Homerun AI Info page

SUMMARY

Homerun is an applicant tracking system (ATS) and HR management tool for growing companies with 20 to 200 employees. It helps HR managers and hiring teams manage the full hiring process, from job posting to offer, and track employee leave and absence in one platform. Founded in 2014, headquartered in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

What Homerun is

Homerun is an applicant tracking system (ATS) and HR management software built for companies with 20 to 200 employees. It combines a hiring pipeline, a career site builder, and an HR module, including leave and absence management, in a single tool.

The product serves companies globally, with a primary focus on the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The product interface is in English. Career pages and job posts can be published in 17 languages, including Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Finnish, Norwegian, Russian, Italian, Portuguese, Danish, Polish, and Latvian.

Homerun sits between basic ATS tools and enterprise HR platforms. It is built for companies that have outgrown spreadsheets and shared inboxes but do not yet need the complexity of a full HRIS like Personio.

Problems Homerun solves

• Coordinating interview schedules across hiring managers and candidates by email wastes hours per hire. Homerun eliminates this with candidate self-scheduling linked to interviewer calendars.
• Candidate feedback is scattered across Slack, email, and spreadsheets, making structured hiring decisions difficult. Homerun gives hiring teams one place to track, evaluate, and communicate with every candidate.
• HR managers track employee leave and absence in spreadsheets with no central visibility for managers. Homerun replaces this with a shared leave calendar and approval workflow.
• Growing companies have no employer brand on their careers page. Generic job board listings reduce application quality. Homerun's career site builder lets teams publish a branded careers page without engineering support.
• Hiring teams have no structured way to evaluate candidates consistently, increasing the risk of biased decisions. Homerun uses scored team feedback per candidate to make evaluation auditable and consistent.

Ideal customer profile

Homerun is built for companies with 20 to 200 employees, primarily Series A and Series B scaleups and established SMEs. The industries it serves most are technology and SaaS, retail, e-commerce, creative and design agencies, and hospitality.

The primary user is an HR Manager, People Operations Manager, or Office Manager at smaller companies. The economic buyer is typically a Head of People or HR Manager. At companies where that role does not yet exist, the buyer is a COO or Operations Manager who owns both the HR function and the tools budget.
