inploi raises funding for hiring-focused AI

inploi has raised fresh capital to expand hiring automation tools. The funding will support UK and US growth, alongside new AI tools for high-volume recruitment.


inploi said the funding will support sales and marketing, team growth, and development of Talent Agents, a suite of AI-driven hiring assistants designed to automate sourcing, screening, scheduling, and candidate communications. Its platform works alongside existing applicant tracking systems and is designed to reduce candidate drop-off and improve hiring workflows for employers recruiting at scale.

The business said it has facilitated millions of job applications across more than 70,000 vacancies and signed more than 30 enterprise customers since pivoting to enterprise SaaS in 2021. Its customers include Compass Group, wagamama, Gail’s, PureGym, and multiple NHS trusts. The company has also expanded into the US.

Matthew de la Hey, co-founder and CEO of inploi, said: “Employers are under huge pressure to hire at scale while delivering a better experience for candidates. inploi has proven there’s a better way to do this, and we’re seeing strong demand from organisations that want smarter, more efficient recruitment. YFM’s backing allows us to accelerate our growth, invest further in our product and scale the business internationally.”

Roshan Puri, Partner at YFM Equity Partners, added: “inploi is addressing a real and growing challenge for enterprise employers.”
