Description: BZ Kanzhun November 04, 2025
Kanzhun Limited (NASDAQ:BZ) operates BOSS Zhipin and Dianzhang Zhipin, two mobile platforms that connect Chinese job seekers with employers through AI-enhanced services such as resume polishing, job matching, messaging filters, and interview simulations. The firm also sells AI-powered tools to enterprises for crafting job descriptions, communicating with candidates, and filtering applicant lists, while offering ancillary consulting and technical support.
As of the most recent disclosed quarter, Kanzhun reported approximately 70 million monthly active users (MAU) across its apps and a year-over-year revenue increase of roughly 45 % (FY 2023), driven largely by higher monetization of premium enterprise subscriptions. Gross margins have hovered near 70 % thanks to the scalability of its AI infrastructure, though operating expenses remain elevated due to ongoing talent acquisition and R&D investment.
The Chinese online recruitment market is estimated to exceed 200 billion RMB, with growth propelled by a tightening labor market, increasing corporate adoption of digital hiring tools, and government incentives for AI development. However, regulatory scrutiny over data privacy and platform fairness poses a material risk that could affect user growth and monetization pathways.
