SplendUp
BD software for recruiting firms that matches unplaced candidates to companies hiring now and runs MPC outreach to decision makers.
From $125/seat/mo 14-day free trial
Bottom line
SplendUp is a Paris based business development tool for recruiting and staffing firms that matches the candidates sitting in your ATS to companies hiring for similar roles, finds the decision makers and runs MPC outreach. It suits agency owners and billers who want to win new clients off the back of candidates they already have. There is a free two week trial, then Core at $140/seat/mo or $125/seat/mo billed yearly, with custom outcome based pricing.
Stands out for: It starts from your unplaced candidates rather than a lead list: AI matches them to live and past jobs, then builds anonymised CVs and a pitch to the right hiring manager. The Splendid plan can be priced on leads or placements generated instead of seats.
Watch out for: The job board data leans toward Europe (InfoJobs sits next to Indeed and Glassdoor) and the company is small with its About page still marked coming soon. Core includes only 200 verified phone numbers, and there are no outside reviews yet.
Overview
SplendUp is a French company, registered in Paris, that builds business development software for recruiting and staffing firms. Its focus is the most placeable candidate (MPC) process: taking good candidates you did not place and finding clients who might hire them.
It connects to your ATS to import candidate and client data, and pulls live and historical job postings from 16+ job boards. AI then matches your candidates to open and past jobs, and you can set alerts for your ideal client profile and recurring roles.
For each target company it finds relevant contacts such as executives and hiring managers, imports their profiles and enriches them with verified emails and phone numbers.
Campaigns run across LinkedIn and email from one place. SplendUp generates anonymised CVs and candidate profiles, offers pitch templates, and tracks profile views, replies and placements, with next action prompts for follow ups.
The Starter trial is free for two weeks with free setup and leads. Core is $140/seat/mo monthly or $125/seat/mo billed yearly, with unlimited company search, unlimited verified emails and 200 verified phones. Splendid is a custom deal priced on leads or placements, or on license volume above five seats.
