Inploi, the talent technology platform helping employers hire at scale, has secured £3m in a funding round led by YFM Equity Partners with support from existing investors.
The startup’s platform works alongside existing applicant tracking systems to streamline candidate journeys, reduce drop-off and enable faster and more effective hiring decisions.
By reducing manual task load and enabling more personalised engagement at scale, the technology aims to free talent teams to focus on higher-value interactions and better hiring outcomes.
The investment will support the company’s next phase of commercial and product growth, including building out sales and marketing capabilities, expanding the team and accelerating development of talent agents – a new suite of AI-driven hiring assistants designed to automate sourcing, screening, scheduling and candidate communications.
“Employers are under huge pressure to hire at scale while delivering a better experience for candidates,” says Matthew de la Hey, co-founder and CEO of inploi.
“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.”
To date, inploi’s customers span sectors including hospitality, leisure, healthcare, construction, government and retail with clients like Compass Group, Wagamama, Gail’s, PureGym and multiple NHS trusts using the platform.
