When a US company raises a Series A, they will hire 15-30 people in the next six months — and the leadership roles get filled fast. The recruiting firm that gets in front of them in the first two weeks usually wins the retainer. By the time the role hits LinkedIn, it's already too late.
Fundz tells you which US companies just got funded — and gives you the contacts, the context, and the outreach to win the engagement before competing search firms even know it exists.
The dedicated surface inside Fundz where staffing firms live. Every newly-funded US company is grouped at the org level and ranked by hiring intent — so you spend zero time deciding who to call next.

Every funded org gets an AI analyst note + probability distribution for next funding / exec hire / contract / acquisition — backtested over years of proprietary data.
ZoomInfo gives you contacts. Crunchbase gives you funding. LinkedIn shows job posts. Apollo enriches. Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, SmartRecruiters and Recruitee data each live in their own silo. Each piece costs you a separate subscription — and none of them fuse the signals into one daily action list.
Fundz is the only platform combining real-time funding & exec signals, direct ingestion from 6 ATS / job-board systems (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee), and Claude-powered synthesis — purpose-built for the depth, breadth, and quality recruiting firms need.
One subscription. One workflow. One daily briefing that tells you who, why, when, what to send, and what to hand your client.
Org-grouped intent feed ranks every funded company by a composite score that fuses funding, hiring velocity, exec change, employee sentiment, and ICP fit.
Full signal envelope: every active signal, recent funding, exec changes, employee sentiment trend, all open roles, and the drivers behind the intent score.
Comp benchmark places the posting against peer percentiles in our own dataset — same role, same size bucket, same industry. p25/p50/p75 markers on every role.
Suggested contacts surface the top decision-makers per org, scored against your buyer profile. Names, titles, fit ranking — already enriched, ready to outreach.
ML predictions surface probability of next funding, next exec hire, acquisition, or new contracts — with a timeframe estimate so you know when to lean in.
One-click Engage DM drafter (Strategic). Claude writes a subject and a tight 60-110 word DM that opens with the specific signal — no filler, no "hope this finds you well."
One-page client-ready intel brief on any role — funding context, hiring history, competitive landscape. Print or save as PDF and put it in front of your client.
Save your filter combinations as Mandates. Fundz runs them every Monday at 7am ET and emails the new matches — pre-scored against your ICP.
Track strategic accounts. The day a vacancy on your watchlist crosses 45 / 60 / 90 / 120 days open, you get a real-time email — your recovery moment.
Whether you run a retained executive search firm, a contingent agency, an RPO operation, or a sector-specialized boutique — your customers all share one thing: they grow fast, hire fast, and pick partners fast. Fundz puts you first in line.
C-suite and VP-level retained search. Funded companies restructure leadership the moment the round closes — but only if you reach them before the larger firms do.
Contingent placements across engineering, sales, finance, and ops. Win the engagement before the role hits LinkedIn — and get paid before another agency does.
Recruitment Process Outsourcing for high-growth startups. Fundz delivers the pipeline of newly-funded companies you should be embedded in next.
Healthtech, fintech, defense, climate, AI — recruiters with deep vertical expertise. Catch funded companies in your sector the day the round closes, not the week the post goes live.
10-50 person firms competing against larger players. Fundz gives you the same primary-source signal advantage the bulge-bracket search firms get from internal research teams.
Advisory and fractional CHRO firms. Fundz surfaces companies that just hit the inflection point where they need leadership infrastructure built fast.
When a company raises funding, you have about two weeks to be the firm they call. After that, they've already started searching through someone else.
You're chasing yesterday's news.
You're first in line, every time.
Fundz combines four real-time signals to surface the companies most likely to need a recruiting partner — right now.
Every Series A-C triggers 15-30 hires in the next 6 months. We surface the round directly from SEC Form D filings — typically 2-3 weeks before TechCrunch or Crunchbase. That's your window.
When a company's open roles jump 300% in a week, they're building a team fast. Fundz cross-references job posts with funding events to identify companies actively scaling.
A new VP of Engineering means a new engineering team. A new CFO means new finance ops. Every C-suite or VP change is a structural reset that creates immediate staffing demand.
M&A creates immediate restructuring needs. New office openings signal regional team builds. We catch both — and tell you who to talk to before the headcount budget is allocated.
Fundz does the entire prospecting workflow for you. You wake up to a curated list of high-intent companies, decision-maker contacts, and outreach already in motion.
A company in your ICP raises funding, hires a new exec, or spikes in hiring velocity. Fundz catches it the day it happens.
FundzIQ analyzes the signal against your specific ICP — industry, size, geography, role types — and scores it for fit and urgency.
Decision-maker emails and LinkedIn profiles delivered with the signal. No separate enrichment subscription needed.
Warm LinkedIn outreach triggers automatically — personalized messages to your network, paused on reply, escalated to you when interest is detected.
Built into every Fundz Pro plan. No add-ons, no upsells, no separate data subscriptions.
An AI analyst that works overnight on your watchlist. Each morning you get a curated brief with the companies you should reach out to today, ranked and explained.
Up to 25 companies a day, scored against YOUR ICP. Fundz learns which companies you close and gets smarter every week.
Event-triggered warm LinkedIn messages powered by Fundz intelligence. Auto-pause on reply. Built-in safety limits to protect your network.
CEO, COO, Head of People, Head of Engineering — whoever owns the hiring decision is delivered with every signal.
