Getmee.ai successfully closes VC-Led capital raise amidst challenging global funding landscape.
Melbourne, Australia- January 8, 2024
Getmee, an Australian Education AI technology startup, today announced the successful completion of a funding round. The capital raise was led by the Australian venture capital fund, Access Capital Ventures(ACV), with support also coming from long-standing customers and existing investors.
Against the backdrop of a challenging global funding environment, for early stage technology companies, Getmee demonstrated its ability to continue to build on its commercial success to date, and to advance its mission of advancing employability skills via on demand mobile coaching; all underpinned by patented AI technology.
In a year marked by significant commercial growth, the company has also continued to develop a world’s first AI-coaching product that is now in use across 16 countries. The Getmee product is accessible through a user-friendly mobile application, and larger enterprise customers have the option to white-label the product allowing them to stay on brand.
Getmee is the brain child of Balendran Thavarajah, who arrived in Australia with no English or any formal schooling from Northern Sri Lanka. Once in Australia, ‘Bala’ taught himself English and gained access to Western Sydney University to complete a computer science degree through an alternative pathways program. Bala has since founded three technology companies; most notably Bluedot, as their founding Chief Technology Officer.
Getmee’s AI solutions have been widely embraced by Government Immigration Services Agencies, Employment service providers, Universities, Education providers, and forward-thinking Enterprises. The company serves an impressive list of customers and partners both in Australia and internationally, including AMES Australia, VFS Global, MTC Australia, Story House Early Learning, Far Eastern University, ISBR Business School Bangalore, Language Advantage Inc., and Deakin University.
With rapid growth across the NFP Employment Services and Enterprise Talent Acquisition sectors, the company has experienced explosive demand for its English Communication and Interview skills coaching AI product.
Allan Aaron, one of the General Partners of ACV, who is joining the Getmee board, said, “Getmee’s highly differentiated and scalable AI platform is transformative. We are excited to back Getmee and its talented team. The AI innovation and founding principles of the company resonate with ACV’s investment ethos.“
The fresh capital injection will help with the delivery of the company’s product roadmap, and solidify its market presence in 2024. This funding round serves as a testament to the unwavering commitment of both the Getmee team and its investors to drive innovation forward.
Balendran Thavarajah, Getmee’s CEO and Founder, said, “The funding and the experience of the ACV team brings, will allow us to support our growth. We look forward to achieving new milestones as we continue to push the boundaries of AI technology for communication skills coaching and reshape the industry landscape.”

In the dynamic landscape of employment services, the pivotal role played by Non-Profit (NFP) government-funded organisations cannot be overstated. These entities serve as the linchpin in connecting job seekers with opportunities and fostering economic participation at a macro level. However, the evolving nature of the job market demands innovative solutions to enhance the effectiveness of employment services. An AI-powered Employability App focused on improving job interview performance emerges as a strategic asset with the potential to revolutionise how individuals secure employment. In this blog, we will delve into the reasons why such an application is not just useful but essential for the success of Employment Services organisations.
Traditional job interview preparation methods are often one-size-fits-all, failing to address the unique strengths and weaknesses of individual candidates. An AI-powered Employability App can revolutionise this aspect by offering personalised coaching based on the user’s profile, experience, and the specific job they are applying for. Through data-driven insights, the app can identify areas for improvement and provide tailored guidance, ultimately enhancing the interview performance of each user.
One of the challenges faced by Employment Services organisations is reaching and assisting a diverse range of individuals, including those with various levels of accessibility or resources. An AI-powered Employability App can bridge this gap by providing a user-friendly and accessible platform for job interview preparation. This ensures that individuals from all walks of life, regardless of geographical location or socio-economic background, have access to high-quality coaching, thereby promoting inclusivity in employment services.
Employment Services organisations often grapple with resource constraints while trying to meet the increasing demand for their services. An AI-powered app offers a scalable solution, allowing organisations to reach a larger audience without significantly increasing their operational costs. The app can serve as a force multiplier, extending the impact of employment services to a broader population and facilitating more efficient use of available resources.
Immediate feedback is crucial for continuous improvement, especially in the context of job interviews. An AI-powered Employability App can provide real-time feedback on mock interview sessions, highlighting areas of strength and areas that need improvement. Moreover, the app can track users’ progress over time, enabling both job seekers and Employment Services organisations to measure the effectiveness of the coaching and adjust strategies accordingly.
The job market is dynamic, with evolving trends and expectations. An AI-powered Employability App can adapt to these changes in real-time, ensuring that users are equipped with the latest insights and strategies to navigate interviews successfully. This adaptability is a strategic asset for Employment Services organisations, allowing them to stay ahead of the curve and provide relevant, up-to-date guidance to job seekers.
Employment Services organizations can harness the power of data generated by the app to gain valuable insights into the collective needs and challenges of job seekers. Analysing user data can help identify common pain points, allowing organisations to tailor their services more effectively. This data-driven approach enables continuous improvement and ensures that Employment Services remain aligned with the ever-changing landscape of the job market.
An AI-powered Employability App has the potential to engage users actively in their job-seeking journey. By providing interactive features, gamified elements, and a user-friendly interface, the app can empower individuals to take control of their interview preparation process. This sense of agency and engagement contributes to a more confident and prepared pool of job seekers.
Innovation opens doors for strategic partnerships between Employment Services organisations and technology providers. Collaborating with tech companies can result in a symbiotic relationship where the expertise of both parties contributes to the development of a cutting-edge tool. Such collaborations can enhance the technological capabilities of Employment Services organisations, positioning them as leaders in the field.
In summary, the introduction of an AI-powered Employability App focused on improving job interview performance can be a game-changer for Employment Services organisations. By offering personalized coaching, promoting inclusivity, providing cost-effective scalability, offering real-time feedback, adapting to market trends, leveraging data-driven insights, and enhancing user engagement, such an app becomes a strategic asset that aligns with the evolving needs of job seekers and the demands of the contemporary job market. As technology continues to reshape the employment landscape, the integration of AI into the realm of job interview preparation stands as a powerful and strategic move for Employment Services organisations committed to empowering individuals and fostering economic participation on a broader scale.
