Humanly, a leading AI-driven hiring platform, has announced the acquisition of Sprockets, Qualifi, and HourWork, combining three category leaders to create a unified, end-to-end AI hiring solution. This strategic move positions Humanly to redefine the future of recruitment by delivering a single, intelligent system that manages every stage of the hiring lifecycle — from sourcing to retention.
The newly merged platform will empower Fortune 500 companies, mid-market organizations, and high-growth businesses to streamline their talent acquisition processes. Employers can now source, screen, interview, hire, and retain candidates seamlessly through one integrated AI-powered system.
“This news comes at a pivotal time,” said Prem Kumar, CEO and Founder of Humanly. “Employers are being flooded with applicants driven by AI-enabled applying, while still grappling with high turnover and the urgent need to scale hiring without adding headcount. By bringing these companies together, we're creating the most comprehensive AI recruiting platform on the market.”
Each acquisition strengthens Humanly’s capabilities across different stages of the hiring funnel:
-
Sprockets enhances Humanly’s platform with its hiring suite, frontline manager app, and sourcing and screening tools, enabling businesses to build stronger talent pipelines and identify the best-fit candidates efficiently.
-
Qualifi introduces automated phone and voice screening to Humanly’s conversational AI channels — which already include chat, SMS, email, and video — drastically reducing the time needed to identify top candidates from days to mere minutes.
-
HourWork expands Humanly’s reach beyond recruitment, bringing AI-driven tools for post-hire engagement. Employers can now onboard, train, and retain hourly workers more effectively, improving long-term workforce stability.
Humanly also unveiled its AI Interviewer, an innovation that allows employers to conduct instant, large-scale interviews and engage with the 95% of applicants who are often overlooked in traditional hiring processes.
Prem Kumar, who previously led the integration of LinkedIn’s data assets into Microsoft’s ecosystem, sees similar transformative potential in this initiative. He aims to build the world’s largest database of AI-interviewed candidates, reshaping how organizations connect with talent.
“This is more than just an acquisition,” Kumar emphasized. “It's a roll-up strategy designed to redefine how millions of workers are hired, placed, and retained—using AI to power every step of the journey, from the first hello to onboarding and beyond.”
