About Qneiform

Qneiform operates as a talent intelligence platform, providing human capital data and analytics with an initial focus on the financial services and legal sectors. Founded in 2022 by Thomas Percy, a former hedge-fund headhunter, the company aims to address the inefficiencies of relying on expensive recruiters and opaque talent markets. Percy's seven years of experience as a headhunter in London provided him with intimate knowledge of the industry's challenges and the user's workflows, which spurred the creation of the company. The firm is headquartered in Budapest, Hungary, with additional offices in London and Amsterdam.

The company's core offering is an AI-powered software platform built on a proprietary and continuously updated dataset. This platform aggregates various sources of talent data into a single point of analysis, allowing clients to gain global visibility into talent pools, identify relevant candidates quickly, and track talent movement trends at a market or competitor level. Unlike traditional CRM or Applicant Tracking Systems, Qneiform's service enables organizations to benchmark teams, identify talent gaps, forecast departures, and develop succession plans. This approach provides objective metrics about an organization's hiring needs and its ability to attract, retain, and develop employees. The business serves clients such as hedge funds, private equity firms, investment banks, and recruitment firms, counting some of the world's most profitable hedge funds and leading investment banks among its customers.

Qneiform's business model is centered on providing access to its talent intelligence platform. The company has secured significant funding to fuel its growth, including a €750k pre-seed round in February 2024 and a €3M seed round in March 2025. These investments, led by firms like PROfounders Capital and Day1 Capital, are intended to support further development of the platform's data models, expansion into new industry verticals beyond finance, and geographic growth. The company's name is a creative spelling of 'Cuneiform,' the ancient writing system used to create the world's oldest known map, reflecting its mission to empower modern-day cartographers of the talent landscape.
