Simple, transparent pricing

Yes - the Free plan is free forever. One active job, one seat, AI screening, and full security. Candidate sourcing is a Starter feature - your first month free unlocks it (and all of Starter) whenever you're ready. Your data is never deleted.

Start your first month free of Starter and you get full Starter access right away - candidate sourcing, unlimited AI screening, more roles and seats. We collect a card but charge nothing during the trial. After 30 days, it's $200/mo unless you cancel - and we email you a reminder before you're ever billed. Cancel anytime in one click from Billing & Plan.

Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time from your account settings. Upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing. Downgrades apply at the start of your next billing cycle.

No. There are no setup fees, hidden charges, or long-term contracts. You pay the monthly or annual subscription price and that's it.

VScout uses Claude AI to read every resume, extract structured data, and score candidates against your job requirements. The AI explains its reasoning for every score, so you always understand why a candidate was ranked the way they were.

Absolutely - and security is never paywalled. Every plan, including the Free plan, ships with SSO / SAML, audit log, role-based access controls, and encryption at rest and in transit. We use Supabase with Row-Level Security, SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure, and never share your data with third parties. Enterprise adds data residency options and advanced compliance controls.
