Manatal

Manatal gives you a true AI-first recruiting platform, not just an ATS. Your team gets AI Interviewer, AI Copilot, and AI Notetaker to screen, prep, and follow up on candidates faster, all backed by transparent pricing and fast, dedicated support. Freshworks has also confirmed it's discontinuing Freshteam for good, so choosing Manatal means choosing a platform built for where recruiting is headed, not where it's been.

Freshteam

Freshworks has officially confirmed Freshteam is being discontinued. Renewals stopped in March 2026, and the platform shuts down for good in April 2027. Freshteam also hasn't shipped a major AI feature in years, so you won't find tools like an AI interviewer, AI meeting notes, or an AI copilot there. Manatal gives you an actively developed, feature-rich alternative built for how recruiting works today.

The right ATS investment

Freshworks has confirmed Freshteam is being discontinued. New sign-ups have stopped, renewals ended in March 2026, and the platform shuts down for good in April 2027. If you're on Freshteam today, now's the time to plan your next move.

Manatal gives you a stable, constantly evolving platform with transparent pricing starting at only $15/user/month. You also get agentic AI tools like AI Interviewer, AI Copilot, and AI Notetaker, the kind of innovation Freshteam stopped investing in years ago.
