Visage

What Visage does

Visage, Inc. is an enterprise recruitment automation company founded in 2016 and headquartered in the Austin, Texas metro area (Kyle, TX). The company sells AI-powered candidate sourcing and optional screening delivered directly into customers' existing Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) through either a zero-integration vendor channel (live in 1-3 days) or a full bi-directional API integration (2-4 weeks). Visage targets Fortune 100 companies and large enterprise Talent Acquisition teams that currently rely on RPO retainers or fixed-cost internal sourcing headcount, with named enterprise customers including Siemens, Dell, and Walmart, and an unnamed Fortune 100 case study replacing an RPO model with 5,000+ roles sourced annually and $3.4M in reported annual savings.

The core product is the Visage Sourcing Engine, which uses an AI sourcing agent to search 35+ global databases, qualify candidates against role criteria, and engage interested candidates with human quality assurance on every shortlist. Optional add-on modules include Human Phone Screening (trained recruiter-led structured interviews for senior roles) and an AI-Powered Interview (conversational AI conducting 15-20 minute structured multilingual interviews for high-volume roles). The platform supports native integrations with Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Greenhouse, Oracle, iCIMS, Taleo, Jobvite, SmartRecruiters, Lever, and Ashby, plus SSO via Okta, Azure AD, and OneLogin. Visage is SOC 2 Type II certified, GDPR compliant, and is explicitly positioned to fall outside NYC Local Law 144 AEDT classification and EU AI Act scrutiny through its human-in-the-loop design.

Visage operates a remote-first team of 101-250 employees across 15+ countries with sourcers spanning EMEA, APAC, and Latin America, and reports 50+ enterprise customers and 5M+ candidates sourced to date. The revenue model is transaction-based: flat fees of $365-$445 per search (volume-tiered down to $365 at 2,000+ annual searches) or $1,495 per shortlist with screening, with no success fees, retainers, or minimums and credit-back protection for mismatched candidates. In August 2025, Visage merged with Rolebot, a competing candidate-sourcing tool, and secured undisclosed funding to accelerate product integration and expansion. Total disclosed equity funding to date is approximately $10.9M, with the largest round being a $7M Series 2 in March 2021 led by First Analysis.

Revenue model

1. Per-Search Pricing: Flat fee per search delivering qualified, interested candidates for a single role. Standard delivery is 6 candidates per search. If candidates don't match requirements due to Visage error, credit is fully refunded and search restarts. Volume tiers reduce price per search as annual search volume increases.
2. Per-Shortlist Pricing (with Screening): Flat fee per shortlist delivered with screening included - either human phone screen or AI-powered interview. Provides candidates ready to interview with scored reports synced to ATS.

Core offering

Visage provides AI-powered candidate sourcing and optional screening delivered directly into enterprise Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). Its sourcing engine searches 35+ global databases, engages candidates, and delivers 5-7 qualified, interested, and optionally pre-screened profiles per shortlist through the customer's existing ATS vendor channel (no integration required) or a bi-directional API integration. Customers pay a flat fee per search or per shortlist instead of monthly RPO retainers or fixed internal sourcing headcount.

Direct peers

• SeekOut: AI-powered candidate sourcing platform serving enterprise TA teams with passive candidate search across multiple databases. Directly comparable to Visage's core sourcing product, targeting similar enterprise buyers with similar AI-augmented sourcing workflows.
• HireEZ (formerly Hiretual): AI sourcing and outbound recruitment platform that searches multiple talent pools to deliver qualified candidates. Competes head-to-head with Visage for enterprise sourcing budgets with similar ATS-integration approach.
• Eightfold AI: Talent intelligence platform using AI for sourcing, matching, and internal mobility. Targets the same Fortune 500 / enterprise TA buyer as Visage and overlaps significantly on AI-driven candidate discovery, though with a broader talent-management scope.
• Gem: Recruiting platform combining sourcing, outreach, and CRM for talent acquisition teams. Comparable enterprise go-to-market and overlapping ATS integration story, focused on outbound sourcing workflows similar to Visage.
• Cielo Talent: Global RPO and talent acquisition partner whose retainer model Visage directly positions against. Visage names Cielo as a past investor, making them both a competitive comparison and historical relationship - useful proxy for RPO economics Visage aims to displace.

Broad incumbents

• LinkedIn Talent Solutions: Dominant incumbent in professional networking with Recruiter platform serving enterprise sourcing. Competes with Visage on access to passive candidates and is increasingly integrating AI features that overlap with Visage's value proposition.
• Indeed: Large-scale job board and hiring platform with sourcing and screening tools for employers. Broad incumbent alternative to Visage, particularly for inbound and high-volume hiring flows where enterprise TA teams currently spend heavily.
• Workday Recruiting: Major ATS platform that Visage integrates with but could also compete with via native AI sourcing modules. Represents both a key distribution channel and a long-term disintermediation risk for Visage.
• Greenhouse: Enterprise ATS with structured hiring platform and growing AI capabilities. Visage's primary vendor-channel distribution partner, but also a potential competitor as ATS platforms expand sourcing functionality.

Emerging players

• Fountain: High-volume hiring automation platform with AI-driven candidate screening and workflow automation. Partial overlap with Visage's high-volume use case (AI-powered interview for hourly roles) though typically focused on frontline/workforce rather than corporate enterprise hiring.
