We are disrupting hospitality hiring by reducing the time it takes to hire staff from months to < 3 days. Hiring staff is the biggest challenge for many of the 2M+ hospitality businesses in Europe.

At Hirebolt we eliminate all this work for employers, by finding actively-looking candidates, vetting them and automatically matching them to the best employers using AI.
