Genius HR solutions is a Barcelona startup recently founded (2023), which came to the market wanting to help companies create, build and retain high-impact teams, emphasizing how culture and business values promote business success.
In today's article, we'll tell you what makes them special.
What issues do they address?
Have you ever had to take charge of the process of selecting a new profile for your department? Surely you have found that after spending time searching for new profiles that fit the needs of your company, when you reach the interview phase, you realize that several of them, although they may perform well and meet the objectives set, will not fit in with the company's culture in the long term. Genius is aware that most hiring processes are not efficient, generating more and more costs, which is why they are developing a innovative solution that, through Artificial Intelligence, allows its clients to reduce the costs of hiring a candidate for companies by 80% and reduce the time to less than 30 days, increasing the cultural and technical fit of candidates. Because it's important to understand that Artificial Intelligence is not a threat that could take away your job, but rather an opportunity to make processes within companies more efficient.
What is the startup team?
Genius HR solutions has a small team with very complementary profiles, and with previous experience in relevant companies in their sector, composed of:

What does the Genius HR solutions solution consist of?
Genius is working on BRAI, an AI Job Description Expert capable of solving 80% of the inefficiencies generated during the launch of an employment offer. The tool develops high-quality Job Descriptions in an automated and 100% customized way. This allows companies to enhance their Employer Branding and reduce the closing time of their selection processes.BRAI's value proposition is clear:
- It allows you to automate the creation, definition and drafting of the need, which will speed up the selection process and optimize team resources.
- It will enhance the company's talent attraction: Through personalized offers that will stand out above those of the competition, highlighting culture, values and what makes you different, to connect with talent that feels identified with you.
- Greater autonomy for your managers: brai advises each manager in discovering, creating and analyzing the needs of their team.
- Talent development. Brai not only helps define present needs but also future needs, allowing us to create professional evolution in tasks, roles and contributions of the next hires and those of the current team.
In addition, BRAI is very easy to use, once registered on the platform, the tool will allow you to open new positions and after a short list of questions that will allow you to understand your needs, it will directly give you a job description for the position you are looking for in less than 3 minutes. With a focus on making the selection process efficient from start to finish, the Genius team is working to enhance the functionality of the tool. The future integration of BRAI with ats, employment portals, etc. will make it possible to automate the publication of the job offers generated. And, through LUX, an AI Recruitment Expert, their second tool, companies can benefit from AI and data analysis technology, to analyze large amounts of data, to evaluate both the technical and cultural fit of each of the candidates, increasing the probability of successful hiring.
Genius HR Solutions Funding
Just a few weeks after launching their first mvp, they already have a base of +30 customers and a closed round of +50,000 € that will allow them to take the tool to another level. Intelectium is working with Genius HR Solutions on a request from Enisa to be able to leverage this first inflow of private capital to the startup with public funds. The idea is to equalize private contribution with public funding so that the company has more working capital to be able to grow. We will keep you updated on the latest news about the startup!
