Entelo was founded in May 2011 and launched in October 2012 with an undisclosed amount of seed funding.[1][2] Initially, Entelo offered two products: Search, which allowed recruiters to browse over 300 million social profiles using standard Boolean search, and Sonar, a predictive algorithm used to determine which candidates were most likely to leave their current job.[3] In June 2013, Entelo announced $3.5 million in Series A funding, led by Battery Ventures and Menlo Ventures.[4][5]

Entelo launched its Diversity product in April 2014, allowing recruiters to source candidates from underrepresented groups based on gender, ethnicity, and veteran status.[6] Its email tracking and outreach tool, Track, was released in January 2015.[7] The company launched a candidate-ranking analytics solution called Stack in October 2015[8] and followed up with a mobile companion to Stack in October 2016.[9] In June 2017, Entelo raised $20 million Series C round of funding led by U.S. Venture Partners with Battery Ventures, Shasta Venture and Correlation Ventures.[10]
