Wellfound

Free + paid seats Free tier

Indeed

PPC / subscription Free tier MCP API

Why it comes up: Broad demand with remote filters.

Stands out: The board candidates actually open, with MCP and an API on top.

Watch out: Pay-per-click spend can outrun a small budget quickly, and it is not your ATS.

Best for

  • Almost every employer buying application volume
  • Teams that already live on sponsored jobs
  • Employers who want organic and paid on one board

4.5 on Capterra from 7,613 reviews

Built In

Sales-quoted

Why it comes up: Tech brand plus jobs if the company is not remote-only.

Stands out: Employer-brand pages for a tech audience rather than a bare job listing.

Watch out: No published price, and it is weak outside technology hiring.

Best for

  • Technology companies hiring in specific cities
  • Employer-brand teams in software
  • Talent teams that want a tech-specific audience
