Which AI recruiting startups make the most money today?

Job&Talent currently ranks first among AI recruiting startups by revenue, followed by ZipRecruiter, iCIMS, Turing and Andela.

Job&Talent generated €1.8B in annual revenue in 2024, putting it well ahead of the other companies in our ranking. ZipRecruiter comes second with $449M in FY2025 revenue, while iCIMS ranks third with approximately $400M in annual recurring revenue (ARR) as of May 2022. Turing follows with an estimated $350M annualized revenue run-rate in December 2025, and Andela ranks fifth with approximately $264M in reported 2024 revenue.

These companies make money in quite different ways. Job&Talent supplies workers to employers, ZipRecruiter operates a recruitment marketplace, and iCIMS sells enterprise recruiting software. Turing and Andela combine technology-driven matching with technical talent services.

The next five positions belong to Greenhouse ($237M), Phenom (~$232M), HackerRank (~$221M), CEIPAL (~$172M) and Eightfold AI (~$96.6M). These companies mainly sell recruiting platforms, assessments and talent intelligence technology.

We identified 59 ranked startups, including 54 with financial indicators and five whose positions rely on other measurable evidence of commercial scale. Two recently acquired companies remain unranked because their standalone revenue is unavailable.

The companies with the largest revenue bases are generally broader staffing, recruitment marketplace or enterprise software businesses. Younger AI-native recruiting companies are growing, but their disclosed financial figures remain much smaller.

The figures below preserve each company's reported metric and period. ARR, annualized run-rates and third-party revenue estimates should not be read as identical to recognized annual revenue.

Rank	AI recruiting startup	Revenue indicator	Period
1	Job&Talent	€1.8B annual revenue	2024
2	ZipRecruiter	$449M fiscal-year revenue	FY2025
3	iCIMS	~$400M ARR	May 2022
4	Turing	~$350M revenue run-rate	Dec 2025
5	Andela	~$264M annual revenue	2024
6	Greenhouse	$237M annual revenue	Nov 2023
7	Phenom	~$232M annual revenue	Oct 2024
8	HackerRank	~$221M annual revenue	Jun 2024
9	CEIPAL	~$172M annual revenue	Oct 2024
10	Eightfold AI	~$96.6M annual revenue	Nov 2024

Why are companies spending money on AI recruiting software now?

Companies are investing in AI recruiting software because recruiters are dealing with more applications while employers remain reluctant to expand their hiring teams.

LinkedIn's 2026 Future of Talent report found that global hiring was approximately 30% below pre-pandemic levels, while applications per applicant had increased by 30%.

According to iHire's 2026 State of Online Recruiting report, 24.2% of surveyed employers were using AI in recruitment, compared with 25.9% in 2025, 14.7% in 2024 and 4.9% in 2023.

AI adoption grew almost fivefold between 2023 and 2026, but the latest survey actually shows a small decline from the previous year.

Among employers using AI, 66.2% use it to write job advertisements, 62.3% to compose candidate messages and 29.9% to screen applications or resumes. Only 9.1% use it to interview candidates.

Most employers are still using AI for relatively straightforward tasks, far from the fully autonomous recruitment promised by many vendors.

How much revenue does Job&Talent generate?

Job&Talent is the highest-revenue AI recruiting startup in our ranking, with €1.8B in annual revenue for 2024.

The Spanish-founded company confirmed the figure in September 2025, alongside financial results showing that it had maintained revenue despite a 9.5% contraction in the broader staffing market.

Job&Talent also reported €61.3M in underlying EBITDA, up 23%, and a contribution margin of 27.3%, an improvement of 6.2 percentage points. In the United States, revenue grew 5.7% while the comparable staffing market contracted 9.4%.

The company's reported underlying EBITDA equaled approximately 3.4% of annual revenue. That relatively narrow margin reflects the economics of a workforce business, where labor services account for much of the money flowing through the company.

Job&Talent has increasingly positioned itself as an AI-powered workforce management platform. It reports client productivity gains of up to 30% and a 3.3-times cost-to-serve advantage over incumbents. These are company-reported claims, rather than independently measured industry averages.

Job&Talent earns revenue by supplying and managing workers, with AI supporting matching and operations. Its €1.8B turnover therefore cannot be directly equated with sales of AI recruiting software.

Is ZipRecruiter still making money as AI changes recruitment?

ZipRecruiter remains one of the largest AI recruiting startups, with $449M in FY2025 revenue, although its business has shrunk considerably over the past two years.

