Overview

Workable is a mid-market applicant tracker with sourcing and assessments in the same product, and AI ranking so recruiters open stronger matches first. There is a first-party MCP at mcp.workable.com plus an API.

Teams pick it when they want one mid-market contract instead of an enterprise ATS plus a separate sourcer. Standard is $299 a month, or $3,588 a year, with a 15-day free trial; Premier is $599 a month.
