Which fits your team?

  • Hiring run on top of a day job
  • Candidate interview booking
  • MCP tools for an existing assistant
  • Reviews opened by email link
  • A separate pipeline for each role

JazzHR fits teams that need:

  • Hiring workflows for retail, healthcare or hospitality

  • OFCCP and VEVRAA data collection

What JazzHR does well

Job distribution, unlimited users and HR integrations.

Job board distribution

Publish one job to JazzHR's free job board partners and paid sponsorships, including Indeed.

In practice: Recruiters manage distribution from one job record.

Unlimited users

Add hiring managers, executives and interviewers without a per-user fee.

In practice: A larger interview team does not increase the base subscription.

HR integrations and reporting

JazzHR connects to Paycor, UKG, ADP and background check providers. It also offers EEO and OFCCP reports.

In practice: Teams can keep their existing HR tools and required report formats.

What Kit includes

From the candidate's first link to your team's feedback.

Use Kit from your assistant

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Copilot through MCP to read candidates and act on the hiring pipeline.

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

JazzHR integrates with background check vendors including Checkr and Accurate, so checks start from the candidate profile.

Will we add it? A connector may follow customer demand. Kit does not run checks today.

Federal contractor reports

JazzHR's Pro plan (or Plus with Advanced Reporting) collects EEO, OFCCP and VEVRAA data and reports on it.

Will we add it? Not available today. Do not choose Kit if these reports are required.

HRIS and payroll connectors

JazzHR connects to HRIS and payroll providers including Paycor, UKG and ADP. Kit has no HRIS connector.

Will we add it? Individual connectors may follow customer demand; none is scheduled.
