How to choose hr & recruiting tools
Start with the job you need done, because these tools cover different parts of hiring. Workable, Manatal and Greenhouse are built around applicant tracking, while Fetcher and Findem focus on sourcing, Paradox automates screening and scheduling, and HireVue centres on interviews and assessments. Textio is narrower still, offering guidance on job posts, interview notes and performance feedback.
Next, check pricing. Only Manatal (from $15/mo) and Workable (from $299/mo) list a starting price, and both offer a free trial. Most others require contacting the vendor, so expect to request a quote before you can compare costs.
If hiring data needs to reach other systems, look for an API: Workable, Paradox, Greenhouse, Findem and Manatal have one. Platform matters too. Workable has iOS and Android apps, Workable, Greenhouse and Manatal have Chrome extensions, and Fetcher works in Slack.
Finally, consider fit: HireVue targets enterprise hiring teams, Manatal serves HR teams and agencies, and 7shifts is built for restaurants.
Frequently asked questions
Are there free HR and recruiting tools?
None of the tools listed here is shown as having a free plan. Manatal and Workable both offer free trials, so they are the easiest to try before paying.
How much do AI recruiting tools cost?
Only two tools list a starting price: Manatal from $15/mo and Workable from $299/mo. HireVue, Paradox, Eightfold AI, Greenhouse, Findem, Fetcher and Textio require contacting the vendor for pricing, and we don't have pricing information for 7shifts.
What should I look for in an AI hiring tool?
Check that it covers the stage you need, such as applicant tracking, sourcing, screening or interviews. Then compare pricing, API access and supported platforms, and whether it suits your type of organisation. For example, HireVue targets enterprise hiring teams, while Manatal is aimed at HR teams and agencies.
What are the alternatives to a full applicant tracking system?
If you only need help with part of the process, some tools here are more focused. Fetcher handles candidate sourcing and automated outreach, Paradox automates screening, scheduling and onboarding, HireVue covers interviews and assessments, and Textio gives guidance on job posts, interview notes and performance feedback.
