London-based AI startup Metaview has announced a $35 million Series B funding round to facilitate its future product development for talent acquisition leaders.
The funding round was led by GV (Google Ventures), with participation from existing investors including Plural, Vertex Ventures, Seedcamp, Coeluis Capital, True Equity, Victor Riparbelli, and Barney Hussey-Yeo.
It follows on from a previous $7 million funding round in March last year, bringing total investment in the company to $50 million since its inception in 2018.
“Metaview is fundamentally rethinking how hiring is done with AI,” commented Vidu Shanmugarajah, Partner at GV.
“We’ve been impressed by both the growth and customer expansion, with leading companies across recruitment, financial services, enterprise tech, and consumer internet scaling their usage year after year.”
Going beyond ‘the wedge’ in recruitment technology
Speaking exclusively to UNLEASH, Metaview CEO and Co-Founder Siadhal Magos says the Series B funding will allow the company to build out its product portfolio and market position.
“We built the #1 AI Notetaker for recruiting, but that was just the wedge. It gave us access to the most valuable data in hiring: your conversations,” he says.
“Now, with $50M in total funding, we have the resources to put our broader vision into action: to become the go-to AI platform for hiring.”
Magos adds that Metaview is a building a suite of “intelligent agents” that will arm talent leaders with the “data, efficiency, and precision they need” across every stage of the recruiting process.
“This new capital lets us hit fast-forward: launching more advanced agents, expanding into deeper hiring workflows, and doubling down on our 10x community to help talent leaders master AI end to end,” he explains.
In a world of intelligence-on-tap, speed is the advantage and talent is everything. The team you build is the company you build.”
