Our take

Talent identification and acquisition has always been a challenge for HR teams, but the labor shortage is making it more difficult than ever. The founders of AdeptID believe that poor talent matching is a billion-dollar problem, and they’re aiming to address it with its machine-learning-powered API.

While there’s no shortage of talent search and matching platforms, from LinkedIn to Zoho Recruit, AdeptID sets itself apart by providing an API which plugs into existing infrastructure. Another interesting aspect of AdeptID’s approach is how its ML tech focuses on lesser-explored talent avenues, particularly candidates who don’t hold degrees and might otherwise be filtered out in other talent searches.

Having only launched in 2020, AdeptID's bootstrapped first year brought in an encouraging $1 million. Since then, it's been backed by Zeal Capital Partners, and the company has been scaling operations in the last couple of years. It is also a certified B-corp, and in 2023, partnered with OneTen to improve hiring outcomes for black talent in the US.
