2022).

The platform aggregates and enriches over 800 million professional profiles from GitHub, academic publications, patents, LinkedIn, and open-web sources—enabling recruiters to find candidates that traditional ATS searches miss. SeekOut Recruit provides AI-powered Boolean search, talent analytics, diversity dashboards, and automated outreach personalization.

SeekOut Grow supports internal mobility and skills gap analysis for workforce planning. SeekOut Recruit for Government offers cleared-talent sourcing for defense and federal agencies.

In 2025–2026, SeekOut launched AI Agents for autonomous candidate sourcing, initial screening, and CRM nurture campaigns—tripling ARR YoY since Series C. The platform integrates with Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, and iCIMS.

Customers include Microsoft, Atlassian, AMD, LinkedIn, Duolingo, and 1,000+ enterprise and mid-market companies. SeekOut's talent intelligence features include diversity analytics (gender, ethnicity, veteran status, disability), competitive benchmarking, and talent market mapping.
