Where they pull apart

Breezy HR

Stands out: A kanban pipeline plus a sourcing extension, built for small hiring teams.

Watch out: No MCP, and it is not built for enterprise hiring processes.

Not the right fit for

Enterprise selection processes
Teams that need MCP

Happlicant

Stands out: Every seat includes AI resume parsing, a LinkedIn Chrome sourcing extension, and full ATS/CRM automation. There is no job or candidate cap below Enterprise.

Watch out: Enterprise (SSO, custom APIs, unlimited users on a flat fee) is quoted separately. A Leads Discovery add-on that feeds 10 open jobs a day is $49/user/mo on top of the seat.

Not the right fit for

In-house TA teams that need a corporate ATS, not an agency desk CRM
Firms that require SSO and a public API on the first paid plan
