Beyond its intuitive Applicant Tracking System and recruitment CRM, Manatal features a built-in AI Interviewer and AI Notetaker, allowing teams to automate meeting transcription and candidate screening. You can explore Manatal's core capabilities with a 14-day free trial.

Bullhorn

While Manatal offers transparent, affordable pricing, Bullhorn uses a non-public cost structure with tiered plans and add-ons that quickly inflate expenses. Bullhorn lacks Manatal’s key features such as candidate scorecards and detailed AI insights. Furthermore, their lack of a free trial requires a commitment without a hands-on test, highlighting a clear functionality gap.

The right ATS investment

Bullhorn's pricing structure remains undisclosed, encompassing a variety of plans and add-ons that can substantially escalate your expenses.

According to third-party sources, its plans start at “$99/month/user”, not including features like the vendor portal which comes at an extra cost. In contrast, Manatal is a feature-rich alternative at a fraction of the cost. For only $15/user/month, users get a comprehensive platform including a vendor portal, candidate scorecards, and much more. Manatal also offers cutting-edge capabilities like our AI Interviewer and AI Notetaker, and it is the world's first ATS with MCP Server support.
