What each one does differently

Teamtailor

Quote-based MCP API

Why it comes up: Career-site-first European ATS if you need more mid-market CRM.

Stands out: An employer-brand career site that does not look like a default ATS page.

Watch out: Built for in-house European hiring rather than agency desks, and the MCP server is an add-on rather than part of every plan.

Best for

  • European mid-market in-house talent teams
  • Teams whose career site is the product
  • Desks that want employee advocacy on jobs

Breezy HR

$157/mo Free tier API

Why it comes up: Visual small-business ATS if kanban matters more than brand.

Stands out: A kanban pipeline plus a sourcing extension, built for small hiring teams.

Watch out: No MCP, and it is not built for enterprise hiring processes.

Best for

  • Small hiring teams that want a visual pipeline
  • A first ATS after a spreadsheet
  • Desks that source in the browser

Dover

Free ATS, paid sourcing Free tier API

Why it comes up: Free startup ATS if you are not ready to pay for slots.

Stands out: A real free tier rather than a countdown trial, with job distribution included.

Watch out: Sourcing is sold separately, and there is no MCP.

Best for

  • Early-stage startups
  • Teams that need a free tracker today
  • Founders posting a handful of roles

JOIN

€17/job/mo 14 day free trial API

Why it comes up: EU multi-posting plus a light ATS if distribution is the job.

Stands out: Multi-posting priced by the job rather than by the seat, so every interviewer can sit in the tool at no extra cost.

Watch out: Paid board placements are bought on top of the plan, self-serve tiers stop at 15 active jobs, and the API, Zapier and Make are Advanced only.

Best for

  • European small businesses that need multi-posting
  • Teams that think in roles rather than seats
  • Hiring panels that want every interviewer in the tool without buying seats
