inploi, a talent technology platform, has secured £3 million in funding from YFM Equity Partners, alongside support from existing investors. It provides software that works alongside applicant tracking systems to streamline hiring processes and improve candidate engagement, with the funding set to support commercial and product growth.
Following a 2021 pivot to enterprise SaaS, it addresses inefficiencies and poor engagement in high-volume recruitment. The platform simplifies candidate journeys, reduces drop-off and enables faster hiring decisions, helping organisations manage large volumes of applications more effectively. Its technology is designed to reduce manual workloads and enable more personalised engagement at scale, allowing talent teams to focus on higher-value interactions and outcomes.
The investment will support the next phase of growth, including building out sales and marketing capabilities, expanding the team, and accelerating development of Talent Agents, a suite of hiring assistants designed to automate sourcing, screening, scheduling and candidate communications.
To date, its technology has supported millions of job applications across more than 70,000 vacancies. Customers span sectors including hospitality, leisure, healthcare, construction, government, and retail, with organisations such as Compass Group, Wagamama, Gail’s, PureGym and multiple NHS trusts using the platform. It has signed more than 30 enterprise customers and recently expanded into the United States, reflecting demand from employers managing rising application volumes while seeking to improve candidate experience.
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.
inploi is addressing a real and growing challenge for enterprise employers. The team has built a compelling product with clear customer ROI and strong momentum in the UK and US. We're delighted to support inploi on its scale-up journey.
