- A specialist to guide implementation
What Pinpoint does well
Vendor certifications, multiple career sites and guided setup.
Privacy controls and certifications
Pinpoint holds ISO 27001, ISO 42001 and SOC 2 Type II and hosts data in London, Dublin and Amsterdam. It supports per-region retention periods, consent collection and a careers-site privacy policy.
In practice: Your privacy team can review the vendor's reports and configured retention rules.
Career sites for multiple brands
Build distinct, multilingual career sites for subsidiaries and collect applications in one ATS.
In practice: Each employer brand can have its own pages without a separate hiring system.
Guided implementation
Pinpoint provides a dedicated implementation specialist, a customer success manager and in-app support.
In practice: A specialist helps map your existing process into the tool.
What Kit includes
From the candidate's first link to your team's feedback.
Use Kit from your assistant
Both tools offer an MCP server. Kit's covers hiring, security and training; Outreach tools need the Outreach add-on.
Tool labels show which actions read data, are destructive or contact someone.
A candidate portal without passwords
Candidates open an email link to book interviews, complete assignments and read offers.
Candidates have no password to remember and take no paid seat.
Candidates book their interviews
Candidates pick a slot from your team's Google Calendar availability. Kit creates the Google Meet link with the booking.
The calendar event and meeting link are ready when the candidate books.
A pipeline for each role
Start with a role template: a GitHub assignment for engineers, a portfolio review for designers or a recorded answer. Edit the stages as needed.
You start from a working process instead of designing one between meetings.
What Kit doesn't have
Check these limits before choosing Kit.
Background checks
Pinpoint offers background checks inside its ATS. Kit runs no checks and has no screening connector.
Will we add it? Not planned. You can attach a check result to an application note.
Enterprise HRIS connectors
Pinpoint connects to systems including SAP SuccessFactors and Workday. Kit has no HRIS connector.
Will we add it? No connector is scheduled. Kit's offer acceptance webhook can support a custom handover.
Multiple employer brands
Pinpoint runs separately branded career sites from one ATS. Each Kit account gets one career site and one brand.
Will we add it? Multiple brands within one account are not planned.
How each works
The difference in day-to-day use.
One brand, self-serve setup
Kit gives a small team one career site and templates for each role. Setup is self-serve, and candidates book interviews and submit assignments through their portal.
Multiple brands, guided setup
Pinpoint manages hiring across employer brands, with career site controls and a guided implementation. A specialist helps configure the system before the team starts using it.
