With a CV database you pay a licence and still do the searching and screening yourself. With SOURCD, our team does that work and you pay only for the candidates you unlock.

If you have a full-time recruiter searching every day across many roles, a monthly licence can pay off.
If you hire occasionally, run a small agency, or don't have time to search and screen, paying per screened CV costs far less.