The company's SEC filings show revenue falling from $646M in 2023 to $474M in 2024 and $449M in 2025.

That amounts to an approximately 30.5% decline over two years. The company also reported a $33M net loss in 2025, compared with a $12.9M loss in 2024, while adjusted EBITDA fell from $78M to $40.8M.

ZipRecruiter continues to operate a substantial marketplace. Its fourth-quarter 2025 results showed 59,104 quarterly paid employers, compared with 57,833 one year earlier, an increase of approximately 2.2%.

Revenue per paid employer, however, decreased from $1,920 to $1,889 over the same period.

The company has managed to increase its number of paying employers slightly, but spending per employer remains under pressure. Its AI-powered matching technology has not been enough to reverse the broader revenue decline.

How big is iCIMS compared with newer AI recruiting startups?

iCIMS remains one of the biggest enterprise recruiting software companies in our ranking, with approximately $400M ARR reported in May 2022.

The figure came from a Reuters interview with the company's CEO. Although it is an older measurement, it establishes that iCIMS had already reached hundreds of millions in recurring software revenue before the generative AI boom.

iCIMS sells recruiting technology to employers, including applicant tracking, candidate management, hiring workflows and automation.

The scale becomes clearer when we consider younger specialists. Eightfold AI ranks tenth with approximately $96.6M in modeled 2024 annual revenue. SeekOut ranks thirty-first with approximately $25.2M in modeled revenue from 2024, while Juicebox ranks fortieth with $10M ARR as of September 2025.

These figures come from different periods and sources, so the comparison is indicative rather than a precise measurement of their relative revenue today.

Still, iCIMS's historical ARR shows how valuable an established enterprise customer base can be. New AI recruiting startups must convince employers to buy their products, while companies such as iCIMS can introduce AI features to organizations already paying for recruitment software.

Are Turing and Andela still mainly recruiting companies?

Turing and Andela remain major AI-enabled talent businesses, but both have expanded beyond the conventional business of helping companies recruit employees.

Turing ranks fourth with approximately $350M in estimated annualized revenue run-rate as of December 2025, according to Sacra. The company initially became known for matching employers with remote software developers.

Its activities have since expanded toward AI data work and technical services supporting the development of artificial intelligence systems.

Andela, ranked fifth with approximately $264M in reported 2024 revenue, also emerged from the market for technical talent. Its platform helps organizations find and work with skilled professionals internationally.

Greenhouse, Phenom and Eightfold AI primarily sell software products to organizations managing employees or candidates. Turing and Andela also monetize services associated with supplying technical talent, which can produce much larger turnover without implying an equally large software subscription business.

Which AI recruiting software companies have the highest revenue?

Greenhouse ranks first among dedicated recruiting software platforms in our startup ranking, followed by Phenom and CEIPAL.

Greenhouse occupies sixth place overall with $237M in reported annual revenue as of November 2023. Phenom ranks seventh at approximately $232M in estimated annual revenue as of October 2024, while CEIPAL comes ninth with approximately $172M in estimated annual revenue from the same year.

These companies cover different parts of recruitment. Greenhouse is known for applicant tracking and hiring workflows. Phenom sells talent experience and recruiting automation technology. CEIPAL combines recruitment software with staffing and workforce management tools.

Avature ranks twelfth with approximately $170M in reported 2019 annual revenue, although the age of that figure makes current comparisons uncertain. Workable ranks seventeenth with approximately $69.5M in estimated annual revenue as of October 2024.

Teamtailor ranks twenty-first with SEK 496M in 2024 consolidated turnover, supported by Swedish financial accounts. Beamery follows at twenty-second with £34.9M in FY2025 turnover from UK filed accounts.

We count nine startups in the ranking's financial top tier, where recorded indicators exceed $100M. Those figures mix realized revenue, ARR, run-rates and estimates. Greenhouse's company-attributed revenue and Teamtailor's statutory accounts are also stronger financial references than third-party modeling estimates.

Which AI sourcing and candidate-matching startups make the most revenue?

ZipRecruiter leads the AI sourcing and candidate-matching category in our ranking, followed by Eightfold AI, Loxo, HeyJobs and Findem.

ZipRecruiter operates a recruitment marketplace. Eightfold AI sells talent intelligence technology to enterprises. Loxo provides recruiting software and sourcing tools, while HeyJobs focuses on recruitment marketing and matching. Findem specializes in AI-driven talent search.

Below this group are Beamery, hireEZ, Gem, SeekOut, SourceWhale and Juicebox.

