Belong.co

The firm's core business revolves around a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform that assists organizations in discovering, engaging, and hiring talent. It targets growing companies that need to scale their hiring processes efficiently. Belong.co's business model is centered on providing this technology to recruiters, shifting them from a reactive, inbound model to a proactive, outbound strategy. Revenue is generated through subscriptions to this platform. The company has secured $15 million in funding over two rounds, including a $10 million Series B in late 2016 led by Peak XV Partners.

The platform utilizes machine intelligence and predictive analytics to identify candidates who are not only a strong fit for a role but are also likely to be open to new opportunities. It curates data from various online sources, including social media and professional profiles, to build comprehensive candidate profiles, moving beyond the traditional CV. Key features include the ability to engage with these spotted candidates through personalized interactions, aiming to improve conversion rates compared to conventional platforms. By focusing on this targeted and data-informed approach, the service enables businesses to accelerate their hiring cycles and connect with otherwise difficult-to-find talent.
