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

Starting price

Continuas

$149/mo Free tier

Where they pull apart

Continuas

Stands out: It works on the inbox you already use rather than a separate sequencer: it spots stalled threads you forgot, writes the nudge the way you would, and sends bulk emails as individual messages from your own address. Two recruiting firms, VetTemps and IHC Recruiting, appear among its customers.

Watch out: Only Gmail and Outlook are named; there is no ATS or CRM integration, so follow-ups do not log back to your recruiting system. Autopilot sends on its own once switched on, and the jump from Free to Premium is a flat $149 a month.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need follow-ups logged in Bullhorn or another ATS
  • High-volume cold outreach with domain warmup

Lindy

Stands out: Lindy is one of the most mature assistants in this group: it drafts in your voice, records and follows up on meetings, connects to 1,500+ tools plus MCP, and asks before it sends, posts or updates anything.

Watch out: Every active user takes a paid seat, and credits are the real limit: when the shared pool runs dry Lindy pauses until the next cycle unless you top up at $10 per 1,000 credits. Lindy has changed its plans several times in 2026.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams looking for an ATS or sourcing database
  • Buyers who want a free tier beyond the trial
