Why people look past Oorwin

ATS, HRM and CRM are priced as separate per-user modules, so a team that needs all three pays three seat fees, and Enterprise is quote only. The Forever Free plan is capped at 5 jobs, 5 accounts and 10 contacts.

What we noted

  • HRM and CRM modules cost extra per user
  • Enterprise pricing is quote only
  • Free plan capped at 5 jobs and 10 contacts

Not the right fit for

  • Buyers wanting one bundled price for all modules
  • Enterprises needing a published Enterprise rate
  • Free users with more than 5 open jobs

Worth keeping in mind: Oorwin runs a live MCP server at mcp.oorwin.ai/mcp that connects Claude and ChatGPT to the platform, alongside public API documentation. Its Ira engine handles candidate matching and previews, and generative AI drafts emails, job descriptions and outreach.
