Overview

HelloSky (formerly Skyminyr) offers a next-generation, AI- and data-science-driven talent intelligence platform engineered specifically for high-stakes executive search. The product consolidates human capital, company, talent, and investor data into a single platform and uses proprietary talent graphs, advanced executive competency smart tags, relationship intelligence, and connection pathing to surface exact-fit candidates. HelloSky also provides dynamic market mapping, real-time tracking, and its SmartRank™ technology to help recruiters identify and evaluate leadership talent without multiple disparate subscriptions. Several fast-growing executive search firms and enterprise deployments — including Bespoke Partners, Caldwell Partners, Eastward Partners, NU Advisory Partners, and On Partners — have adopted the platform. The company has expanded its management team with Hugh Burnham as EVP, Sales and Marketing and Mike Kelch as VP of Sales to accelerate go-to-market. HelloSky has surpassed $1 million in ARR and expects to reach profitability by Q4 2025. Skyminyr offers an AI-powered platform that delivers human capital intelligence by combining behavioral analytics, sector mapping and relationship intelligence. The company spent three years in development mode with a team of data scientists applying AI-driven predictive algorithms to large human-capital datasets correlated to organizational success. Its platform benchmarks a company against peers, serves as an early warning system for looming talent issues, and provides talent-flow insights to predict movements, monitor retention risk and increase employee engagement. Skyminyr is led by CEO Alex Bates and the founding team includes John Mutch and Rupert Minnett. The company has formed an advisory board that includes Brendan Castle, Steve Cox, Matthew Guss, Betsy Wouldenberg and Jim Bethmann. Skyminyr is based in San Diego and recently raised $2.5M in Seed funding to accelerate development and rollout of its platform.
