Carv Acquires Recrubo to Shape the Future of Recruiting

Carv, a leader in AI recruitment technology, announced today the acquisition of Recrubo, an innovative conversational AI platform for recruitment. The acquisition and the subsequent launch of Carv’s comprehensive AI recruitment platform marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of AI in talent acquisition. In its new configuration, Carv enables recruiters to delegate all tasks to AI that distract them from building human connections.

Over the course of 2024 Carv grew over 10x with its ‘zero admin’ platform, onboarding thousands of recruiters and offloading them from administrative tasks. Emerging as one of the dominant players in the applied AI for recruitment space, the company now has its sights set on becoming the world’s top AI platform for recruiters. With the acquisition of Recrubo, the team takes a big leap towards realizing that goal.

“Recruitment is a continuous cycle of screening and evaluating candidates. This process is riddled with tasks that keep recruiters from doing what they do best; connecting with humans. ” Says Carv co-founder Matthijs Metzemaekers. “With the addition of Recrubo’s conversational AI to our platform, we open up an entirely new paradigm of recruiter-AI collaboration. You can now assign admin tasks to AI and let it take over 90% of the communication with your incoming applicants or your existing talent pool.”

“The recruitment technology market is rapidly evolving with AI point solutions popping up left and right. AI performance often suffers from the disconnectivity of these tools”. Says Carv co-founder Barend Raaff. “With Carv we now offer one suite of solutions integrated into your current workflow to make AI really work for recruiters.”

Carv is servicing a broad group of clients, from small recruiting agencies to dominant players such as Manpower Group, DHL, G4S and Carrefour. Its groundbreaking capabilities promise to redefine recruitment for companies at all stages of their AI journey—from those just starting out, to organizations looking to take their AI adoption to the next level.

“For the longest time, Recruitment teams have faced challenges in creating a seamless hiring journey from first engagement to hire. By combining Recrubo’s conversational AI with Carv’s recruitment AI capabilities, we can now cover the entire recruitment journey and deliver a comprehensive AI experience that turns our vision into reality. I’m extremely excited about what’s ahead.” – Says Niels Tukker, Founder of Recrubo.

Looking ahead, Carv is poised to continue innovating and expanding its AI capabilities to further streamline administrative tasks, increase efficiency, and free recruiters to focus on meaningful human connections.
