Beamery

Beamery is a British human resources software company headquartered in London that develops an artificial intelligence-based platform for recruitment, talent management, workforce planning and employee development. The company was founded in 2013 under the name Seed.Jobs by brothers Abakar and Sultan Saidov together with Michael Paterson, and its first product applied the customer relationship management model to recruiting, letting employers identify prospective candidates, track interactions and maintain relationships before a formal application, with machine learning used to gauge candidate interest and match people to roles.

The current platform is organized into four areas: a data layer that consolidates fragmented data on skills, roles, people and the external market into a single source of truth; a Workforce Intelligence suite for scenario modelling, identifying talent risks and balancing automation, reskilling and hiring; an agentic AI assistant marketed as "Ray," positioned as an embedded AI talent advisor that produces context-aware recommendations; and an execution suite covering AI-assisted sourcing, matching and candidate engagement integrated with existing HR systems. Beamery integrates with HR systems including Workday and SAP, and has extended into internal mobility and skills-based development following its 2022 acquisition of Flux, whose technology underpinned the Beamery Grow product. Earlier product milestones included a "Universal Skills Platform" for assessing current and potential workforce skills and ethical-AI features intended to reduce bias in candidate selection.

The company reached a valuation of over $1 billion with its December 2022 Series D round and subsequently went through two restructurings, cutting roughly 12% of staff in January 2023 and about 25% in November 2023. Leadership changed repeatedly from 2025: Sultan Saidov was announced as CEO in April 2025 with Abakar Saidov moving to executive chairman, and Has Dosanjh became CEO later that year.
