Where they pull apart

Stardex

Stands out: Search-firm ATS with AI tagging, client portals, org charts, plus a remote MCP server and REST API.

Watch out: Sequences, similar-profile search, and webhooks start on Pro at $119/user/mo. Copilot, with SSO and audit logs, is custom-priced.

Not the right fit for

  • In-house TA teams that need a corporate ATS
  • Firms that need SSO on the $79 Starter plan

Vincere

Stands out: An agency CRM with a published per-user starting price and desk automation.

Watch out: Priced in pounds only, with a 12-month minimum term, and there is no MCP.

Not the right fit for
