About
Based in California, US, and founded in 2019, Skillful. ly, Inc. operates as a software development company that uses virtual simulations for experiential hiring methods. Brett Waikart (CEO), Johnson Kanjirathinkal, and Karthik Ravi are the co-founders of the company.

Skillful. ly is a hiring technology company that transforms traditional recruitment processes through AI-powered workplace simulations. The firm’s platform provides assessments that evaluate real-world skills in text-based and voice-based scenarios. These simulations help employers make data-driven hiring decisions by showcasing candidates’ actual abilities rather than relying on self-reported experience.
The company’s platform enables companies to reduce screening time by 50%, lower hiring costs by 70%, and achieve 10x conversion rates by focusing on applicants with proven competencies. The organization plans to use the August 2024 funding for market expansion.
