Wanted Lab AI features and pricing (September 2026)

Wanted Lab is a Korean AI recruiting platform whose AI agents, trained on more than ten million matching data points according to the vendor, connect companies with digital talent and screen applicants. It serves companies hiring in South Korea and, since 2023, Japan.

Wanted Lab runs Wanted, a recruiting platform where companies post jobs and find digital talent, with AI agents that the vendor says are trained on more than ten million matching data points. For applicants in the recruiting dashboard, the AI screening engine Vetify returns a suitability assessment with reasons. Wanted AX adds ennoia, a platform for building company AI agents in natural language, plus training and custom agent development.

Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Seoul, Wanted Lab is listed on the KOSDAQ exchange and reports more than 35,000 client companies and 3.6 million registered professionals. It expanded into Japan through a subsidiary, Wanted Japan, established in 2023, followed by a Korea-Japan placement partnership.

• Predicts whether a match will workWanted Lab's algorithm draws on more than ten million matching data points to estimate, according to the vendor, how likely a given candidate and job are to result in a successful hire. Recruiters see this estimate alongside each application instead of judging fit from a resume alone.
• Runs AI agents for candidate placementAI agents handle parts of the placement process automatically, moving candidates through matching and outreach steps without a recruiter driving each one by hand. This is aimed at cutting the manual coordination work in high-volume hiring.
• Screens applicants with reasonsWanted's AI screening engine, Vetify, checks the resumes of applicants in the recruiting dashboard against the position's screening criteria and returns a suitability assessment with its reasoning. Recruiters start from a pre-sorted pile and can see why a resume was rated the way it was.
• Supports bilingual Korea-Japan placementsFor the Korea-Japan matching service, AI matching is combined with local consultants to connect bilingual candidates with Japanese employers and flag visa and relocation requirements. Companies hiring across both markets get one coordinated process instead of two separate ones.

• Stores data in the AWS Seoul region; resume screening uses OpenAI and AWS services in the US, as the privacy policy discloses.
• More than 35,000 client companies according to the vendor, with a dedicated Japan subsidiary operating since 2023.
• Interface is available in Korean, English, and Japanese, unusual among sourcing tools focused on a single home market.
• Publicly listed on the KOSDAQ exchange, so financial results are disclosed on a regular reporting cycle.

Based in Seoul with more than 35,000 client companies according to the company; in Japan, Wanted Lab operates through its subsidiary Wanted Japan, established in 2023, and a partnership with LAPRAS brought more than 200 Japanese companies onto the platform within six months, according to a Google for Startups case study.

Before buying, clarify pricing directly with Wanted Lab, since no public pricing page or free trial is documented. Confirm which entity holds your data and where it is stored, since the vendor runs a separate Japan subsidiary. Because the AI ranks candidates, ask how Wanted Lab supports the risk assessment, user notification and human oversight that South Korea's AI Framework Act requires for qualifying hiring systems. In Japan, the AI Promotion Act relies on non-binding guidelines that recommend bias testing and human oversight.
