inploi, the fast-growing talent technology platform helping employers hire at scale, today announces that it has secured £3m funding in a round led by YFM Equity Partners, alongside support from existing investors.
Following a 2021 pivot to enterprise SaaS, to address growing inefficiencies and poor engagement in high-volume recruitment, inploi’s platform works alongside existing applicant tracking systems to streamline candidate journeys, reduce drop-off and enable faster, more effective hiring decisions.
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.
To date, inploi’s white-labelled technology has supported millions of job applications across more than 70,000 vacancies, with customers spanning sectors including hospitality, leisure, healthcare, construction, government, and retail. Organisations such as Compass Group, Wagamama, Gail’s, PureGym and multiple NHS trusts use the platform to simplify hiring processes and improve engagement with applicants.
Since launching its platform, the company has signed more than 30 enterprise customers and recently expanded into the US market, reflecting strong demand from employers managing rising application volumes while under pressure to improve candidate experience.
Matthew de la Hey, co-founder and CEO of inploi, said: “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.”
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.
Roshan Puri, Partner at YFM Equity Partners, added: “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.”
