What BoomerangHR does

BoomerangHR is a US platform that turns former employees into a searchable alumni network and uses AI to match alumni against open roles for rehiring. Its offboarding module with guided exit interviews is labeled beta as of September 2026.

  • AI matching algorithm ranks former employees against open roles with a fit percentage and eligibility guardrails
  • Automated outreach contacts qualified alumni matches without manual recruiter messages

Headquartered in New York with a second office in Toronto, founded in 2023 and, according to press coverage, funded by US investors, with enterprise customers named across US industries.

Before you switch: BoomerangHR does not publish prices, and the site offers a savings calculator instead of a rate card, so ask for a quote based on headcount and turnover. Because the platform ranks named former employees against open roles, using it for rehiring in New York City may require an independent bias audit under Local Law 144. Alumni profiles update automatically from HRIS, ATS and public career data, so ask which sources feed each profile and how long it is kept.
