Talent engagement platform
Gem’s talent engagement platform helps recruiting teams use data and automation to improve hiring speed, quality, and diversity. Gem unifies data and context from the tools recruiters use every day, including email, applicant tracking systems, LinkedIn, and other social networks, to create a source of truth for all talent relationships. Armed with insights about the entire recruiting process, automation to reach out to talent at scale, and true cross-functional collaboration tools, TA teams can proactively and strategically plan for what’s ahead. Gem's customers are savvy recruiting teams from industry-leading companies — like Wayfair, Dropbox, Nasdaq, Cisco, and Doordash — who understand that hiring the best talent in the market is key to maintaining their competitive advantage.
Gem is an AI-first, all-in-one recruiting platform that combines ATS, CRM, sourcing, scheduling, and analytics, with access to a large pool of profiles and AI-enabled workflows. It offers an integrated solution or AI agents that work with existing ATS, aiming to boost recruiter productivity and reduce tech spend. The platform targets talent acquisition teams across startups to enterprises seeking unified recruiting tooling and measurable efficiency gains.
Gem provides two deployment options: (1) AI agents that operate with any ATS, and (2) Gem's own all-in-one platform that includes a next-generation ATS, CRM, sourcing, scheduling, analytics, and AI-driven workflows. The product emphasizes a unified interface, consolidated data, and AI recommendations across sourcing, CRM, ATS, scheduling, and analytics, with the ability to connect to external systems (e.g., Workday) for seamless data flow. It also highlights cost savings from consolidating tools and boosting recruiter productivity, along with over 800 million profiles to source from and measurable improvements in time-to-hire and efficiency.

Co-founder & CEO @ Gem. Prior to founding Gem, Steve was an engineering leader at Dropbox where his experience working closely with the recruiting process allowed him to see the lack of technology in the space. This inspired him to co-found Gem, which allows recruiting teams of all sizes to source talent, engage with talent, and use data to improve recruiting processes.
