Alfa AI has announced a $625,000 raise in pre-seed funding at a $6 million valuation. The round was led by Fuel Ventures.
Alfa, an AI recruitment start-up, has secured over $625,000 placing them at a $6 million valuation.
The round was led by Fuel Ventures, with participation from Davie Rowe (Sixty Six & Black Green), Pierre Decote (Revolut & Golden Square), Chris Adelsbach (Outrun Ventures), and multiple other Angel Investors.
Alfa is building the world's first truly intelligent AI Recruiter. Alfa’s Agent can instantly find, screen, and connect employers with the top 1% of candidates on autopilot.
Alfa is not a replacement, but rather a co-pilot designed to automate all of the admin work of recruitment, so hiring managers can spend more time speaking to candidates about the things which really matter.
Unlike some humans, Alfa has no gender or racial bias. This massively improves DE&I by supporting underrepresented minorities. With Alfa, everybody finally gets an equal opportunity.
Alfa AI is co-founded by Alfie Whattam (Chief Executive Officer), Ed Godshaw (Chief Technology Officer), and Dr. Linda Yu, PhD (Chief Research Officer).
Alfie Whattam, CEO of Alfa, said: “Recruiting is broken. It's a slow and manual process, with extremely expensive hiring fees, and hundreds of unsuitable applications. Hiring managers are frustrated, and candidates are burnt out applying to job advert after job advert and then never hearing back. That’s why we have built Alfa. Our AI Agent is capable of millions of calls simultaneously, in any language, at 97% lower cost than a human.”
Mark Pearson, founder of Fuel Ventures commented: “At Fuel Ventures, we back founders who are solving real-world problems with cutting-edge technology, and Alfa is doing exactly that. Recruitment is long overdue for disruption, and Alfa’s AI-driven approach has the potential to revolutionise how businesses find and hire top talent. We’re excited to support Alfie and the team as they build the future of AI-powered hiring.”
