X0PA AI is a Singapore-based B2B SaaS company specializing in ethical, AI-powered recruitment and talent acquisition solutions. The platform is designed to automate and optimize hiring processes for enterprises, governments, and academic institutions. X0PA’s mission is to maximize objectivity in hiring, ensuring fair, data-driven decisions that improve workforce diversity and retention. The company’s flagship product, the AI Recruiter, uses machine learning and predictive analytics to streamline candidate sourcing, screening, and scoring, while its broader suite includes tools for academic admissions, staffing agencies, and autonomous AI agents.
X0PA AI was founded in 2017 by Nina Alag Suri, a seasoned entrepreneur and former CEO of the global executive search firm Nastrac Group. Co-founder Dr. Jussi Keppo, a professor at the National University of Singapore, brought academic rigor and analytics expertise to the venture. The company was born out of Nina’s desire to disrupt traditional hiring models and introduce objectivity through AI and data science. Headquartered in Singapore, X0PA has expanded its presence across APAC, India, the UK, and the UAE, supported by global partnerships.
Between 2019 and 2022, X0PA experienced rapid growth, earning recognition as the 31st fastest-growing company in Singapore and the 5th fastest among IT/software firms. By 2023, the platform had facilitated over 1 million job postings, a major milestone that underscored its scalability and market traction.
X0PA AI has raised over $4.9 million in funding through multiple rounds, including a Series A backed by investors such as ICCP SBI Venture Partners and Seeds Capital. While its exact valuation is not publicly disclosed, the company’s consistent growth, global expansion, and product innovation suggest a strong upward trajectory in enterprise value.
X0PA’s product ecosystem is built around intelligent automation and ethical AI. Key offerings include:
These tools are built on a foundation of bias-free AI, excluding sensitive attributes like gender and ethnicity, and validated through AI VERIFY certification for ethical and explainable AI.
X0PA acquired Nastrac Group, the executive search firm previously led by Nina Alag Suri, to strengthen its recruitment capabilities and expand its global footprint. The company has also launched new AI agents and modules to support evolving client needs, including Ruby for real-time candidate communication and Zeus for interview intelligence.
In 2025, X0PA launched the Agentic AI Suite, marking a shift toward a “system-of-experts” model. These agents work autonomously to support recruiters from job requisition to onboarding, reducing cognitive load and improving decision-making. The suite reflects X0PA’s commitment to continuous innovation and minimalistic user experience design.
X0PA fosters a values-led culture rooted in respect, honesty, collaboration, ownership, and humility. The team is composed of global experts in AI, engineering, and HR technology, with leadership committed to ethical innovation and inclusive hiring. The company actively participates in industry events, accessibility panels, and AI ethics forums, reinforcing its role as a thought leader in responsible AI.
X0PA serves over 100 organizations globally, including government agencies, universities, and multinational enterprises. Its platform supports multilingual functionality, including Arabic, making it suitable for diverse regions like the GCC. The company engages with its user community through webinars, conferences, and partnerships, including collaborations with Raqmiyat and Netways in the Middle East.
