LinkedIn’s AI hiring agents on track for $450 million in annual revenue

San Francisco: LinkedIn said Wednesday that its hiring products using agentic AI are on track to generate $450 million in sales in the coming year. The products, some of which were in testing for nearly a year before release, are helping recruiters save time and get higher response rates when contacting potential hires, the company said.

The sales disclosure for a core AI product is new for LinkedIn, which has 1 billion members and makes much of its revenue from selling tools to sales and recruiting professionals. While Microsoft reports LinkedIn’s overall sales growth as part of its productivity and business process operating unit, it does not disclose absolute dollar figures for the network.

The $450 million projection signals strong early traction for LinkedIn’s push into agentic AI — systems that can take actions on behalf of users. The hiring tools are designed to automate outreach, screen candidates, and streamline recruiting workflows for enterprises.
