Where they pull apart

Keeyora

Stands out: SmartDraft writes texts in your voice, and you can message from any webpage with a dedicated number.

Watch out: There is no public rate card. You still need an ATS to import candidates in one click.

Not the right fit for

  • Shops that want a published per-seat SMS price
  • Teams with no ATS to import from

Sense

Stands out: SMS as the primary channel rather than an afterthought bolted onto email.

Watch out: Packages start at $500 a month, and it is the wrong shape for executive or professional search.

Not the right fit for

  • Executive search
  • Small professional-hire teams with no texting programme
