Bottom line

Mid-market people platform covering HRIS, onboarding, time and surveys. Quote-based, with a first-party MCP.

Stands out for: A modern HRIS with MCP and an API, built to be used by managers, not just HR admins.

Watch out for: No public price, and it is HR software rather than a sourcing tool.

Overview

HiBob is a mid-market HRIS and people platform, with onboarding, time and surveys sitting next to core HR. It is HR software, not a talent sourcing product. There is a first-party MCP at api.hibob.com plus an API.
