Fetcher pricing: historical plans and transition costs

What did Fetcher publish for its plans?

Fetcher historically listed Self-serve at $115 a month. Growth was listed at $499 on monthly billing or a $379 monthly equivalent on an annual plan. Amplify was listed at $849 monthly or $649 on annual billing. Enterprise was quote-only. These are the USD amounts visible on the archived pricing page in the October 15, 2026 source check. Fetcher has announced platform retirement; they do not establish a current offer.

The annual equivalents imply $4,548 a year for Growth and $7,788 for Amplify. For an existing account, use the official transition notice and account-specific terms to resolve outstanding commitments. Fetcher pricing and plan comparison

Two conflicts remain in the archived material. The pricing page gives Self-serve the same $115 value in its monthly and annual plan data, while Fetcher's bulk candidate review article advertises $99 with an annual plan. Also, the plan table lists sourced talent under Growth, but the FAQ describes sourcing services as available in Amplify. Neither conflict establishes what an existing account is entitled to retain during the transition.

Compare the historical contract arithmetic

A team hiring for three months has a different decision from one sourcing all year. The table below applies the archived Fetcher rates to several paid periods, with current Metix Starter rates in a separate row. It illustrates the arithmetic only; a retired platform is not an available annual purchasing option. The annual column is not a three-month price or a verified invoice schedule.

Download the subscription cost worksheet (CSV). The calculation is monthly price × paid months, with a separate annual commitment column. No free trial, promotion, refund, extra seat, additional capacity, tax or internal labor is included. For an existing Fetcher account, check the transition instructions and your contract for the actual balance and exit terms.

Fetcher’s saved pricing page advertised a 30% annual saving. The displayed Growth rates give (499 − 379) ÷ 499 = 24.05%; Amplify gives (849 − 649) ÷ 849 = 23.56%. Use these historical discrepancies to check an existing order; budget a replacement from its own confirmed quote.

Keep leads and Fetcher-sourced talent separate

A search result, a profile delivered by a sourcing service, an interested reply and a booked interview are different outputs. Fetcher's archived table also separates database leads from sourced talent and inbound applicant reviews. Buying capacity does not guarantee that every profile will meet your role requirements.

The yearly labels do not prove that a one-month purchase gives immediate access to the entire yearly allowance. For an existing account, establish how allowances were allocated and what the transition notice says about unused balances. Do not assume those balances transfer to another product.

Fetcher's archived FAQ said additional leads were sold in blocks of 1,000 and roll over while you maintain a seat. It did not publish a block price there. Keep any purchased blocks separate from the included allowance when reconciling an existing contract. Additional-lead and plan-change FAQ

The saved Self-serve card listed 500 AI review credits per month, separately from 300 sourcing candidates. The old product article described bulk review on those 300 candidates. Keep the units separate when reviewing what an existing account received; neither figure means additional people available from a replacement.

The historical plan matrix listed ATS integration from Growth upward. Self-serve's free data export should not be read as an included ATS sync. For a replacement product, verify and demonstrate the exact connector rather than assuming export and sync are interchangeable.

Its archived product article describes bulk AI review in the web app and browser extension, with reasons for matches and recruiter recalibration. It also describes email sequencing. That workflow covered more than a static contact list. Use it to identify the search, review and outreach work a replacement needs to carry. Fetcher bulk review and extension workflow

Turn the allowance into a role budget

Start with the volume your hiring plan needs. In this hypothetical budget, a team opens two roles each quarter for four quarters and requests 75 Fetcher-sourced profiles per role. That is 2 × 4 × 75 = 600 profiles. The 75 is a planning input, not a benchmark for how many candidates it takes to make a hire.

Against the historical Growth figure of 500 sourced profiles a year, this example is short by 100. Against Amplify's historical 1,000, it leaves 400. This does not establish an available upgrade, transferable capacity or a delivery promise. Apply the same demand calculation to a replacement's actual service agreement.

Download the role, capacity and operator-time worksheet (CSV). Record calibration, candidate review, outreach approval, replies, scheduling and ATS handoff. Add your own hourly labor rate. Leave unknown seat and capacity prices blank until you get the quote.

