Scoutible offers a game-based artificial intelligence platform for hiring that uses mobile games and machine learning to measure candidates’ cognitive and personality traits through gameplay. Its technology collects millions of data points to surface soft skills and talents such as grit, interpersonal skills, and cognitive aptitude. The platform then matches player attributes to the profiles of a company’s proven top performers to identify fit candidates. Scoutible is led by CEO and Founder Angela Antony and operates with a sales team of 55 people. The company raised a $5M seed round and intends to use the proceeds to scale capacity to serve more companies and help them build and grow teams. Scoutible develops science-based mobile and smartphone games designed to identify candidate strengths and match people to roles. The company works with psychologists to develop algorithms that test qualities such as risk tolerance, emotional intelligence, response to feedback, and mental processing speed. Game themes include scenarios like surviving on an island and jumping across floating lava rocks. Scoutible encourages employers to run the games with top employees to discover which personalities perform best for particular roles. CEO Angela Antony launched the company at TechCrunch Disrupt and says she has been in talks with large companies, with responses described as encouraging. Financially, Scoutible has secured $1.5 million in seed funding from Mark Cuban to build out its product.
