## About

Based in South Africa, Wamly Ltd operates as a B2B recruitment software developer. The company provides applicant tracking, one-way video interviewing, psychometric and skills assessments, and background screening through an integrated hiring platform.  The company was founded by Francois de Wet, who created the platform to address inefficiencies in hiring processes. Initially focused on one-way video interviews, Wamly evolved into an end-to-end hiring solution incorporating applicant tracking, assessments, and background checks. Entrepreneur Marnus Broodryk joined the company in 2020. Wamly secured investment from Knife Capital in 2021 and raised a YSD 3.05 million Series A round in 2026. As of July 2026, the company is led by CEO Francois de Wet. The company works with enterprises, SMEs, startups, HR teams, and hiring managers to provide comprehensive hiring technology solutions. Wamly's platform includes branded career pages, job distribution tools, applicant tracking, candidate screening, one-way video interviews, technical skills testing, psychometric assessments, cognitive and personality evaluations, learning agility assessments, and integrated background checks. The company has expanded from a video interview platform into a full recruitment operating system that supports attraction, screening, interviewing, assessment, and verification workflows. Its platform is used by organizations across more than 140 countries to improve hiring efficiency and decision-making. The company’s revenue is generated by providing subscription-based recruitment software to businesses seeking to streamline hiring operations. Clients purchase access to Wamly’s all-in-one hiring platform, which combines applicant management, video interviewing, assessments, career page creation, and background verification capabilities. Revenue is derived from enterprise and business customers that use the platform to manage recruitment workflows, evaluate candidates, collaborate on hiring decisions, and improve recruitment efficiency through a centralized software solution. With the recent USD 3.05 million Series A funding raised in June 2026, the company plans to grow by deepening product development, expanding AI-driven capabilities across the hiring workflow, increasing headcount, and accelerating international expansion. Management has stated that the new capital will support further technology enhancement while expanding the platform’s presence in additional global markets.
