Daxtra vs RefineCV

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

Starting price

Daxtra

Sales-quoted

Daxtra is multilingual resume and job parsing plus Talent Flow agentic sourcing, matching, and screening. Plans are sales-quoted. Strattam Capital took a majority stake in 2023. The brand stays independent.

Where Daxtra fits

  • Staffing firms whose native CRM search is too slow on large resume piles
  • Enterprises that need high-accuracy multilingual parsing into an existing ATS
  • TA teams buying agentic sourcing/matching without ripping out Bullhorn or Workday
  • Partners who want parsing as a component rather than a full recruiting suite

RefineCV

$0.25/CV Free tier Free trial

CV formatting tool for recruitment agencies that still rebuild candidate CVs in Word before sending them to clients. It reformats any resume into your branded template in about 10 seconds, starts with 10 free CVs, then costs $0.40 per CV or $50 a month for 200, with unlimited seats and every feature on every plan.

Where RefineCV fits

  • Small and midsize agencies sending branded CVs to clients
  • Desks where consultants spend time reformatting resumes in Word
  • Agencies that want per CV pricing without per seat fees

Where they pull apart

Daxtra

Stands out: Parsing and semantic match in 40+ languages, wired into 400+ ATS/CRM and job-board connections, with Talent Flow adding agentic source-match-screen and engagement (SMS, voice, video).

Watch out: There is no public rate card. Implementation sits on top of the ATS or CRM you already run. This is not a replacement ATS.

Not the right fit for

  • SMBs that want a $50/mo all-in-one ATS with careers site
  • Buyers who need a credit-card plan table before talking to sales

RefineCV

Stands out: Pricing is published and per CV rather than per seat: $0.25 a CV on Pro and $0.40 pay as you go, with no contract, where several CV formatting rivals are quote only or charge per user. Template builds and edits are free, including sending your existing Word or PDF template for the team to rebuild.

Watch out: It works on files rather than inside your ATS, so consultants export the CV, format it and upload it back unless your ATS vendor licenses the engine. Batch processing is on request rather than built in, and the vendor says it does not hold ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification, which larger clients may ask for.

Not the right fit for

  • Enterprise staffing firms that require ISO 27001 or SOC 2
  • Teams wanting formatting to run inside the ATS automatically
  • Agencies that need CVs translated into other languages

Pros and cons

Daxtra

  • 40+ language parsing and match on top of the ATS you already pay for
  • Talent Flow agentic sourcing, matching, and screening in one vendor
  • Long-running specialist (since 2002) rather than a new chatbot ATS
  • Sales-quoted. No self-serve SKU
  • You still need an ATS or CRM. Daxtra is the intelligence layer
  • Capterra score is 3.6 from 32 reviews, below typical ATS leaders

RefineCV

  • 10 free CVs with no card and no expiry
  • Unlimited seats and every feature on every plan
  • Free template builds and edits
  • No direct ATS connector for most users
  • Batch processing only on request
  • No ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification

What each one costs

Daxtra

Sales-quoted

Daxtra does not publish plan prices. Parsing, search/match, and Talent Flow are quoted after a demo. The product layers onto existing ATS and CRM systems rather than replacing them. Confirm current terms on the vendor site.
