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

Talin

Stands out: Flip the same engine from recruiting candidates to pitching most-placeable candidates at hiring managers.

Watch out: Credits cover phones, emails, and sends. SMS automation starts on Plus. Prices are per user in USD.

Not the right fit for

In-house TA that does not sell to hiring managers
Teams that want a cheap data-only credit pack
