Metaview's $60M Raise: The AI That Could Replace Your Recruiter

Jan de Vries · 2026-10-01

Metaview, a London-based agentic recruiting platform, just raised $60 million in Series C funding. That's a big vote of confidence for a company that wants to automate almost every step of hiring—from sourcing candidates to making the final call. The round was led by Insight Partners, with participation from GV, Intrepid Growth Partners, Seedcamp, Vertex Ventures US, Plural, and Garuda Ventures. This comes just a year after Metaview's $32.5 million Series B, bringing total funding to $110 million. ### What Metaview Actually Does Metaview isn't just another hiring tool. It's an AI-powered system that handles the entire recruiting workflow. Think of it as a team of digital assistants that never sleep. The platform captures interviews (over 6 million so far), then uses that data to train AI agents that can source candidates, review applications, conduct screenings, and even take notes during human interviews. Unlike most AI that waits for a prompt, Metaview runs a continuous loop: it learns the role, agents act on it, each step sharpens the next, and humans make the final call. It connects to 62+ tools like Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever, and Workday, and is SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and CCPA compliant. ### The Vision: Talent Engineering Metaview's CEO Siadhal Magos puts it simply: "The best engineering teams have already moved from writing code by hand to orchestrating AI agents that do the work. Recruiting is next." The company is doubling down on its 10x Recruiting program, which teaches talent professionals what it calls "talent engineering"—the discipline of building and running AI-powered hiring systems. It's a bold bet that the future of recruiting isn't about more humans, but about humans and AI working together. ### What's Next for the $60M? Metaview has three priorities for the new capital: - Bring fillmore, its autonomous recruiting coworker, to general availability, along with new specialist agents. - Expand the team from 80 to 250 people by the end of next year, with a new office in New York alongside existing hubs in London and San Francisco. - Double down on the 10x Recruiting community and training program. The company already serves over 7,000 companies, including Deel, Affirm, Navan, and Replit. And with the recent acquisition of California-based Reval, Metaview is positioning itself as a major player in the AI recruiting space. ### Why This Matters for US Startups For US companies, Metaview's rise signals a shift in how hiring gets done. The recruiting process is generating more candidate volume than most organizations can handle. Metaview's platform brings structure and intelligence to every stage, from sourcing to screening to the final decision. As Ryan Hinkle, Managing Director at Insight Partners, says: "The result is better hiring decisions at scale, without losing the judgment that good hiring requires." If Metaview delivers, it could change how every startup builds its team. > "The recruiting process is generating more candidate volume than most organisations know how to handle. Metaview has built a platform that brings more structure and intelligence across each stage of hiring, from sourcing and screening through to the final decision." – Ryan Hinkle, Insight Partners So, is this the end of the recruiter as we know it? Not quite. But it might be the beginning of a new era where AI handles the busywork, and humans focus on what they do best: making the final call.
