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

Bullhorn

$99/user/mo

Where they pull apart

Bullhorn

Stands out: Staffing CRM plus a marketplace of more than 300 partners on Core.

Watch out: Only the two small-agency tiers are published. AI, automation and analytics all sit behind a quote.

Not the right fit for

  • In-house tech talent teams that want structured hiring
  • Teams that need MCP today

Recruit Wizard

Stands out: Agencies get CRM, ATS, native e-signing, SMS and email campaigns and reporting from one Australian vendor, plus RatesCalc for Fair Work award rates. Its AI writes adverts, builds shortlists and summarizes calls and emails, showing its reasoning so consultants can override it.

Watch out: No price appears until you submit your details, and even then it is an indicative AUD estimate that excludes tax and separately scoped implementation. AI Candidate Matches for Jobs only entered early access in October 2025.

Not the right fit for

  • Buyers needing a published USD price
  • Teams wanting month-to-month core plans
  • Buyers who want pricing without a sales call
