SeekOut

SeekOut is a talent sourcing platform designed to help organizations find diverse, specialized, and hard-to-locate talent that conventional recruiting tools consistently miss. The platform aggregates over a billion professional profiles from public sources, enriched with AI-inferred skills, experience signals, and diversity attributes, giving recruiters access to a far larger and richer candidate pool than any single job board provides. The diversity sourcing capabilities are a genuine differentiator. SeekOut allows recruiters to filter for underrepresented groups, track diversity representation in sourcing pools, and set diversity targets for specific roles or hiring programs. The platform's AI anonymization features can help teams review candidates by skills and experience before viewing identity information, supporting structured review processes designed to reduce unconscious bias. For technical and specialized roles, SeekOut offers deep skill search capabilities using AI-inferred competencies derived from public contributions: GitHub activity, academic publications, conference talks, and patent filings. A backend engineer with expertise in distributed systems who has never explicitly listed that expertise on a resume can still surface in a SeekOut search based on their open source contributions. SeekOut also offers talent analytics for workforce planning, including internal talent mapping that helps organizations identify employees with skills relevant to new roles before looking externally. The Grow product extends this to career pathing and internal mobility recommendations, helping organizations retain talent by connecting employees with development opportunities. For organizations with explicit diversity hiring commitments and a need to source specialized technical talent, SeekOut provides capabilities that generalist sourcing platforms do not match.
