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

HeroHunt

Quote Free trial

Autonomous AI recruiter for outbound sourcing and outreach, with natural-language search and MCP. No public price; the trial is eight days.

Juicebox

Where they pull apart

HeroHunt

Watch out: Outbound only (it does not handle inbound screening), and there is no published seat price.

Not the right fit for

  • Buyers who need a public seat price today

Juicebox

Stands out: Natural-language search plus a Chrome extension and 50+ ATS connectors.

Watch out: The Agents add-on costs extra on top of the seat price.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need Juicebox to be the ATS
  • Buyers who only want a cheap email finder
