CleverConnect vs Teamable

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

Starting price

CleverConnect

Sales-quoted

CleverConnect, which absorbed Talentry, is a European talent acquisition platform that works alongside your ATS: employee referrals with a mobile app and built-in employee advocacy, a talent CRM, career sites, campaigns, video interviews and an AI Qualify Agent that screens every applicant. It is sold in modules by quote, mainly to European employers.

Where CleverConnect fits

  • European employers running referral programs
  • Companies with deskless or frontline staff
  • Teams pairing referrals with employer brand sharing
  • Employers that want AI screening beside their ATS

Teamable

Sales-quoted

Maps employee LinkedIn networks into referral asks. Pricing is sales-quoted.

Where Teamable fits

  • TA teams whose referral programme is dead
  • Companies with large employee LinkedIn graphs
  • Enterprises that will take a quote
  • Buyers comparing Boon and Teamable

Where they pull apart

CleverConnect

Stands out: Referrals and advocacy live in one module, so employees can both refer people and share employer brand content and job ads, including deskless staff through the mobile app. One customer says referrals through CleverConnect are its second biggest hiring source after Indeed, at 30% of global applications, and the platform is ISO 27001 certified with GDPR automation built in.

Watch out: No published pricing, and it is a broad European suite, so you may be quoted for more modules than you need. It is built to complement an ATS rather than replace one, and the Talentry branded app and site still exist during the brand transition.

Not the right fit for

  • US small businesses wanting a simple referral link tool
  • Buyers who need a published price

Teamable

Stands out: Referral software that actually reads employee networks and suggests matches, not a static 'forward this job' form.

Watch out: Quote-only. LinkedIn network mapping will be a legal and comms review. This is not a $99/mo widget.

Not the right fit for

  • SMBs that need a simple referral form
  • Teams that will not connect LinkedIn
  • Buyers who need a public price

Pros and cons

CleverConnect

  • Referrals and advocacy in one module
  • Mobile app reaches deskless staff
  • AI screening of every applicant

Teamable

  • Network mapping rather than a dead referral inbox
  • Match suggestions from employee LinkedIn graphs
  • Aimed at programmes that already failed once
  • Quote-only
  • No published integrations list
  • LinkedIn access is a political sale
