Bellevue, Wash.-based Humanly, a startup that makes AI-powered interviewing tools for employers, announced it has acquired Anthill, a platform that uses AI to help companies connect with and support frontline employees.
It’s the latest acquisition for Humanly, which scooped up three recruiting technology companies last year — Sprockets, Qualifi, and HourWork.
Humanly said Tuesday that the Anthill acquisition adds “post-hire engagement capabilities” to its offerings, which include helping organizations attract, screen, and interview job candidates.
Humanly will continue operating the Anthill platform as it explores how to integrate its capabilities into the broader Humanly platform. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Founded in 2018, Humanly is led by CEO Prem Kumar. The startup, ranked No. 152 on the GeekWire 200, just announced a $25 million Series B funding round last week, and has raised $52 million to date.
Founded in 2020 by Muriel Clauson Closs, Young-Jae Kim, and Laura Silvester, Chicago-based Anthill built technology designed to help frontline managers and distributed teams stay connected through messaging, feedback, and operational support. Anthill raised approximately $10 million in funding.
