Recruit CRM vs ReqSpace

Same facts, side by side: starting price, free tier, MCP, API and what each one is actually built for.

Starting price

Recruit CRM

$95/user/mo Free trial

Boutique and mid-size agency ATS and CRM with hotlists, GDPR tooling and a hosted MCP, from $95 per user a month billed annually.

Where Recruit CRM fits

  • Boutique staffing agencies
  • Mid-size desks that need hotlists
  • UK and EU agencies that care about GDPR tooling
  • Teams connecting Claude or ChatGPT via MCP

ReqSpace

$59.99/user/mo Free tier

AI sourcing tool and ATS for recruiters, sourcers and agencies: it turns a job description into an editable scoring rubric, searches your talent pool, an 850M+ profile index and live web X-Ray, and scores every candidate 1 to 5 with a written reason. Sourcing agents with verified email reveals come with every paid plan. Paid plans start at $59.99/user/mo billed monthly, and the full recruiting desk starts at $89.99.

Where ReqSpace fits

  • Solo sourcers and independent recruiters priced out of LinkedIn Recruiter
  • Recruiting agencies running several clients from one account
  • Teams that want a written reason behind every candidate score
  • Desks that want sourcing, outreach and an ATS on one monthly bill

Where they pull apart

Recruit CRM

Stands out: A hosted MCP at agent.recruitcrm.io plus agency hotlists and GDPR controls.

Watch out: MCP access has to be switched on per role before an assistant can connect.

Not the right fit for

  • Corporate in-house talent teams
  • Desks that want structured hiring kits

ReqSpace

Stands out: Sourcing agents are included from the cheapest paid plan instead of sold per agent, and every score arrives with a written rationale built from a rubric you can edit. Agencies get multi-client workspaces with separate data, rubrics and careers pages per client, and everything is monthly with no annual contract.

Watch out: The free plan is a preview: 5 searches a month, only the top 10 results shown, and no contact reveals, saving or outreach. Contact reveals are capped at 250 to 1,000 a month and do not roll over, multi-client workspaces and API access need a Pro plan, and the company publishes no founder names, location or customer list and has no outside reviews yet.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need high contact volumes beyond 1,000 reveals per user a month
  • Buyers who need an established vendor with references and outside reviews

Pros and cons

Recruit CRM

  • Hosted MCP on the vendor's own domain
  • Hotlists and GDPR tooling built for agencies
  • Free trial available
  • MCP needs enabling per role
  • Not a corporate structured-hiring ATS
  • Pricing scales per seat

ReqSpace

  • AI sourcing agents included from the cheapest paid plan
  • Written rationale behind every 1 to 5 candidate score
  • Monthly billing with no annual contract
  • Free plan cannot reveal contacts, save candidates or send outreach
  • Contact reveals capped per user each month, no rollover
  • Little public detail on the company and no outside reviews yet
