Founded in December 2022 and headquartered in Tokyo, CAPER builds and operates OpenSeek, an AI recruiting platform optimized for mid-career hiring. The product uses large-language-model technology to search across more than 15 open data sources, learn each client’s hiring preferences, and recommend when and how to contact potential candidates via social media or direct channels. OpenSeek handles candidate discovery, one-to-one outreach and long-term nurturing, replicating the work of experienced recruiters. The service is already deployed at 20+ companies ranging from seed-stage startups to enterprises with over 5,000 employees, delivering up to 10× higher interview conversion rates and rapid hires for hard-to-fill roles such as senior engineers and marketing leaders. CAPER’s mission is to let AI take over routine recruiting so humans can focus on judgment and relationship building. Proceeds from its latest funding will accelerate product development and expand the company’s engineering and business teams.