Beamery's £34.9M FY2025 turnover is supported by UK financial accounts, whereas hireEZ, Gem, SeekOut and SourceWhale rely on third-party revenue estimates in the ranking.

Juicebox reported $10M ARR in September 2025, giving us a direct financial indicator for its AI sourcing business. The older providers still have larger documented revenue bases, while newer specialists are trying to automate more of the candidate discovery process.

Which AI interviewing startups earn the most money?

HireVue ranks first among dedicated AI interviewing startups in our ranking, followed by Karat, Talview and ConverzAI.

HireVue ranks eleventh overall with approximately $89M in estimated annual revenue as of June 2024. Karat follows in sixteenth position with approximately $73.6M in reported 2024 revenue.

Talview ranks twenty-ninth with approximately $26.1M in estimated 2025 revenue, while ConverzAI ranks thirty-seventh with approximately $10.9M in estimated annual revenue for the same year.

The products cover different types of interviewing. HireVue provides enterprise interviewing and assessment technology. Karat focuses on technical interviews. Talview offers interviewing and testing products, while ConverzAI uses AI voice technology for recruitment screening.

Screenloop and Willo provide further examples of monetization in this category, reporting $6.6M and $5.4M in 2024 annual revenue, respectively.

More recent AI interviewing specialists are gaining attention, particularly Metaview, Humanly, Alex and Sapia.ai. Their available figures, however, primarily measure customer adoption or interview volume rather than revenue.

Can AI interviewers replace human recruiters and actually improve hiring?

AI interviewers can now handle millions of screening conversations and save recruiters time, but there is little evidence that they can replace human recruiters or consistently make better hiring decisions.

Humanly reported more than five million cumulative interviews and said its platform was engaging more than 250,000 candidates each month.

Sapia.ai reported 8.3M cumulative chat interviews in its 2025 review, while Alex reported more than one million AI interviews in its Y Combinator company profile.

These volumes demonstrate that automated interviews have moved beyond small pilots, although cumulative interview counts cannot establish how many human recruiters have been replaced.

LinkedIn's 2025 Future of Recruiting report found that recruiting professionals experimenting with or integrating generative AI reported saving approximately 20% of their working week on average, equivalent to roughly one working day in a standard five-day week.

Yet HireVue's 2026 Global AI in Hiring Report found that while 77% of surveyed HR teams used AI regularly, only 41% of hiring teams fully trusted it.

Candidates are skeptical too. iHire's 2026 survey found that 44.3% of jobseekers viewed employers' increasing use of AI negatively, compared with 21.8% who viewed it positively.

Automated screening, scheduling and routine candidate communications are already delivering measurable efficiency gains. Proving that AI consistently selects better employees would require reliable evidence about subsequent job performance, retention, hiring mistakes and fairness across candidate groups.

Which AI assessment startups generate the most revenue?

HackerRank ranks first among AI assessment startups in our ranking, followed by Criteria, CodeSignal, TestGorilla and iMocha.

HackerRank occupies eighth position overall with approximately $221M in modeled annual revenue as of June 2024. Criteria ranks eighteenth at approximately $62.8M in modeled 2024 revenue, followed by CodeSignal at approximately $53.8M.

TestGorilla ranks twenty-fourth with approximately $36.2M in estimated annual revenue as of July 2025, and iMocha ranks twenty-fifth at approximately $33.7M as of September 2025.

Further down the ranking are Harver, Codility, Glider AI, Plum, Bryq, Arctic Shores and Vervoe. Their recorded revenue indicators range from approximately $20M to $3M, although several figures are historical or modeled.

These companies are addressing an increasingly important recruiting problem: employers need ways to verify candidate skills when resumes and applications can easily be written or improved with generative AI.

HireVue's 2026 Global AI in Hiring Report, based on responses from more than 3,100 hiring managers, found that 71% of candidates use AI for resumes.

That makes practical tests, structured assessments and skills verification potentially more valuable as employers try to distinguish candidates' actual abilities from AI-assisted applications.

What other AI recruiting startups have meaningful revenue?

Beyond the ten largest companies, our AI recruiting ranking contains dozens of startups with revenue indicators ranging from tens of millions of dollars to relatively small early-stage businesses.

Sense ranks fourteenth with approximately $75M in modeled annual revenue as of November 2024. It focuses on candidate engagement and recruitment communications.

Gem ranks twenty-sixth with approximately $31M in estimated 2024 revenue, while SmartRecruiters ranks twenty-seventh with approximately €26M in revenue recorded for September–December 2025.

