Founded in 2012 by Daniel Chait and Jon Stross, it centralizes applicant tracking, interview scorecards, candidate sourcing, onboarding and reporting into one system used by more than 7,500 organizations. Rather than pushing automation for its own sake, Greenhouse pitches 'structured hiring' - a consistent, comparable process for evaluating candidates - and has layered in AI tools and fraud detection to keep that process reliable as application volumes surge.
