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

Breezy HR

  • Kanban pipeline built for small teams
  • Browser sourcing extension
  • 14-day free trial with no card

Happlicant

  • Published $69/user/mo quarterly rate with unlimited jobs and candidates
  • AI resume parser and LinkedIn Chrome extension included on the seat

  • SSO and custom APIs wait for a quoted Enterprise plan
  • Leads Discovery is a $49/user/mo add-on, not in the base seat
  • Per-user pricing grows linearly until you hit the flat-fee Enterprise deal
