AI-powered recruitment platform Perfect raises $13M in seed funding - SiliconANGLE

Human resources technology startup Talent Fabric Ltd., which does business as Perfect, announced today that it has closed on a $13 million seed funding round as it looks to take on established platforms such as LinkedIn Corp. in talent recruitment. Today's round was led by Target Global and saw participation from Joule Venture and RTP Global, plus a host of individual investors. Based in Israel, Perfect has created what it says is a generative artificial intelligence-powered platform that helps organizations to fill staff vacancies by mapping the profiling career graphs of millions of technology-focused professionals. The company says it wants to break LinkedIn's monopoly on the talent scouting market, so it relies on generative AI to help companies search for the ideal signals for each available position they're looking to fill. Perfect scans dozens of public data sources, including social media and other databases, searching for the ideal candidates whose skills match what an employer is looking for.
