Metaview Raises $7 Million in Series A Funding

AI startup Metaview has raised $7 million in Series A funding led by Plural. The latest funding will be used to accelerate its rapid growth.

Metaview, a provider of an AI note-taking tool tailored for the hiring process, has secured $7 million in Series A funding. Plural led the round, with contributions from investors including Zach Coelius, Vertex Ventures US, Seedcamp, and Village Global, along with participation from notable angels such as Barney Hussey-Yeo (Cleo), Kyle Parrish (Figma), and several customers. This funding round brings its total raised capital to $14 million.

Founders, executives, hiring managers, and recruiters often express frustration with the hiring process. Until recently, capturing and interpreting the most crucial data in the hiring process has been challenging. The unstructured, ambient data from human-to-human interactions, such as interviews, debriefs, calibration meetings, and offer calls, holds significant importance. These interactions are where the hiring process truly happens. This understanding drives the development of Metaview.

In the recent press release, Siadhal Magos, CEO at Metaview shared: At Metaview, we believe AI is going to do so much more than just compliment existing workflows. It’s going to become the foundation upon which critical business workflows will be re-imagined. And no business workflow is as critical or as in need of re-imagination as hiring. We could not be more honored to be charting the course and setting the pace for how AI is leveraged in hiring. To do this, we are growing our team with builders of all stripes across Product and Engineering, Marketing, and Sales.”

Khaled Helioui, Partner at Plural said: “Hiring decisions are critical to the success of any business, but for decades this crucial step has been ignored by technology. Siadhal and Shahriar, having honed their skills at Uber and Palantir, notorious for setting new standards of excellence in terms of recruiting, are uniquely positioned to change this dynamic. Metaview is making recruitment decisions better, faster, and more objective. In doing so, it’s creating improved outcomes and contributing to more equitable workplaces by removing some of the pervasive biases that clog most hiring processes.”

Metaview will use the funding to accelerate its product development and grow the team.
