Less than two years ago, we announced we were building an ATS in response to massive customer demand. Nine months later, we expanded the Gem platform with AI agents, starting with AI Sourcing and quickly followed by AI Application Review, to help recruiters actually do more with less. Combined with our market-leading products for sourcing, CRM, scheduling, and analytics, these new products enabled Gem to become the only AI-first all-in-one recruiting platform.
The response has been incredible and beyond what we expected. Customers aren't just adopting Gem — they're transforming how they recruit. From startups to enterprise organizations, talent teams are choosing AI-first recruiting over fragmented point solutions, and the results speak for themselves.
If you’ve already seen the buzz on LinkedIn and are excited to book a custom demo, you can do so here.
If you’re an early-stage company, we’ve built the industry’s most generous startup program:
Startups under 30 employees can get Gem for 6 months free
Startups under 100 employees can get 50% off in year 1

The interest in AI-first all-in-one is undeniable
Across every metric — from customer adoption to actual hiring outcomes — we're seeing growth that validates what we've believed all along: the future of recruiting is AI-first.
Gem ATS’ momentum in the past 1.5 years:
Nearly 500 customers are using Gem ATS
11x growth in revenue from ATS customers
28x growth in monthly interviews scheduled
11x growth in monthly hires
15x growth in customers using Gem’s AI agents for sourcing and application review
12 enterprise customers signed to migrate to Gem ATS in the next ~6-12 months, including some of the most highly valued and fastest-growing companies in the world
The market is choosing AI-first recruiting, and Gem is leading that transformation.
What customers are saying about Gem
The customer feedback has been incredible. We're seeing amazing momentum from high-growth startups to enterprise organizations. Here's what some of Gem customers have had to say:
The decision was obvious
Switching actually works
Easy meets effective
There's something poetic about this. We help our customers consolidate their tech stack, and Gem lets us practice what we preach. We've cut our recruiting tool costs by 66% and streamlined our operations significantly. Our team is more productive than ever. It's exactly the kind of consolidation story we tell our own customers about.

Why teams are choosing Gem’s AI-first all-in-one platform
After thousands of conversations with customers, it became clear that recruiting teams need more than just another ATS with AI features bolted on. They need a platform built AI-first from the ground up. What sets Gem apart is that we believe the future of recruiting is AI-first, and if you want an AI-first all-in-one, Gem is the only one offering that. Any ATS can help you manage your interview process, but Gem also helps you get the absolute best candidates into your funnel with market-leading AI Sourcing and AI Application Review agents.
AI Sourcing agents replace expensive seats on sourcing platforms, intelligently mining hundreds of millions of profiles to find candidates that actually match your requirements. In addition to finding better candidates, you also get major savings from consolidating sources of talent and expensive licenses, which no one else on the market can offer alongside their ATS and CRM. Teams are cutting their recruiting technology costs by 30-50% while actually improving their results.
With recruiters now handling nearly three times as many applications as they did in 2021, AI Application Review agents are helping teams manage this flood of candidates. They understand natural language — you can literally feed them your hiring manager intake document and they'll rank candidates accordingly, processing thousands of applications in minutes instead of hours.
But here's what makes Gem AI truly powerful: because all your recruiting data lives in one platform, Gem AI has complete candidate context across the entire journey. It knows who you've spoken to, who's applied before, and how those interactions went. This means smarter recommendations, better personalization, and no duplicate outreach.
Your ATS should never limit you, and Gem is designed to scale with you. We’ve built out robust workflow automations, custom stages for each job, and advanced filters that efficiently manage high volumes of candidates. The Gem platform already handles the largest databases of candidate records, and our experienced support teams specialize in supporting enterprise customers like Zillow, Asana, DoorDash, and CarMax.
Investing to serve our growing customer base for years to come
We've built Gem from a position of financial strength that allows us to invest aggressively in our customers' success. With $150M raised from top VCs and multiple years of runway, we're able to focus entirely on customers and product innovation rather than fundraising or cost-cutting. That financial strength translates directly into product velocity. We've grown our engineering team by 50% since the beginning of the year, with plans for 80% growth by year-end. This means faster innovation and better support for our customers.
What's next
The future is AI. Gem is the only AI-first all-in-one recruiting platform. Customers are making the switch from Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, and they're seeing real results. And we're just getting started.
We’re continuing to invest in the Gem platform to expand its capabilities to better serve our customers’ needs. Our roadmap includes:
Talent Insights for labor market research and informed recruiting decisions.
Enhancements to AI Sourcing agents with improved performance and match rates.
AI rediscovery agents to automatically surface qualified talent from your CRM & ATS.
