  Founded in 2023 by former Herefish co-founders Travis Arnold and Kevin Jones alongside Chris Dues, Boostie provides recruiting teams with a workflow engine that automates candidate rediscovery, engagement campaigns, e-commerce-style job applications, and AI-driven applicant insights. The platform integrates directly with an employer’s ATS and web analytics to surface qualified candidates, detect fraudulent or ineligible applicants, and streamline the application flow. Early customers have seen measurable results, including identifying an average of 28.7% bots or ineligible applicants, generating 36% of new applicants from existing data, reducing the application process to 63.7 seconds, and achieving a 91.52% completion rate. Boostie’s vision is to help talent teams “own” their funnels instead of relying on external job boards. With its new capital, the company is expanding its engineering staff and accelerating its product roadmap across workflows, candidate engagement, candidate conversion, and web analytics while ramping up sales and marketing. Although specific revenue or user counts were not disclosed, the platform has “quickly gained adoption” among both staffing firms and in-house TA departments. The company is headquartered in Lafayette, Colorado.

  Participated · Seed · Sep 2025

  RefAssured delivers a 360-degree, at-a-glance scorecard that helps staffing agencies determine whether a candidate can do a job and how well they can do it. The system has already processed millions of references, capturing 20 million structured data points on soft skills, attributes, team abilities, and performance indicators. Customers such as Vaco, Kelly Services (SETT), Soliant, LRS, Ingenovis Health, Triage and Fusion Medical Staffing use the product to combat candidate fraud, speed placements and grow their pipelines; the company currently boasts a 100 % customer referenceability score. Financially disciplined management has brought the company to cash-flow breakeven just two years after emerging from stealth. With the fresh capital, RefAssured plans to expand hiring across all departments and accelerate a roadmap that includes post-hire performance evaluations, advanced identity verification, universal candidate profiles, and job-to-match templates. The company positions its growing dataset as the “back of a baseball card” for talent performance, intending to power more intelligent and trustworthy AI-driven hiring decisions.
