Where they pull apart

Invenias

Stands out: Built for retained search: competitor mapping, profile packs, and a Microsoft 365 add-in rather than high-volume ATS.

Watch out: There is no public rate card. Power BI sits on a higher package. You are buying inside the Bullhorn family.

Not the right fit for

High-volume staffing that needs a temp ATS
Buyers who want a self-serve monthly price

Loxo

Stands out: An ATS plus a sourcing database and MCP, built for agency desks.

Watch out: The published Core price is annual billing, and the MCP URL is issued in-product.

Not the right fit for

In-house talent teams that need structured hiring kits
Buyers working to a sub-$100 per-seat budget
