Austin, Texas, November 1, 2017 – One Model, the people data strategy platform, announced the closing of $3.7 million in Series Seed funding from The Geekdom Fund, Otter Consulting, Techstars, and Lontra Ventures.
The One Model team will leverage this additional funding to fuel its international growth strategy, accelerate enterprise adoption for its products, and to further develop its leading HR data and analytics platform.
“Getting to know the One Model team over the past couple of years made it an easy decision for us to want to lead this round. From the beginning, the team has been able to address major enterprise needs with their powerful HR data analytics platform driving data insights from machine learning, delivering this to customers flexibly while making implementation easy,” voiced Don Douglas, Managing Director of The Geekdom Fund. “One Model's people analytics infrastructure has changed how a number of organizations plan, execute, and evaluate their HR strategies and we are excited to support the proliferation of this game-changing platform.”
“The HR departments of multinationals see the value proposition that One Model brings to their infrastructure, evidenced by the rapid growth One Model has experienced. The implementation time and dollars saved are enormous,” states Mike Wohl, the Investment Manager of Otter Consulting. “The future looks very bright for One Model and all of the companies that utilize their offering.”
The Austin, Texas-based startup is uniquely positioned to address a key pain point within the HR industry and is primed for growth. The company’s platform removes the heavy lifting out of extracting, cleansing, modeling, and delivering analytics from your workforce data.
“One Model sits at the center of all people data held by an organization. As such, we’re in a unique position to understand, extend, and deliver organizations with transformative value from this data. Our vision is that every company will need what amounts to a secondary system of record that connects together all of their disparate people systems and provides a level of insight that no transactional system can achieve on its own. We’re only beginning to scratch the surface of what is possible with the level of HR system interaction we are now achieving, and this investment allows us to double down on our approach” says Chris Butler, CEO of One Model.
Founded in late 2014, the company has rapidly grown to support HR data and analytics needs of customers in over 156 cities around the world. This additional round of funding continues to authenticate the universal need for improved HR data and analytics management, and to validate One Model’s decision to assume a leadership role in addressing these data challenges head-on.
“One Model leads the charge as the HR industry embraces analytics to improve career satisfaction, retention, and equity. The team is comprised of true industry experts who understand the nuances of enterprise software and the power machine learning. One Model’s robust pipeline of enterprise and channel customers will transform the lives of millions of professionals across the globe,” according to Andrea Kalmans, Lontra Ventures.
