The short answer

  • Breezy HR : Breezy centers on a visual pipeline, while GoHire bills a flat fee by active jobs with unlimited members on every plan. From $157/mo
  • Zoho Recruit : Zoho Recruit is a broader recruiting CRM, while GoHire is a lighter job-slot ATS starting at $83/mo. From $25/user/mo

Why people look past GoHire

Starter caps you at 3 active jobs and every plan at 10 SMS a month, and the Plus+ upgrade to 1,000 AI matches and 500 SMS has no published dollar price. Prices load in GBP by default, so switch to USD before comparing.

What we noted

  • Starter capped at 3 jobs and 25 AI matches
  • Plus+ upgrade has no published price
  • Only 10 SMS a month without Plus+

Not the right fit for

  • Teams needing over 10 jobs below Pro pricing
  • Buyers who need a published API
  • High-volume SMS outreach on base plans

Worth keeping in mind: Seats are never the meter: Starter, Growth and Pro all include unlimited members and differ only by active jobs (3, 10 or unlimited) and AI matches (25, 50 or 100 a month). Registered charities get 30 percent off any plan.
