Vente AI

Vente AI is an AI-powered automation platform specifically designed for recruitment agencies to streamline their business development (BD) and client acquisition. Unlike traditional candidate sourcing tools, Vente focuses on the agency-side sales process by automating the identification, analysis, and prioritization of new client leads and job openings. The platform processes data from 200+ sources monitoring 38M+ job listings monthly to help recruitment agencies identify companies most likely to need agency services. Founded in 2024 in London by Cameron Briggs (CEO), Itamar Yeshua, and Octavian Neguletu, Vente emerged from Antler's London 2024 cohort. The company was incorporated on April 6, 2024, launched on May 20, 2024, and raised £500k in pre-seed funding (November 2024) led by Antler with backing from Thomas Vose (HireAra founder) and private angels. Additional seed funding of $0.33M was announced in November 2025, bringing total funding to approximately $0.93M. The company operates from 32-38 Leman Street, Techspace Antler, London, E1 8EW with 7 employees. Key features include Spec CV automation that helps agencies build Most Placeable Candidate (MPC) lists 95% faster—recruiters can upload candidate profiles and Vente automatically generates targeted company lists showing where those candidates are most likely to be placed. The platform provides pre-analyzed leads with vacancy insights, pain-suggestive signals, and TA pain predictions benchmarked against industry averages to identify companies with acute hiring needs. Vente's value proposition centers on reducing manual BD effort by up to 90% and significantly lowering cost of sales. Early adopters reported £300k+ in additional revenue. The platform uses proprietary lead analysis, pain prediction algorithms, and hiring triggers to help agencies proactively identify opportunities before competitors. Integrations are claimed with recruitment agency CRMs including Bullhorn and Vincere (unverified), plus SourceWhale and JobAdder based on external integration pages. The platform is web-based SaaS with dedicated recruitment industry specialist onboarding and support. Pricing is not publicly disclosed on the website, though the homepage mentions a 'transparent pricing model' with a pricing calculator. Custom quotes are provided based on agency size and volume of listings tracked, emphasizing ROI rather than fixed pricing. No free trial duration or specific pricing tiers are published. It's important to note that Vente AI is distinct from corporate ATS or candidate sourcing tools—it specifically targets recruitment agencies and staffing firms for business development and client acquisition rather than internal talent acquisition teams recruiting for their own companies.
