Workflow steps to evaluate
The first three on this page
Ordered by category fit and the evidence we hold, not by a score.
A recruitment marketing platform rather than a site builder: answer-engine and search optimisation, content automation and visit tracking tied to named CRM contacts, with the website as the front end. Generate and preview it for nothing and pay only when you publish, at a published monthly price in a quote-only category. Confirm your CRM first — Firefish, JobAdder, Loxo and Atlas are live, and Bullhorn is still roadmap.
Modern HRIS with hiring, onboarding, compensation, and culture tools.

Tools to compare for Recruitment Marketing
A recruitment marketing platform the vendor positions as replacing a CMS, a landing-page builder and a marketing stack. AI site generation on recruitment themes with a visual editor, custom domain and managed SSL and unlimited pages sit alongside the parts that make it marketing rather than web hosting: answer-engine and search optimisation with sitemap, robots, structured data, llms.txt and Search Console, content automation, and tracking that ties site visits back to individual contact records in the connected CRM. Building, editing and previewing are free; payment starts when the site is published.
