₹1,199/user/mo Free tier API
Why it comes up: Another regional AI recruiter with an ATS built in, focused on India, adding AI phone screens and posting prices from ₹1,199/user/mo instead of quotes.
Stands out: One product covers database matching, AI phone screens, scored video interviews and the ATS that holds the pipeline, and a single recruiter can use all of it free. Every call comes back with a recording, a transcript and an answer to each question, and every interview score carries a written justification.
Watch out: It is built for India: calls are in Indian English, prices are rupee-only and the screening flow asks about notice periods. AI calling has to be switched on by the vendor for each organisation, call minutes cost extra in credits, and the testimonials on the site are anonymous, with no outside reviews yet.
Best for
- Staffing and IT recruitment agencies hiring in India
- Recruiters sitting on a large resume database they rarely search
- Teams that want first-round phone screens done without dialling

$15/user/mo 14 day free trial MCP API
Why it comes up: A self serve ATS with AI candidate recommendations at a published $15/user/mo, for teams that want software only and no services contract.
Stands out: A $15 per-user start with AI ranking and browser capture included.
Watch out: MCP is Enterprise Plus only, and monthly billing is $19 rather than $15.
Best for
- Small in-house teams
- Boutique agencies
- Desks that live in Chrome while sourcing

€95/seat/mo Free tier MCP API
Why it comes up: AI sourcing agent with a free plan and euro seat pricing from €95/seat/mo, plus WhatsApp outreach, if you want sourcing without the staffing services.
Stands out: Lookalike search: give Sherlock one great hire and it finds people like them, running 10+ parallel searches and analysing up to 2,000 profiles per run. One tool covers search, an AI job board that posts to 25+ boards and scores applicants, and bulk outreach to 100 candidates at once. It now runs MCP on both sides of the market: recruiter MCP access on Pro, and a free Watson MCP that lets candidates search 40M+ jobs from ChatGPT or Claude.
Watch out: It is a French product: euro only pricing, a French first website, and a customer list that is mostly French firms, so US coverage depth is unproven. ATS integration, searching your own ATS and LinkedIn network, and recruiter API and MCP access are Pro add ons with no published price; the free Watson MCP is for job seekers, not for sourcing. There are no outside reviews yet.
Best for
- Recruitment agencies and IT services firms hiring in France and wider Europe
- Recruiters who want to search from a brief or an ideal profile instead of Boolean strings
- Teams that reach candidates on WhatsApp as well as email
