Rapha
Rapha is an AI-powered applicant tracking system that uses audio responses from candidates to help startups and recruiting teams screen applicants without initial phone calls.
Rapha sells a recruiting platform (ATS) that combines AI with audio answers from applicants. It captures culture-fit and hard-skills signal early, so founders, recruiters and hiring managers can skip first-round phone screens. The product has a freemium model and targets startups and companies of all sizes. Rapha was founded in 2023 as a very small team. It raised an undisclosed round from LAUNCH, and PitchBook lists a $125K accelerator round in May 2024. PitchBook also flags the company as out of business as of Dec 2024, although its LinkedIn page and website still appear active.