See which companies just spiked their headcount or open requisitions. The clearest possible buying signal for staffing services.
One-click intelligence brief on any company: their funding history, recent leadership changes, growth pattern, and what their next 6 months look like.
Funding + hiring + exec change in the same week = active scaling. Fundz correlates signals automatically and surfaces the highest-intent companies first.
HubSpot and Salesforce integrations. CSV export for any other system. Keep your existing workflow — just add intelligence.
Monitor up to 100 strategic accounts. Get notified the moment any of them takes a hiring action — not weeks later.
Spot companies with declining employee satisfaction — they're about to lose people and need your help filling roles. Declining WorkVibz culture scores predict attrition before it happens.
Why Fundz is the only tool that gives recruiting firm owners both the real-time event intelligence and the outreach automation to be the first firm growing companies hear from.
He built his outreach engine around the Fundz daily brief. Every morning, Fundz surfaces the US companies that just raised funding and are about to scale leadership and senior headcount — long before the roles ever hit LinkedIn or job boards. Engage fires the same day, positioning his firm while the company is still putting their hiring plan together.
The result: he's stopped manual prospecting entirely. His outbound pipeline now runs on Engage, and he consistently reaches funded companies weeks before they begin a formal search — putting him in front of the decision-maker before any other recruiting firm even knows the opportunity exists. He cited the standard differentiators that brought him to Fundz: real-time funding signals from primary sources (not press releases), decision-maker contacts delivered with each event, hiring-velocity cross-referencing to confirm hiring intent, predictive intelligence on which companies are about to make leadership changes, and warm Engage outreach so he doesn't have to spam — all in one workflow.
Why Fundz vs. anything else
But they're all using the same data. Fundz detects hiring signals from funding rounds, executive departures, and WorkVibz culture shifts minutes after they happen — giving you a head start measured in days, not hours.
10 years of structured signals. 15+ direct sources. 200,000+ companies. The data is the moat — and no DIY AI agent can replicate it.
LinkedIn Recruiter shows you who's open to work. Fundz shows you which companies are ABOUT to need people — before the job posting goes live. That's a 2-3 week head start on every other recruiter.
Google Alerts tells you "Company raised funding." Fundz tells you "Company raised $15M Series B, hiring velocity suggests 15-30 new roles in next 6 months, culture score declining suggests attrition, 3 of your placed candidates are there, proactive retention outreach ready." Same company, completely different intelligence.
For a recruiting firm, one new placement from a Fundz signal pays for the platform many times over.

For growing recruiting firms
For recruiting teams that want every edge
You didn't start a recruiting firm to spend half your week on cold prospecting. Fundz handles the top of the funnel so you can focus on what actually grows the business.
Stop spending 10+ hours a week researching companies and hunting contacts. Wake up to a daily list — pre-scored, pre-enriched, pre-contacted.
Fundz delivers fresh leads every single day. No more pipeline droughts. No more "where will next month's deals come from?"
Your recruiters should be on calls with qualified prospects, not building lists. Fundz turns sourcing into a non-issue so your team can close engagements.
Be the first recruiting firm to reach a funded company. Get the meeting before they've narrowed it down to 3 search firms. Win the strategic accounts your competitors only hear about after the deal is done.
A solo founder can run prospecting at the volume of a 5-person research team. Fundz scales your top-of-funnel capacity without adding salaries.
When you finally talk to a prospect, you already know their funding history, their recent exec hires, and their growth trajectory. You sound like a strategic partner, not a vendor.
Hiring Intel is the dedicated daily surface inside Fundz built for staffing firms. Instead of showing you postings (a job board), it shows you ORGS — every newly-funded US company, ranked by composite hiring intent that fuses funding, hiring velocity, exec change, employee sentiment, and ICP fit. From there, every question a recruiter asks daily — Why this org? Who do I call? What's a fair fee? What do I send? What do I hand my client? — is answered in one click. No other tool combines all of these data layers in a single workflow.
Both — and RPO and boutique sector specialists too. The common factor is being early to a hiring decision at a funded company. Retained-search customers tell us the predictive layer (which companies are about to replace a CMO/COO/CFO) is the highest-leverage feature. Contingent customers tell us it's the cross-signal scoring that surfaces the highest-intent accounts before the role hits LinkedIn. Different placement economics, same intelligence.
Yes — and arguably more. Retained search lives or dies on getting in front of the search committee at the right moment. A funded company restructuring leadership is your highest-intent target. Fundz catches that intent the day funding closes, so you're calling before they've started shopping search firms.
No. Fundz uses your ICP profile (industry, size, geography) to surface new companies daily that you'd never have found on your own. You can also add your own watchlist of strategic accounts to track in parallel.
Engage is event-triggered, not blast-based. It only fires when a real signal qualifies a company for outreach (e.g., they just raised). Messages reference the actual event and leverage your existing LinkedIn connections, so the recipient sees a warm, relevant message — not a generic pitch.
Yes. Pro is per-seat. Strategic includes 2 seats and you can add more. Each seat has their own ICP, lead feed, and Engage — so a 5-person recruiting team gets 5 personalized pipelines.
Our funding signals come from SEC Form D filings, not press releases. They're typically 2-3 weeks ahead of TechCrunch and Crunchbase. Every signal is auditable to its source filing. We're showing you the same data the institutional investors use.
Stop chasing job posts. Be first in the inbox of every newly-funded company in your sector.