For the replacement, a workable quote should state whether duplicate, unsuitable or already-contacted profiles consume the allowance, how replacements work, and which person handles replies and scheduling. A nominal 600-profile plan is not a promise of 600 suitable candidates. Ask for a sample on your role and the acceptance rules before committing.

Use replacement subscription + confirmed extras + retained obligations + transition costs + internal hours × loaded hourly rate for the replacement budget. Compare an agreed result, such as a suitable reviewed candidate or an interested reply, only after you have counted it. A lower subscription payment alone does not establish a lower cost per hire.

Preserve the records and assign the next reply

The official transition FAQ, checked October 16, lists October 16 as the shutdown and full-export request deadline, and November 19 as the end of email support. The notice gives month/day dates without a year, shutdown timezone or exact hour. Confirm access and deadlines directly with Fetcher rather than assuming the platform is still available from a pricing page.

• Records: establish what you exported and what is missing. The notice says positions, pipelines and notes do not move to Juicebox automatically. Its full-export description still contains a placeholder for the included contents, so request a file inventory and inspect the delivered files.
• Conversations: separate Gmail/Outlook history in your own inbox from outreach sent through Fetcher. The notice says replies to Fetcher-sent mail stop being received after shutdown; assign a person to continue active conversations through a confirmed channel.
• Connections: record which ATS and email integrations must be disconnected and which must be demonstrated in the replacement. Exporting a CSV does not recreate a working sync.
• Money: reconcile outstanding invoices, prepaid leads and unused credits for your account. The notice calls for individual review; it does not establish a standard refund, transferred balance or new subscription price.

Add export verification, connector setup, possible tool overlap and the hours for continuing candidate conversations to the replacement budget. Keep those costs separate from the historical Fetcher fee.

When does Metix belong in the comparison?

Metix Starter currently costs $99 monthly or $1,068 billed yearly. It includes one AI Agent and 5,000 monthly Credits. The Agent carries a hiring workflow from search through interview booking; your team supplies the brief, reviews candidates and approves outreach. Metix staff do not review the shortlist on a self-serve subscription. Metix plans and responsibility boundaries

Outside an active Agent's workflow, unlocking a candidate's email costs 10 Credits and unlocking phone numbers costs 20 Credits; a Deep Search list costs 100 Credits. The Credit consumption terms separate email and phone charges, so budget those actions separately. Work within an active Agent uses 0 Credits. Those Credits are not equivalent to Fetcher leads, and an included Agent is not a recruiter seat. Activating an Agent above the included allowance costs 3,000 Credits. Confirm concurrent-role and activation rules if your plan depends on several searches.

Fetcher historically served teams operating database searches, bulk candidate evaluation or a contracted sourcing service. Its Amplify material described a dedicated sourcer for roughly four to six roles. During a transition, identify which of those responsibilities your replacement must carry. Metix self-serve is relevant when your team can own the decisions but wants an Agent to carry the recruiting workflow. If you need Metix staff to run the search, Delivery is separately quoted.

The Metix AI vs Fetcher comparison covers the broader workflow choice. If operating sourcing from an AI assistant is mandatory, confirm that requirement separately: Metix has no public people-search MCP server or API.

Carry unresolved questions into the transition budget

• For an existing Fetcher account, reconcile invoices and the remaining commitment against the retirement notice and account-specific instructions.
• Confirm export, access and retention arrangements for candidate records, notes and conversation history. Do not assume an asset acquisition transfers your contract or unused allowances.
• Assign the sourcing, review, outreach, reply and scheduling work to named people or to the replacement service.
• Quote the replacement's seats, usage units, connectors, migration work and internal hours separately. Keep unknown costs blank until confirmed.

Test one role before committing to more capacity

Bring an approved live role, an agreed review standard and a named person responsible for replies. Check what the product actually leaves ready for that person. Log the remaining operator minutes and any usage limit that prevents the next step.

Metix offers a 14-day trial with one AI Agent and 500 Credits, without a credit card. Define a suitable candidate, inspect the initial matches, approve outreach and follow the replies through scheduling. Trial capacity differs from the paid Starter allowance. Replies, interviews and hires are not guaranteed.
