Elip AI
Elip AI is a Y Combinator (W25) startup building an AI job agent that lives inside WhatsApp. It reads through millions of job postings overnight, filters out ghost and duplicate listings, and sends each user a short list of ranked, personalized matches by morning - plus tailored, ATS-ready resumes. It is free for job seekers; employers pay when they hire. Founded by Gaurav Luhariwala, the company is based in San Francisco with an Indian entity in Jaipur.
Wonolo
Wonolo is an on-demand staffing marketplace whose name stands for 'Work Now Locally.' Founded in 2013 out of Coca-Cola's Founders program, it connects businesses that need workers for warehousing, delivery, merchandising, event staffing, and general labor with a pool of more than one million registered workers ('Wonoloers'). Employers post shifts that can be filled in minutes, and workers browse and accept nearby gigs through a mobile app with fast payouts. The company has raised over $200 million in venture funding and is used by thousands of companies across the United States.
Gyfted
Gyfted is a Stanford-connected, remote-first HR-tech company that builds psychometric and cognitive assessments powered by behavioral science and AI. Its free consumer quizzes (Big Five, EQ, DISC, cognitive ability) draw millions of test-takers via organic search, while its B2B software helps founders, recruiters and team leaders screen candidates and hire for role and culture fit. Co-founded in 2020 by CEO Robert Kowalski with a team that includes Stanford GSB psychometrician Michal Kosinski as an adviser, Gyfted has raised roughly $1.3M in early funding.
Robert Kowalski
Robert Kowalski is the co-founder and CEO of Gyfted, a behavioral-science recruiting platform that matches people to jobs and teams on personality, culture fit and ability rather than CVs. A Stanford GSB MBA and LSE economist, he built Gyfted with Stanford computational psychologist Michal Kosinski and engineer Adam Szefer to make remote hiring faster and less biased. He signs his own title 'Village Idiot ie. CEO' and frames the entire recruiting industry as broken and worth flipping over.
