Founded by Steven Bartel and Nick Bushak in 2017, Gem was created to help recruiting teams move away from disconnected hiring tools and bring everything into one intelligent platform. Today, Gem is an AI-first recruiting platform that combines AI agents, applicant tracking (ATS), recruiting CRM, sourcing, scheduling, analytics, talent marketing, and candidate engagement in a single system. What makes Gem stand out is its focus on helping recruiters work faster with agentic AI, unified candidate data, and automation that can boost productivity by up to 5x while reducing hiring costs and time-to-hire. Users especially appreciate its clean interface, seamless integrations with existing ATS platforms, and the ability to replace multiple recruiting tools with one connected solution. Trusted by more than 1,200 talent acquisition teams, including companies like Reddit, DoorDash, Figma, GitLab, and Walgreens, Gem has become a popular choice for organizations looking to scale hiring efficiently.
