Canvas Looks to Take on TextRecruit Following its $1.7 Million Seed Round

Hot off TextRecruit’s recent $3 million raise, a new competitor has arisen. Indianapolis-based Canvas is the brainchild of former Cha Cha executive Aman Brar, and uses the advantages of text messaging to help recruiters connect with talent. Brar was also president of Apparatus before it was acquired by Virtusa for $34.2 million cash.
