Joonko Inc. is a technology company that offers artificial intelligence-powered online tools to promote diversity and inclusion in hiring and personnel decisions. The company was founded in San Francisco, California in 2016 by Elad Shmilovich, Guy Grinwald, and Ilit Raz. The company is named in honor of Japanese mountain climber Junko Tabei, the first woman to summit Mount Everest.

After winning investment capital from the Alabama Futures Fund in 2018 the company agreed to relocate its US headquarters offices to Birmingham. In January 2019 Raz, the CEO, moved with the company to the Pack Health Building on 12th Street North at 1st Avenue North. Joonko also has an office in Tel Aviv, Israel.
