At Merantix Venture Studio, we build and scale machine learning companies. We firmly believe that artificial intelligence technology will be the next seismic shift for society, and are therefore now at the forefront of founding and building the coming category leaders. After years of research in the field, we have created a three-step incubation process, during which we give our founders full 360° support. In the first phase, we help our founders ideate new solutions, and pair them up with industry partners for validation. Only once we have found a sustainable business model, which can take up to a year, we start the founding process, where we help with building a team. Lastly, we help in finding the right investors and setting the company up for successful scaling. Our growing platform constitutes a unique brand with a shared tech and operational infrastructure that attracts talent, resonates with industry partners, and leverages the proven network and product building experience.

The Challenge
Fuel Merantix’s growth by finding candidates with specific characteristics
Polina Frantseva was looking for a complimentary multiposting tool in addition to Merantix’s existing HR software, BambooHR. The goal was to find a solution that would help her post jobs efficiently on popular job boards and platforms, such as LinkedIn, Indeed, and Glassdoor, with only using a single login.
Previously, she had to use several logins to create job ads on multiple job boards. Her recruiting process involved quite a lot of copy and pasting, which consumed a lot of time and effort.
The three challenges Merantix was facing:
- How to multiply recruitment sources and channels?
- How to increase the number of qualified applications?
- How to attract the right talent from a specified target group, e.g., founders?
“JOIN is very intuitive and easy to use. Multiposting is a great function, and it provides a great user experience.”
