Hunty, a Colombian HR Tech startup, has raised $1 million following its transition from a B2C job placement platform to a no-code B2B software for automating high-volume hiring. This strategic move strengthens Hunty’s position as a global player in digitalizing large-scale recruitment processes.

Strategic Investors Fueling Expansion

The pivot to a B2B model was supported by a $1 million funding round led by Cometa Ventures, with participation from Matterscale, Newtopia, and Kalei Ventures. These investors recognize Hunty’s potential for global growth.

With these funds, Hunty aims to expand into key international markets including the U.S., Europe, and Africa, positioning itself as a global benchmark for intelligent large-scale recruitment automation.
