BDsniper vs Hirebase

Same facts, side by side: starting price, free tier, MCP, API and what each one is actually built for.

Starting price

BDsniper

$82.50/mo Free tier

Business development search for recruitment agencies: it lists the UK and US companies hiring for the roles your desk places, shows why each one needs help now, and reveals who to contact. The free plan has no card and 10 contact reveals a month; Pro is $990 billed yearly for five seats and 300 reveals.

Where BDsniper fits

  • Agency recruiters doing their own business development on a UK or US desk
  • Small agencies that want five seats of client prospecting for one yearly fee
  • Niche desks hunting roles that have been open for weeks or reposted
  • Recruiters who already have a CRM or sequencer and only need the target list

Hirebase

$50/mo Free tier

A job search engine and data API built from company career pages, which agency recruiters can use as a business development list: see who is hiring for the roles you place, track hiring velocity and pull the likely hiring manager. Free to search, Pro is $50/mo.

Where Hirebase fits

  • Agency recruiters hunting for companies hiring in their niche
  • Sales and BD teams using hiring as a buying signal
  • Job boards and tools that need a fresh jobs feed by API

Where they pull apart

BDsniper

Stands out: The filters are built around agency timing rather than generic firmographics. You can keep only roles open longer than a month or roles posted twice, the clearest sign a company is struggling to fill a seat, and each company opens on its live and new role counts, the oldest open role and the teams growing at once. A five-seat Pro plan at $990 a year is cheap for a whole desk.

Watch out: Coverage is the UK and the US only, and the one signal is job adverts; there is no funding, leadership change or news feed. There is no outreach built in, so contacts and company lists go to your own CRM or sequencer. It is a very new product run by a single publisher under French law, with terms dated September 2026 and no independent reviews yet.

Not the right fit for

  • Agencies placing outside the UK and the US
  • Teams that want sequencing and outreach in the same tool
  • Buyers who want funding or leadership-change signals alongside job adverts

Hirebase

Stands out: Jobs come straight from more than 230,000 career pages, refreshed hourly on paid API plans, not from job board aggregators, and expired roles are filtered out. Pro returns up to 25 hiring manager contacts a day, and a separate Hiring Manager API finds the decision maker behind a role for $0.30 a run.

Watch out: It is built first as a data product, so the no-code side is a search and export app rather than an outreach tool; you still need a sequencer. API plans count every job returned, so wide searches use the allowance quickly. The free API tier refreshes daily, not hourly.

Not the right fit for

  • In-house teams looking for candidates rather than companies
  • Recruiters who want contact data and sequencing in one tool
