Finlay

Finlay is a recruiting provider that combines human recruiters with AI agents to fill technology and go-to-market roles for fast-growing companies. Clients define the roles and candidate qualities they are hiring for, and Finlay handles sourcing, outreach, and screening, delivering vetted and interested candidates that are ready to interview. Outputs are presented as ranked shortlists with structured notes and stated trade-offs.

The service is delivered through a Slack co-pilot, where client teams open roles, review candidates, and give feedback without an additional dashboard. Behind that interface, Finlay operates its own platform for sourcing, scoring, outreach, voice screening, and scheduling coordination, with multiple agents handling different steps of the process. For clients with more developed internal tooling, Finlay offers integrations with applicant tracking systems and, in early access, is exploring agent-to-agent workflows in which a client's internal agents would call Finlay as a recruiting layer.

The company operates under the legal entity Mamba Technologies s.r.o., with an address in the Vinohrady district of Prague, Czech Republic. Its website notes that the project was carried out with financial support from the Technologická inkubace (Technology Incubation) programme.

Business model

Finlay sells recruiting as an embedded service on predictable contracts rather than per-hire success fees, positioning itself against traditional agency pricing of 20-25% success fees per hire. One embedded team runs the process from sourcing through offer.

Contract-based recruiting engagements without success fees, presented as predictable rather than variable cost compared with percentage-of-salary agency fees.
