Pitchme Corp Limited secures £1.3m seed funding for AI talent marketplace

London-based recruitment platform Pitchme Corp Limited has raised £1.3m in a seed funding round. The company operates an AI-driven talent marketplace designed to connect candidates with employers at startups and SMEs by focusing on verified skill sets rather than traditional CV metrics.

Founded in 2017, Pitchme Corp Limited provides tools for hiring teams to automate talent discovery and refine candidate databases. The platform uses machine learning algorithms to measure individual skills and pitch candidates to relevant roles, aiming to reduce the time and effort required for manual sourcing. Its software integrates with existing Applicant Tracking Systems to provide data intelligence and talent insights.

The latest £1.3m investment follows a series of previous funding injections for the London firm. Documentation filed in May shows the allotment of shares took place in April. This round follows a £300k raise in January and a larger £3m round completed in December 2022. Earlier funding history includes a £237.7k raise in December 2021, two rounds in November 2020 totaling approximately £131k, and a £273.7k round in October 2020. The company also secured £110.8k in May 2019, £699.9k in November 2018, and £143.4k in February 2018.

Financial records for the year ending 30 November 2024 show the company employed seven people at that time. Current LinkedIn data indicates a larger workforce of 22 employees. The company is headquartered in London and focuses on the software development and recruitment sectors.

Pitchme Corp Limited positions its technology as a solution for disorganized recruitment data. By processing and delivering talent intelligence, the platform allows recruiters to prioritize strategic tasks and react faster to niche hiring needs. Managing directors from firms such as Propeller Recruitment and Allen Recruitment have previously cited the platform's ability to maintain up-to-date candidate databases and improve sourcing speed for specialized roles.
