Where they pull apart

Manatal

Stands out: A $15 per-user start with AI ranking and browser capture included.

Watch out: MCP is Enterprise Plus only, and monthly billing is $19 rather than $15.

Not the right fit for

Small teams that need MCP below the top tier
Teams that refuse annual billing

RecrutFlo

Stands out: Flat monthly price per plan, no per-seat markup, no annual contract. Starter (€19/mo) is 2 users, 1 mailbox, 250 CV processing runs, and 500 active CV records.

Watch out: This is a CV inbox, not an ATS. Professional and Business still cap users at 5. Over-limit processing is a one-off add-on that expires at the end of the billing cycle. Prices are EUR including VAT.

Not the right fit for

US buyers who need a USD rate card and a full ATS/CRM
High-volume agencies that need more than 5 users or 5 mailboxes
