What CEIPAL does

CEIPAL is an AI-powered unified talent acquisition and workforce management platform that combines Applicant Tracking System (ATS), Vendor Management System (Procurewise VMS), and Workforce Management capabilities on a single cloud-native platform. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Rochester, New York, the company serves four primary market segments: general and IT staffing organizations, healthcare staffing agencies and hospitals, corporate and internal HR teams, and Global Capability Centers (GCCs). The platform serves 2,500+ clients with 200,000+ recruiters and hiring managers actively using the system across the US, UK, and India.

The product architecture centers on Ceipal AI (resume parsing via NLP, candidate-to-job matching with fit scoring, predictive analytics) and the Recruiter Assistant (workflow automation for outreach, follow-ups, and scheduling). Ceipal Healthcare extends the platform with specialized credentialing, invoicing, and workflow optimization modules underpinned by an agentic AI layer. The Voice Agent adds conversational AI for interview scheduling and candidate engagement.

The business operates on a quote-based SaaS subscription model with annual billing and per-seat licensing. Distribution combines enterprise field sales for large staffing organizations and healthcare facilities, inside sales for mid-market opportunities, and self-serve product-led growth via 'Get Started' onboarding for SMB customers. Named enterprise customers include Randstad, Tech Mahindra, VDart, Quess Corp, The Icon Group, Indotronix Avani, TASC, and Nisum. The company has raised approximately $29.75M cumulatively across funding rounds from 2018 through 2022, with the $21M Series B in June 2022 (led by Camden Partners) funding the UK and India expansion and ongoing product development.
