Fetcher hands a recruiter the sourcing desk, and on Amplify, $649 a month on annual billing, a dedicated human sourcer along with it. Metix AI hands back a qualified, interested candidate already booked for a first interview. Published pricing for both, and the trade-off each buyer accepts, checked August 2026.
Read →Fourteen AI recruiting tools, every price read off the vendor's own page, most of them on 10 August 2026. Eleven publish at least one number, Paradox, Findem and GoPerfect publish none, and the gap between sticker and spend comes from three places: seats that multiply, quotas that run out, and tiers that only exist behind a sales call.
Read →SHRM's benchmark average is $4,683 and its median is $1,244 (2021 data, published 2022), but the biggest cost-per-hire line appears on neither: hiring-manager and interviewer hours, which nobody invoices. The full component list, tool prices checked August 2026, and the hours-times-loaded-rate method for pricing the invisible slice.
Read →A contingency fee is 20 to 25 percent of first-year pay in SHRM's 2016 guidance, and a year of recruiting software runs $1,680 to $5,928 at list, checked August 2026. We work the break-even at three salary levels and show why the sticker comparison misleads.
Read →SeekOut searches a claimed 1B+ profiles behind 300+ filters and hands the campaigns back to your recruiters; its quote-only Spot service delivers screened candidates instead. Metix AI prices the delivered interview itself, $49 to $299 a month, checked August 2026.
Read →One arms the recruiting team you already have, on top of the ATS you already run; the other books qualified, interested candidates on your calendar and spends a credit only when one is delivered. Published pricing and the trade-offs, checked August 2026.
Read →What end-to-end actually means: Mira runs sourcing, outreach, screening, and scheduling as one loop, and no stage is handed back to your team.
Read →Scheduling is where interested candidates leak out of the funnel. Mira books them straight onto your calendar instead of handing you a list.
Read →A sourcing tool hands you a list. An AI recruiter hands you interviews. Where each one stops, what stays on your desk, and how to tell them apart on one live role.
Read →One is a network, one is a search engine, and one books interviews on your calendar. Published pricing and the trade-offs for all three, checked July 2026.
Read →Every hiring tool sells one slice of the work and hands the rest back. How the market really splits, why outcome pricing wins, and how Metix AI delivers interview-ready candidates.
Read →How Mira is designed from the ground up: five specialized sub-agents, a talent graph of over one billion public profiles, and two in-house fine-tuned models that turn hiring intent into scheduled interviews.
