Our Story

Virvell was born from 15 years of HR leadership across companies ranging from 300 to 15,000+ employees. After managing HR operations across technology, manufacturing, automotive, and media industries, our founder recognized a fundamental gap in how organizations understand their people.

Every hiring conversation, every interview, every performance review, and every exit interview generates valuable insights. Yet these conversations remain isolated in scattered notes, inconsistent documentation, and different systems. Critical patterns go unnoticed. Red flags surface too late. Strategic decisions get made without the full picture.

We're building the intelligence layer for talent - a platform that connects data across every conversation in the employee lifecycle, from screening through exit interviews. We started with automated screening because it's where hiring decisions begin, but our vision extends far beyond.

Our Mission

We believe better data leads to better talent decisions. Our mission is to connect insights across screening, interviews, performance reviews, and exit conversations - giving People Ops teams the conversational intelligence they need to spot patterns, identify concerns, and make evidence-based decisions about their most important asset: their people.

🎯 Intelligence

Every conversation generates insights. We connect them across the entire talent lifecycle to reveal patterns invisible in isolation.

⚡ Speed

Automated conversations happen in hours, not weeks. Make informed decisions faster without sacrificing quality.

🔒 Trust

Built for regulated industries with compliance at the core. Every insight comes with documentation and audit trails.

Why It Matters

Every hiring decision is a million-dollar bet. Yet most organizations make these bets based on incomplete, inconsistent, or outdated information.

❌

The Problem

Scattered Data: Pre-screen notes in one system, reference feedback in email threads, background checks in PDFs. Nothing connects.

Missing Context: References say one thing, background checks reveal another, but no one sees the full picture until it's too late.

Time Drain: Recruiters spend hours on phone tag, manual follow-ups, and chasing down paperwork instead of building relationships.
