3 tools our write-ups put next to Recruiter Copilot, with starting price, free tier, MCP and API side by side.

Recruiter Copilot from $9/moFree tier

The short answer

  • Juicebox : Searches its own 800M+ profile index in plain language from $99/seat/mo, if you want to find candidates rather than score the ones you are already viewing. From $99/mo
  • hireEZ : Open-web sourcing with contact data and outreach sequences built in, if you need the follow-up after the match. From $494/mo
  • ContactOut : LinkedIn Chrome extension that reveals emails and phone numbers, the contact step Recruiter Copilot leaves out. From $99/mo

Why people look past Recruiter Copilot

It is a young product, with 216 Chrome users and four store ratings in October 2026. It finds no emails or phone numbers and sends nothing, so a contact finder and outreach tool are still needed. The Chrome store listing says evaluations sync to your account on the vendor's side, so read the privacy policy before screening for sensitive roles.

What we noted

  • No contact data, outreach or ATS export
  • Very small user base so far
  • Free plan caps deep checks at 25

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need contact data or outreach sequences in the same tool
  • Buyers who want scored candidates pushed into an ATS
  • Recruiters who source mostly outside LinkedIn

Worth keeping in mind: It scores the profiles you are already looking at, on free LinkedIn, Recruiter Lite or Recruiter Corporate alike, and checks each one against every job description you have loaded, so a profile opened for one role can surface as a fit for another. Each deep check ends in a plain Shortlist, Consider or Pass call.

What each one does differently

Juicebox

$99/mo Free tier Free trial MCP

Why it comes up: Searches its own 800M+ profile index in plain language from $99/seat/mo, if you want to find candidates rather than score the ones you are already viewing.

Stands out: Natural-language search plus a Chrome extension and 50+ ATS connectors.

Watch out: The Agents add-on costs extra on top of the seat price.

Best for

  • Sourcers who hate Boolean
  • Agencies on a few seats
  • Teams pushing shortlists into Greenhouse or Ashby

hireEZ

$494/mo 7 day free trial API

Why it comes up: Open-web sourcing with contact data and outreach sequences built in, if you need the follow-up after the match.

Stands out: Open-web sourcing plus sequences and contact data in one outbound product.

Watch out: No MCP, and $494/mo is a real floor, so this is not an SMB finder.

Best for

  • Outbound talent teams sourcing beyond LinkedIn
  • Desks that want sequences with the sourcer
  • Buyers who will start on a seven-day trial
