Data Quality

Data: Medium

Humanly is a fast-growing (~49% YoY) AI-native talent intelligence platform with a strong competitive moat built on extensive data (600M+ candidate profiles) and integrations.

Last updated: March 10, 2026

Bull (32%)+300%

Humanly successfully expands its conversational AI platform beyond high-volume, entry-level roles, capturing significant market share from incumbents like SmartRecruiters and Greenhouse. Strategic acquisitions are successfully integrated, leading to a comprehensive solution. Revenue grows to $60M+ by 2028, justifying a $400M+ valuation at 6-7x revenue, leading to a 300% upside.

Base (41%)+50%

Humanly maintains its strong position in high-volume, entry-level hiring, growing steadily at 30-40% YoY. It continues to compete effectively against Workday's Paradox offering and other specialized AI recruiting tools. Revenue reaches $25M by 2028, leading to an acquisition or IPO at a $150M valuation, representing a 50% upside.

Bear (27%)-60%

Dominant HR incumbents like Workday (with Paradox) and SAP SuccessFactors integrate advanced conversational AI features, commoditizing Humanly's core offering. Growth slows significantly, and the company struggles to expand beyond its niche. A down round or distressed acquisition at $40M wipes out most common stock value due to the $24M in liquidation preferences.

Preference Stack Risk

high

Investors hold $24M in liquidation preferences ahead of common stock. In an exit at or below $100M, employees with common stock may see their returns significantly reduced or wiped out.

Dilution Risk

moderate

As a Series B company, Humanly will likely require 1-2 more funding rounds, which will lead to further dilution for existing equity holders.

Secondary Liquidity

none

There is no indication of an active secondary market or tender offers for Humanly's shares.

Questions to Ask at the Interview

Strategic questions based on Humanly's data — designed to show you've done your homework.

  • 1

    “Workday's acquisition of Paradox significantly changes the competitive landscape for AI interviewing. How is Humanly adapting its product roadmap and go-to-market strategy to compete with a well-resourced incumbent like Workday in this space?”

  • 2

    “Humanly has made several acquisitions recently. What are the key metrics and integration milestones the leadership team is focused on to ensure these acquisitions successfully contribute to the overall platform and revenue growth?”

  • 3

    “Given the Series B funding and the current market conditions, what is the company's anticipated timeline and strategy for a future liquidity event (e.g., IPO or acquisition), and how does the equity plan for employees align with that vision?”
