HelloSky, formerly known as Skyminyr, announced the close of a $5.5 million oversubscribed seed round led by Caldwell Partners, Karmel Capital, True Capital Partners, Hunt Scanlon Ventures, and angel investors from Google and Cisco Systems.
CEO Alex Bates said HelloSky is helping firms achieve better placement outcomes through AI precision. The company, which has surpassed $1 million in ARR, also expanded its leadership team, appointing Hugh Burnham as EVP of Sales and Marketing and Mike Kelch as VP of Sales.
Scott A. Scanlon, CEO of Hunt Scanlon Ventures, noted that AI-driven platforms like HelloSky will give recruiters a strategic edge. The funding will accelerate engineering and go-to-market efforts as HelloSky reshapes executive talent sourcing.
