Where they pull apart

Brainner

Stands out: Ranking plus fraud (300-plus signals) with two-way ATS sync, not a generic ChatGPT-on-CVs wrapper.

Watch out: Analyses are metered: the paid tier covers a fixed quota and extra analyses are charged per analysis, with unlimited sold as an add-on. A busy month is the thing to model, not the headline.

Not the right fit for

Teams that will not use AI on applications
Companies that need a flat, unmetered price
Agencies that need a full ATS

Canditech

Stands out: Job-simulation assessments with AI scoring, then ranking: tests first, not a resume-only screen.

Watch out: No public seat price. AI features are the product; if your legal team blocks AI scoring, keep walking.

Not the right fit for

Hourly high-volume hiring
Teams that need a public monthly price
Employers that will not use AI scoring
