ZipRecruiterpublic
ZipRecruiter runs a two-sided online employment marketplace. Employers post a job once, it is sent out widely, and AI matching surfaces likely candidates. Job seekers use the service for free, and the company earns money from employer subscriptions and performance-based fees. Founded in 2010 by Ian Siegel, Joe Edmonds, Ward Poulos and Will Redd, it raised a $63M Series A in 2014 and a $156M Series B in 2018 at a $1.5B valuation, then direct-listed on the NYSE (ZIP) in 2021. Revenue was $449M in FY2025, down from a $0.90B peak in 2022. Q2 2026 revenue was $118.1M, up 5% year over year, with over 63,000 quarterly paid employers.
