Boon Emerges as the Human-Centered Antidote to AI Chaos in Hiring

LOS ANGELES - Rezul -- Los Angeles, CA — 08/29/2005 — As recruiters face mounting pressure from AI-generated resume spam and the limitations of job boards, Boon is taking a different approach. The referral hiring platform, built by recruiters for recruiters, is gaining attention for offering a human-centered alternative focused on trust, not volume.

Rather than automating connection out of the hiring process, Boon strengthens it. The platform activates employees, alumni, and extended networks to surface qualified, high-fit candidates who often don't apply through traditional channels.

"AI has made it easy to apply, but hard to hire," said Dakota Younger, CEO of Boon. "Recruiters don't need more noise. They need a better signal. That's what Boon delivers."

Companies using Boon report a 90 percent referral-to-application rate and up to 40 percent referral-to-hire conversion. One customer, Infinity Rehab, recorded 22 hires within four months, all from trusted referrals.

Boon uses AI to support recruiters, not replace them. The platform recommends matches, automates notifications, tracks incentives, and keeps employees engaged through leaderboards, badges, and challenges. Meanwhile, real-time tracking and integrated payments streamline the experience for HR teams and referrers alike.

"Boon takes what works in human networks and enhances it," said Younger. "We're not replacing recruiters—we're giving them better tools to succeed."

"Getting it up and running during the trial period took just three days. It's intuitive, modern, and actually works the way recruiters need it to," said Wednesday Ursua, a Boon customer.

The platform has seen strong traction in industries like healthcare, logistics, and education, where speed and trust are critical. In one case, a healthcare client increased referrals from 16 to 52 in a single month, achieving a 40 percent hire rate. Another employer used Boon's embedded referral app to generate over 830 referrals and five hires with minimal lift from their talent team.

Boon also helps companies cut costs. RingCentral reduced its referral program spending by 48 percent after switching to Boon, while improving attribution accuracy and eliminating manual tracking.

As skepticism around automation grows, Boon is carving out a distinct position in the HR tech space by focusing on real relationships and results. Rather than competing in the crowded ATS and job board categories, the company is doubling down on community-powered recruiting.
