Take2 AI

Take2 AI builds an AI agents platform purpose-built for healthcare recruiting. Its agent network automates the end-to-end hiring process from job posting to job offer - sourcing, screening, credential verification, scheduling and onboarding - without human intervention. The company operates in the United States and focuses on health systems, hospitals and healthcare staffing.

The flagship product, AI Interviewer, conducts phone interviews with candidates around the clock, evaluates them, records calls and syncs results directly into applicant tracking systems. The agent is trained on healthcare-specific hiring data. Technical work spans autonomous agents, natural language processing and voice AI, speech evaluation and call recording, and ATS integration.

Take2 AI has raised $17M in total, including a $14M Series A in February 2026. Investors include Human Capital, Bertelsmann Healthcare Investments, Reach Capital, SemperVirens VC and Honeystone Ventures. The company was founded by Stanford GSB classmates Kaushik Narasimhan and Yaniv Shimoni.

The market it addresses is large and structurally strained: roughly one in three new American jobs is in healthcare, and turnover in the industry often exceeds 50%. The company's stated aim is to reduce hiring costs, shorten time-to-hire and improve retention and quality of hire.
