How recruitment software pricing works for small agencies

Bullhorn pricing for small recruitment agencies starts at A$99 per user per month with the Starter plan. Pricing scales across three tiers: Bullhorn Starter, Bullhorn Core (A$165/user/month), and Bullhorn Pro (custom pricing). Each tier builds on the one before it, so you start with what you need and add capabilities as your agency grows. Even at the entry level, Starter is a complete ATS with CV parsing, candidate management, job posting with a career portal, email sync, mass mailing, and performance reports. No setup fees. No hidden costs. All prices exclude applicable sales tax.

Frequently asked questions

Bullhorn pricing for small recruitment agencies starts at A$99 per user per month with the Starter plan. Four tiers are available: Bullhorn Starter (A$99/user/month), with applicant tracking, resume parsing, and client management included. Bullhorn Core (A$165/user/month) is the flexible foundation for small, growing teams, adding the app marketplace, LinkedIn integration, and custom workflows.

Bullhorn Max (custom pricing) is Bullhorn’s agentic AI tier, adding omni-channel candidate engagement, agentic screening, and automated AI matching on top of Pro. Each tier builds on the one before it, so you start with what you need and add capabilities as your agency grows. See Bullhorn’s full product range.

Bullhorn’s Starter plan is a complete applicant tracking system, not a limited trial. It includes CV parsing, candidate management, job posting with a career portal, applicant tracking, email and calendar sync (Outlook and Gmail), mass mailing and performance reports. Live expert support is included in every tier.

Yes. Bullhorn Starter costs A$99 per user per month and covers the ATS essentials for agencies that are starting out.

Each tier includes everything from the tier below it.

Yes, Bullhorn pricing is per user, per month. You only pay for the users you need, and you can add users as your team grows without changing plans or migrating data.

Bullhorn Core (A$165/user/month) includes everything in Bullhorn Starter (A$99/user/month) and adds the app marketplace (300+ partners), custom fields and workflows, LinkedIn integrations, and the Bullhorn email sidebar. Bullhorn Starter covers the essentials: applicant tracking, resume parsing, client management, job posting with a career portal, and expert support. Both plans include free implementation, and your data carries forward if you upgrade.

Bullhorn Max is Bullhorn’s newest small agency tier, sitting above Pro. It adds Amplify’s agentic workflows on top of everything in Pro: omni-channel candidate engagement, agentic screening, agentic AI matching, agentic data enrichment, multi-step AI outreach, a website chatbot, interview scheduling, and consultant services. Max is custom priced and, unlike Starter, Core, and Pro, does not include free implementation.

No. Bullhorn Pro and Bullhorn Max use custom pricing, so you request a quote instead of picking from a published rate. Bullhorn Starter (A$99/user/month) and Bullhorn Core (A$165/user/month) have set per-user prices. Bullhorn Pro includes free implementation. For Bullhorn Max, implementation is scoped as part of your quote and isn’t included at no cost. Get a quote to see pricing for your agency.

No. Pricing is per user per month and excludes VAT. Marketplace access is included from Bullhorn Core onward. AI search and match is included in Bullhorn Pro and Bullhorn Max. Starter, Core, and Pro include free implementation, Max does not. Onboarding remains optional, is priced separately, and is not required to use the platform.

Yes. Every Bullhorn plan runs on the same platform. You can start with Bullhorn Starter and move to Bullhorn Core, Pro, or Max as your agency grows. Your data, workflows, and candidate records all carry forward. No re-implementation. No lost history.

Bullhorn does not currently offer a free trial. You can book a demo to see the platform in action and get a walkthrough tailored to your agency. Bullhorn Starter at A$99/user/month is designed to get small agencies operational within days, with guided setup and live expert support included.

Agencies using Bullhorn report 24% more placements per recruiter and 28% more jobs filled. Bullhorn has focused exclusively on staffing for 26 years and supports 10,000+ agencies globally.

Bullhorn includes free implementation with Bullhorn Starter, Core, and Pro, its three small agency pricing tiers. Bullhorn Max, Bullhorn’s agentic AI tier, is quoted separately, and implementation for Max is scoped as part of that quote rather than included at no cost.

Bullhorn runs on one platform at every tier, so you start with a complete ATS and add capabilities as you grow, without switching systems. Bullhorn Starter is a full applicant tracking system at A$99 per user per month, with resume parsing, candidate and client management, and job posting. Marketplace integrations come with Bullhorn Core, and a full recruitment CRM, AI search and match, and Amplify Chat come with Bullhorn Pro. Many tools at similar entry prices are stripped-back trials, and when you outgrow their limits you face a costly data migration. With Bullhorn, your data, workflows, and records carry forward at every step, so you add features without starting over.

Yes. Live expert support is included in every Bullhorn plan, from Bullhorn Starter to Bullhorn Max. Bullhorn Starter is designed to get small agencies operational within days, with guided setup included. Bullhorn Pro adds a dedicated account manager, and Bullhorn Max includes everything in Pro.