SmartRecruiters was acquired by SAP in September 2025. The recorded figure covers only its post-acquisition contribution during part of the year, so it should not be mistaken for a normal twelve-month revenue total.

Ashby ranks twenty-eighth at approximately $28.2M in modeled annual revenue as of December 2024, although its more recent operating performance suggests that the historical estimate does not capture its latest growth.

Further down, Recruit CRM has a founder-reported revenue claim exceeding $10M as of April 2026, without a clearly stated accounting period. Recruiterflow reported more than $5.3M ARR as of March 2026.

Smaller companies such as Manatal, Bryq, Arctic Shores and Vervoe show that recruitment automation and assessments can also support businesses with revenue indicators in the low single-digit millions.

Many figures in this part of the ranking come from external company-data providers rather than financial statements, so small differences between modeled estimates should not be treated as precise financial comparisons.

Are newer AI recruiting startups making real money or just attracting users?

Several younger AI recruiting startups are already earning millions of dollars, while others have reached thousands of companies or millions of interviews without disclosing comparable revenue.

Juicebox ranks fortieth with $10M ARR as of September 2025. Contrario ranks forty-sixth with a revenue run-rate exceeding $6M in May 2026, while Dex ranks fifty-third with approximately $1.8M in annualized revenue reported in April 2026.

Juicebox focuses on AI-powered candidate sourcing. Contrario operates an AI recruitment marketplace, while Dex combines recruitment technology with a newer marketplace approach.

Investors are backing these businesses at very different stages. Juicebox announced $36M in funding in September 2025, including a $30M Series A led by Sequoia Capital. Humanly later announced a $25M Series B to expand its AI hiring technology.

Metaview raised an additional $60M in September 2026, bringing its total funding to $110M, while reporting that more than 7,000 companies used its products.

Some companies have much larger adoption figures than their disclosed financial evidence suggests.

Employ ranks fifty-fifth using a scale indicator of more than 23,000 customers as of 2024 across its recruiting software brands, including Jobvite, Lever and JazzHR. Metaview follows at fifty-sixth with more than 7,000 companies using its products.

Humanly ranks fifty-seventh with more than five million cumulative interviews. Alex follows at fifty-eighth with more than one million interviews, while Sapia.ai ranks fifty-ninth with 8.3M cumulative interviews.

These indicators measure different things. Employ reports adoption across several recruitment software brands, Metaview focuses on interview intelligence and automation, while Humanly, Alex and Sapia.ai emphasize automated candidate interactions.

We cannot establish which of these companies earns the most revenue from their customer or interview counts. The strongest direct evidence of monetization among younger AI-native specialists comes from the ARR and run-rate disclosures of companies such as Juicebox, Contrario and Dex.

The following table completes our ranking. Positions 55–59 are based on quantified commercial adoption rather than financial revenue.

Are big software companies buying AI recruiting startups?

Yes. Acquisitions involving SmartRecruiters, BrightHire and HiredScore show that major software companies increasingly want to own AI recruiting technology.

SAP completed its acquisition of SmartRecruiters on September 11, 2025, adding recruiting technology to its SuccessFactors human capital management business.

SmartRecruiters remains twenty-seventh in our startup ranking, with approximately €26M in post-acquisition segment revenue for September–December 2025.

Zoom acquired BrightHire in December 2025, bringing interview intelligence technology into its broader communications and productivity ecosystem.

Workday acquired HiredScore in 2024, adding AI-powered candidate matching and talent intelligence technology to its HR software offering.

BrightHire and HiredScore remain unranked because comparable standalone revenue figures have not been disclosed.

All three acquisitions concern technology that can be integrated into existing employee records, recruitment workflows and business communications. They also show that acquisition is becoming an important route for recruiting startups to reach large enterprise customers.

Can AI recruiting startups grow when employers are hiring less?

AI recruiting startups can grow even when companies are hiring fewer people, but the results depend heavily on how they make money.

Job&Talent maintained its 2024 revenue despite a contracting staffing market and improved underlying EBITDA by 23%.

ZipRecruiter, meanwhile, experienced a substantial two-year revenue decline as employer hiring demand remained weak.

Ashby reported revenue growth exceeding 100% over the year preceding May 2026, despite the broader recruiting environment.

Staffing and recruitment marketplace revenue tends to follow job openings, hiring activity and employer spending. Recruiting software can also grow by replacing older systems or helping companies reduce administrative work.

An employer might cut job advertising while paying more for software that allows a smaller recruiting team to handle applications efficiently.

Are AI recruiting agents replacing traditional applicant tracking systems?

