Head to head

RecruiterClaw vs SeekOut

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

RecruiterClaw puts four Slack specialists on a recruiting desk that share one memory. The license is $600 per month plus about $100 for the Claude subscription you own. All-in is described as about $700 a month, with a one-time onboarding fee settled on the call.

Where RecruiterClaw fits

  • Independent recruiters and small desks that live in Slack and will bring their own Claude login
  • Owners who want desk memory that does not walk out when a coordinator quits
  • BD-minded recruiters using MPC campaigns from one resume
  • Desks comparing all-in ~$700/mo against a coordinator hire

SeekOut

$149/mo 14 day free trial

Enterprise talent graph with diversity and internal-mobility filters. Recruit Core starts at $149/mo with a 14-day trial, no card.

Where SeekOut fits

  • Corporate talent teams on hard-to-find roles
  • Diversity-focused search teams
  • Organisations that want internal mobility next to external search
  • Buyers who will start on a 14-day trial

Where they pull apart

RecruiterClaw

Stands out: Your work stays on your Claude account. RecruiterClaw does not meter AI tokens. Sourcing and contact enrichment is the one allowance, because verified contact data costs money.

Watch out: This is not an ATS. Delete, merge, and archive still happen in your ATS or CRM. Founding-client pricing is confirmed on a call. MPC Builder enrichment sits on an Intelligence add-on.

Not the right fit for

  • In-house TA teams that need an ATS, not a Slack staff
  • Buyers who will not pay a separate Claude subscription

SeekOut

Stands out: Diversity and internal-mobility filters on a very large people graph, plus MCP.

Watch out: AI screening is a paid add-on rather than included.

Not the right fit for

  • Small desks that need a $50 Chrome finder
  • Agencies that want a cheap ATS

Pros and cons

  • Founding price and onboarding fee are finished on a call
  • Not a replacement for Greenhouse-class pipeline of record

  • Public $149/mo Recruit Core
  • 14-day trial, no card
  • Diversity and mobility filters
  • AI screening is a paid add-on
  • Not a small-business price
