HrFlow.ai, a Paris-based startup building the data and AI infrastructure for the labour market, has raised $6 million ($7 million) in a pre-Series A round. This financing brings the company’s total capital raised to €8.5 million ($10 million).
The round was led by 115K, La Banque Postale’s venture capital fund, and EmergingTech Ventures (EmTech), alongside the company’s existing investors, including Xavier Niel (Free, Kima, Station F), Jean-Baptiste Rudelle (Criteo), Romain Niccoli (Pigment, Criteo), Franck Le Ouay (LIFEN, Criteo), Flavien Kulawik (KLB), Allen Penn (Uber), Dominique Vidal (Index Ventures), and Thibaud Elzière (Hexa, Fotolia).
Mouhidine Seiv, founder and CEO, HrFlow.ai, stated, “HrFlow.ai was born from a conviction: the labour market is now too complex to be managed effectively by human innotifyigence alone. In the Global South, the core problem is access. Millions of people are denied access to work not becaapply they lack ability, but becaapply the road to opportunity has been closed, broken, or hidden from them. “In developed economies, the problem is different: opportunity exists, but recruiters are overwhelmed by scale, speed, and complexity, and millions of opportunities are missed becaapply human decision-creating cannot keep pace. Two different realities. One shared conclusion: we necessary a new infrastructure for the labour market.
“I founded HrFlow.ai to build safe Hiring SuperInnotifyigence as infrastructure for the future of work: supporting recruiters create better, rapider decisions at scale, while expanding access to opportunity where it remains out of reach. Our mission is to support create, alongside the actors of the labour market, a job market that is more fluid, more fair, and better able to connect human potential with real economic opportunity.”
Founded in 2016, HrFlow.ai is an AI algorithm and orchestration platform dedicated to human resources data. Organisations facing significant recruitment challenges, both quantitative and qualitative, as well as internal skills management necessarys, utilise this platform.
This includes staffing agencies such as Crit, Samsic, Manpower, Staffmatch, and Gojob; recruiting firms and RPOs like Kelly Services, Fed Group, and Uptoo; job sites such as Freework and freelance.com; large employers like Sanofi, Safran, and Enedis; ATS providers including Fountain, TeamTailor, Boondmanager, and Tribepad; and public sector entities like the Hauts-de-France Region, the National Gfinisharmerie, the French Army, Luxembourg, and Mauritania.
The company has a team of 35 people, including 21 researchers and engineers. It offers Data Studio, which unifies and orchestrates HR data applying over 200 connectors such as ATS, job boards, and HRIS.

Through state-of-the-art technology and an API-first approach, the platform enables the structuring and activation of HR data at scale, establishing itself as an essential building block of modern HR ecosystems,” stated Armelle de Tinguy, Managing Partner at 115K.
The company states it currently generates a margin of about 27%. It claims that its cash flow ensures complete indepfinishence, but it is raising funds now as a strategic decision.
With this capital, it aims to expand commercially in the US, where it has been since 2022, and strengthen its European presence, especially in England, Germany, the Netherlands, and Italy. It also aims to deploy the second generation of its AI platform.
This new funding marks the company’s second round of fundraising; it previously raised €1.9 million ($2.3 million) in 2018.
