The short answer

  • Recruit Signals : Hiring signal lead generation for agencies from €99/mo, cheaper if you only need leads and not candidate matching or MPC campaigns. From €99/mo
  • LoneScale : Job change and buying signal alerts from $160/mo, aimed at B2B prospecting broadly rather than recruiting firms. From $160/mo
  • Agency Leads : Verified staffing agency job leads updated daily from $486/mo, a managed lead feed instead of software that works your own database. From $486/mo

Why people look past SplendUp

The job board data leans toward Europe (InfoJobs sits next to Indeed and Glassdoor) and the company is small with its About page still marked coming soon. Core includes only 200 verified phone numbers, and there are no outside reviews yet.

What we noted

  • Only 200 verified phone numbers on Core
  • Few named ATS integrations on the site
  • Young company with no outside reviews

Not the right fit for

  • In-house talent teams with no BD function
  • Teams that need heavy phone data on the base plan

Worth keeping in mind: It starts from your unplaced candidates rather than a lead list: AI matches them to live and past jobs, then builds anonymised CVs and a pitch to the right hiring manager. The Splendid plan can be priced on leads or placements generated instead of seats.

What each one does differently

Why it comes up: Hiring signal lead generation for agencies from €99/mo, cheaper if you only need leads and not candidate matching or MPC campaigns.

Stands out: The feed is for agency BD: companies that look in-market to hire, not a candidate database and not an ATS.

Watch out: No USD prices. This is not Signals the ATS (recruitwithsignals.com). Unused-lead and market-coverage rules sit on the euro pricing page.

Best for

  • EU and UK staffing desks hunting in-market hiring-manager leads
  • Agency BD teams that want signals instead of a job-board harvest
  • Owners comparing a €99/mo signal feed with Agency Leads at $486/mo

LoneScale

$160/mo

Why it comes up: Job change and buying signal alerts from $160/mo, aimed at B2B prospecting broadly rather than recruiting firms.

Stands out: Every plan includes unlimited users, waterfall enrichment across 30+ sources, and API, CLI, and MCP access, with native Salesforce and HubSpot push.

Watch out: Signup credits (100) are a test allotment, not a timed product trial. Job-posting hiring-intent signals start on Growth, not Starter. Mobile phones consume credits much faster than emails (about 220 mobiles per 2,000 credits).

Best for

  • RevOps teams that hate per-seat data tools
  • Salesforce or HubSpot orgs that want job-change alerts in CRM
  • GTM engineers who will call the API, CLI, or MCP

Agency Leads

$486/mo

Why it comes up: Verified staffing agency job leads updated daily from $486/mo, a managed lead feed instead of software that works your own database.

Stands out: The ICP is staffing-agency supply (who is hiring contractors through agencies), the opposite of Vente AI's employer hiring-manager contacts.

Watch out: $486/mo is a lead subscription, not an ATS. Unused-lead and territory rules sit on the vendor page. This will not source candidates.

Best for

  • Staffing BD teams that sell into other agencies or MSP supply chains
  • Owners comparing a $486/mo verified feed with Recruit Signals at €99/mo
  • Desks already in Bullhorn or Vincere that need daily job-lead fuel
