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

LinkedIn, the social network for professionals owned by Microsoft, on Wednesday said that its hiring products using what is known as agentic AI are on track to generate $450 million in sales in the coming year.

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.
