Breezy HR vs Workable

Breezy HR compared with Workable

Workable is the more capable product and the more expensive one, with stronger sourcing (a large passive candidate database), better reporting, and a broader HR suite around the ATS. Breezy is cheaper, simpler, and self-serve to the end, with unlimited users on every tier where Workable's pricing rises with employee count and adds paid modules. Small teams that want an ATS and nothing else are usually happier on Breezy; teams that need to source proactively and analyze the funnel outgrow it toward Workable.

Workable compared with Breezy HR

Breezy HR is the closest thing to Workable at a small-company price, with a genuinely free tier for one active job and a visual drag-and-drop pipeline that many users find friendlier. Breezy also bundles video interviews and texting far lower down its price list, where Workable charges $109 and $89 a month for them on Standard. Workable answers with a much larger sourcing database, deeper compliance reporting, and the full HR platform Breezy does not have. If hiring is the whole job, Breezy wins on cost; if the ATS is the front door to a people system, Workable wins.

Breezy HR

Flat monthly subscription per company, not per user and not per open role. All plans include unlimited team members; the free Bootstrap plan is limited to one active position or candidate pool, and paid plans allow unlimited positions. Tiers gate capability rather than volume. Annual billing is advertised as two months free. AI credits, SMS, Onboard, and Perform are separate add-ons.

• Bootstrap$0
• Startup$157
• Growth$273
• Business$439
• ProCustom

Per company rather than per seat is the right shape for small-business hiring, and at Startup the effective cost is well under what a single recruiter seat costs on several competitors once you have four or five people in the system. The value case is weakest at the two extremes. Below two concurrent roles the free plan is excellent and the paid plans are poor value; at the top, Business at $439 per month plus add-ons is real money for a company that still lacks a report builder and API access. The sweet spot is a 30 to 300 person employer running several openings at once with a distributed interview panel, where Growth at $273 per month replaces a spreadsheet, a scheduling tool, a video screening tool, and a reference-check habit nobody was keeping.

Workable

Flat monthly subscription banded by company headcount, not by recruiter seat: users and active jobs are unlimited within fair-use limits, and the price step is your employee count. Three published plans (Standard, Premier, Enterprise) with nine headcount bands, of which only the smallest publishes a price on the site. Annual billing saves up to 20 percent versus monthly. Workable Agent AI usage is metered separately in credits.

• Pay As You Go$99
• Standard$299
• Premier$599
• Enterprise$719

Workable is priced as an HR platform, not as an ATS, and it should be judged that way. At $299 a month for a 20-person company it costs several times what JazzHR or Breezy charge for applicant tracking alone, and if all you want is a pipeline that is a bad trade. If you would otherwise buy an ATS and a small HRIS, the arithmetic reverses quickly: onboarding, employee records, time off, time tracking, and e-signature are included in that same fee, and unlimited users means the whole company can participate without a seat conversation. The awkward middle is a company that wants the ATS plus one or two screening tools, because that buyer is pushed either into $296 a month of add-ons or up to Premier at double the price. Above 100 employees the published price disappears and Vendr contract data suggests a median around $15,000 a year, which is still small-business reachable but is a negotiated purchase rather than a self-serve one.
