Jessica O'ConnorTraqCheck has secured $8m (£5.9m) in Series A funding to expand its AI-driven platform designed to automate recruitment and HR processes.
The London-based firm’s latest funding round was led by IvyCap Ventures, with participation from IIFL.
The investment will support plans to grow its UK headcount to 25 and scale its “Human Operating System” – a network of AI agents designed to streamline talent sourcing, screening and background verification.
TraqCheck’s platform aims to replace fragmented HR tools by enabling AI agents to manage workflows end-to-end, reducing manual intervention and the risk of errors, particularly in high-stakes processes such as background checks.
The company already serves nearly 300 enterprise customers globally using its background screening agent, Trace, including organisations such as Randstad Enterprise and Wipro.
It is also expanding into talent acquisition with its conversational AI agent Nina, which automates candidate outreach, qualification and introduction to hiring managers.
Jaibir Nihal Singh, founder and co-CEO at TraqCheck, said: “Recruiting has been stuck in search interfaces and fragmented tools for two decades. Agents change the interface entirely.
“Instead of navigating software, you simply tell an AI what role you want to hire for and the system executes the entire workflow. We are building systems that collaborate and make decisions, not just tools that display information.
“Our Series A comes at the perfect time, as HR departments are moving beyond isolated pilots to truly embedded autonomous agents. We believe that HR will be one of the earliest operational categories to see full automation. Future hiring teams will rely less on dashboards and more on digital colleagues.”
Armaan Mehta, founder and co-CEO at TraqCheck, added: “Recruiters spend an enormous amount of time navigating sourcing tools instead of actually speaking to candidates.
“Nina flips that model completely. You simply describe the role you want to hire for, and the agent handles sourcing, outreach and qualification autonomously.”
Vikram Gupta, founder and managing partner at IvyCap Ventures, said: “TraqCheck is building a compelling AI-native HR platform that reimagines how hiring workflows are executed.
“The team has demonstrated strong product vision and execution in applying autonomous agents to solve real enterprise challenges in talent acquisition and verification.
“We are delighted to partner with the TraqCheck team as they scale globally and help shape the future of HR operations.”
Mehekka Oberoi, fund manager at IIFL, said: “At IIFL Fintech Fund, we back companies building deep, defensible infrastructure at the intersection of AI and enterprise workflows.
“TraqCheck is exactly that – a vertically integrated AI-native platform that is not layering intelligence onto legacy HR software, but replacing it altogether.
“The Human Operating System thesis resonates with us deeply: as agentic AI moves from experimentation to production in enterprise environments, companies like TraqCheck that own the full workflow stack – sourcing, screening, verification – are positioned to become category-defining infrastructure. We are excited to partner with the team as they scale this vision across India and Europe.”
