Abhijeet Chakravarty — Co-Founder

Enterprise hiring at scale is broken - slow, fragmented, and audit-prone. For BFSI and other regulated industries, onboarding 100–500 people a month through disconnected ATS, BGV, and HRMS systems creates compliance exposure, candidate dropouts, and millions lost in productivity. At 𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮.𝗮𝗶, we’ve built an 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜–𝗱𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻, 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 that fixes this. Our model combines AI orchestration with human precision to deliver measurable business outcomes - 𝟵𝟬% 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝟭𝟬𝟬% 𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁-𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 ₹𝟭–𝟮 𝗖𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 - 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝟲𝟬–𝟵𝟬 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀. Before co-founding iona.ai, I led HR systems and analytics at 𝗕𝗵𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶 𝗔𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗹,, supporting high-volume hiring across multiple geographies. That experience shaped our philosophy: enterprises don’t need more tools; they need 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀. Today, our platform powers onboarding for leading organizations like 𝗔𝗱𝗶𝘁𝘆𝗮 𝗕𝗶𝗿𝗹𝗮 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽, 𝗛𝗗𝗙𝗖 𝗘𝗿𝗴𝗼, 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘀 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲, 𝗦𝗕𝗜 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹, and others - unifying their HR workflows and ensuring zero audit failures across entities. Our focus remains consistent: to help CHROs, TA Heads, and HR Operations leaders modernize hiring at enterprise scale - 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀, 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗿𝘂𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀, 𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲. If your hiring function is under pressure to digitize faster, reduce audit risk, or prove HR ROI - 𝗹𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁. to discuss how 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗼𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝟵𝟬-𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀. www.iona.ai/schedule-demo www.iona.ai
