Hubert, a Stockholm-based AI-first hiring platform, announced on September 1, 2025, a €2.5 million seed funding round led by Spintop Ventures, with participation from Bonnier-linked investors Jakob Tolleryd, Peder Bonnier, and Joen Bonnier. The funding will fuel Hubert’s product innovation as it targets over 400% revenue growth in 2025 while maintaining profitability, transforming high-volume recruitment with proprietary AI technology.
Hubert’s proprietary AI conducts structured screening interviews 24/7, streamlining frontline and operational hiring for high-volume employers. The platform reduces recruiter screening time by up to 80%, improves hire quality by up to 5x, and ensures fairer evaluations through bias-mitigation design. “Hubert is setting a new global standard for fair, data-driven hiring,” said Peter Carlsson, Partner at Spintop Ventures. With the global HR tech market projected to grow at a 10% CAGR through 2030, Hubert’s scalable solution addresses the increasing pressure on talent acquisition teams.
Hubert’s platform offers:
Trusted by industry leaders like Securitas, Coop, and ManpowerGroup, Hubert integrates with ATS providers like Teamtailor and Workable, ensuring seamless workflows across retail, logistics, hospitality, and BPO sectors.
The €2.5M investment will accelerate Hubert’s product roadmap, focusing on enhancing its AI screening agents and expanding its customer base. “This investment gives us the funds to accelerate our product roadmap and seize the opportunity ahead,” said Fredrik Östgren, CEO and Co-Founder. Hubert’s sustained profitability and 400% growth target position it to capitalize on the rising demand for ethical, automated hiring solutions, with 60% of employers prioritizing AI-driven recruitment tools by 2026, per industry forecasts.
While Hubert’s AI-driven approach promises efficiency, concerns remain about over-reliance on automated screening potentially overlooking nuanced candidate qualities, as noted in broader HR tech critiques. Additionally, the platform’s focus on high-volume roles may limit its applicability to specialized hiring, a gap competitors like Workable or Greenhouse could exploit. However, Hubert’s integration with multiple ATS providers and its 9/10 candidate experience rating mitigate some of these concerns, setting a strong foundation for scalability.
Hubert is a recruitment technology company leveraging proprietary AI to automate high-volume hiring. Its platform delivers faster, fairer, and data-driven hiring processes, serving global leaders in retail, logistics, and hospitality.
