About Gigin

Gigin Technologies Private Limited operates an AI-powered recruitment platform, Gigin.ai, that combines hiring and employee verification. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Bengaluru, India, the company was started by Surinder Bhagat, Mahesh Kumar, and Majed Al Tassan. Surinder Bhagat, the CEO, has a background in HR leadership at companies like Flipkart and Lenskart, with a degree in Computer Science & Engineering and an MBA.

Gigin is designed to streamline the entire hiring process, from creating job descriptions to making offers. The platform, referred to as Gigin WorkOS, unifies hiring, verification, and AI automation. It utilizes autonomous AI agents for tasks like sourcing candidates, screening, and scheduling interviews, distinguishing itself from chatbot-based assistants. The system features a proprietary "Trust Graph and SkillFit engine" to assess and verify candidates, aiming for both speed and reliability. One of the platform's core components is its integrated background verification (BGV) engine, Verifyin.ai, which performs identity, employment, education, and criminal checks without external vendors, adapting to industry-specific risks. This integration is intended to reduce manual coordination and improve efficiency, especially in high-volume hiring scenarios.

The company's business model is usage-based, where clients purchase credits for completed actions rather than paying a recurring SaaS subscription fee. This model aims to offer enterprise-level automation at a lower operational cost compared to traditional platforms. Gigin serves various sectors, including Staffing, BFSI, Logistics, Healthcare, and BPO/CX. It also integrates with existing HR tools like ATS, HRIS, and payroll systems. The company has engaged in strategic collaborations, such as a partnership with UNICEF YuWaah's YouthHub, to provide young people with access to employment and skilling opportunities, particularly in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities.