AI recruiting agents are becoming more common, but traditional applicant tracking systems remain central to how most employers manage hiring.

The latest evidence from Bullhorn's 2026 Recruitment Industry Trends report shows how far the market has progressed.

Only 10% of surveyed staffing firms reported having agentic AI embedded throughout their workflows. Meanwhile, 54% had automation in place for candidate search.

Search automation is already relatively common, but fully integrated AI recruiting workflows are still rare.

Traditional ATS platforms manage candidate records, applications, hiring decisions and collaboration between recruiters and managers. AI agents can perform specific tasks within those processes, such as sourcing candidates, sending messages or conducting preliminary interviews.

Greenhouse, Phenom, CEIPAL, Workable, Teamtailor and Ashby all operate in broader recruiting software categories where AI can be added to existing workflows.

Newer specialists such as Juicebox and Metaview are approaching recruitment from the automation side, then expanding the tasks their products handle.

The more immediate competitive threat is that AI-native products could capture valuable parts of recruiting workflows, rather than employers suddenly abandoning every established ATS.

Could AI hiring regulations slow recruiting startups?

Regulation could make AI recruiting more expensive to develop and sell, especially for startups building systems that evaluate candidates or influence employment decisions.

The European Union's AI Act treats certain employment-related AI applications as high-risk. Under the current timetable, the relevant obligations for these systems are scheduled to apply from December 2027.

Those obligations cover areas including risk management, documentation, data governance, transparency and human oversight.

New York City already regulates qualifying automated employment decision tools under Local Law 144. Enforcement began in July 2023, with requirements involving bias audits and notices to affected candidates or employees.

Software that helps write a job advertisement generally presents fewer regulatory concerns than technology that scores applicants or substantially influences hiring decisions.

Larger enterprise software providers may be better equipped to support compliance teams, audit procedures and customer documentation. Smaller companies may have to spend more of their resources demonstrating that their systems meet the relevant requirements.

The burden could therefore fall more heavily on startups building automated candidate evaluation systems than on those focused on administrative tasks.

Can AI-native recruiting startups catch Greenhouse, iCIMS and ZipRecruiter?

AI-native recruiting startups can become serious competitors, but the available financial evidence does not yet show them catching the largest established recruiting platforms.

ZipRecruiter ranks second with $449M in FY2025 revenue, iCIMS ranks third with approximately $400M ARR as of May 2022, and Greenhouse ranks sixth with $237M in reported annual revenue as of November 2023.

Juicebox, a younger AI sourcing specialist, reported $10M ARR in September 2025. Contrario and Dex disclosed smaller annualized revenue run-rates during 2026.

Ashby offers a more encouraging example of how newer recruiting platforms can gain ground. At its Ashby One event in May 2026, the company announced that its customer base had grown from 2,400 to more than 4,400 over the previous year, an increase exceeding 83%. Revenue also grew by more than 100% during that period.

Ashby combines applicant tracking, analytics, scheduling, candidate management and AI-assisted workflows, allowing it to compete across several activities that employers previously handled through separate tools.

It remains twenty-eighth in our revenue ranking, based on approximately $28.2M in modeled annual revenue as of December 2024. The newer growth disclosure does not provide an updated revenue total, but it shows that employers are willing to switch to newer recruiting platforms.

The most promising route for AI-native startups is to expand beyond one narrow recruiting task. A company that starts by finding candidates could eventually offer outreach, screening, scheduling and broader recruitment management.

Enterprise recruiting remains difficult to take over quickly, however. Employers need reliable candidate records, workflow integrations, permissions, reporting and compliance support. Newer companies will need to provide those capabilities while maintaining their technological advantage.

What are the top AI recruiting startups by revenue today?

Job&Talent is currently the top AI recruiting startup by revenue, followed by ZipRecruiter, iCIMS, Turing and Andela.

Job&Talent's €1.8B in 2024 revenue puts it first in our ranking, while ZipRecruiter's $449M FY2025 revenue makes it the second-largest. iCIMS, Turing and Andela complete the top five using their respective ARR, run-rate and reported annual revenue indicators.

Nine startups occupy positions associated with financial indicators above $100M, although the figures include different periods and accounting definitions.

Younger AI-native specialists such as Juicebox, Contrario and Dex have demonstrated genuine monetization, but their financial scale remains much smaller than that of the leading recruitment platforms.

For now, Job&Talent leads the revenue ranking. The most interesting competitive changes are happening further down, where AI-native companies are trying to turn sourcing, interviewing and assessment automation into much larger recruiting businesses.
