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

Starting price

CEIPAL

Sales-quoted

US staffing ATS with vendor-management integrations and AI match scoring. Quote-based, aimed at staffing firms rather than corporate hiring.

Where CEIPAL fits

Curately is an AI recruiting platform that sources from 200M+ profiles, screens applicants by phone with its Maya voice AI and books interviews in one connected workflow. It does not publish a price, so you will need a demo and a quote. It fits staffing firms and high-volume teams that lose candidates between sourcing, screening and scheduling.

Where Curately fits

Staffing and direct sourcing firms
High-volume and healthcare hiring
Teams that want phone screening automated

Where they pull apart

CEIPAL

Stands out: Vendor-management integrations plus AI match scoring on a full desk ATS.

Watch out: No published price and no MCP.

Not the right fit for

Corporate in-house talent teams
Buyers who need a published price or MCP

Curately

Stands out: Maya, the voice AI recruiter, calls applicants within minutes, asks screening questions, handles voicemail and callbacks, and escalates to a human recruiter. Curately also says you only pay for verified contact data, and its integrations list covers staffing systems such as Bullhorn, JobDiva, Avionte, Beeline and SAP Fieldglass.

Watch out: There is no public pricing, so budgeting requires a sales conversation. Curately is not an ATS; it sits alongside your existing ATS or VMS. It has no Capterra reviews yet, so there is little independent user feedback to check.

Not the right fit for

Buyers who need a published price
Teams looking for a full ATS
Small teams wanting a self-serve plan
