Furthermore, despite this being a so-called era of the death of DEI, Legardez said Maki shows far less bias than humans: “We have been audited by the state of New York, and it has been proven that our AI creates less bias than a human toward ethnicity, gender, and age, and the more data we have, the better we can calibrate and pre-train it.” Who knows, perhaps AI recruitment will lead to even more diverse workforces in the future?
Maki’s competitors include companies such as SHL, EON, Pymetrics, Saville, Recruit CRM, BrainTrust, Recruitee, Manatal, and many others.
However, Legardez says Maki is less selling traditional HR software so much as “work through our agents, automating the work of humans.”
Legardez previously built out Everoad, a digital freight-forwarder, which was acquired by Sennder.
