Greenhouse pricing FAQ
How much does Greenhouse cost in 2026?
Greenhouse does not publish fixed prices. ATSLab’s July 2026 research estimates annual contracts of about $6,500 for small teams, $15,000–$40,000 for mid-market teams and $70,000+ for enterprise. Confirm a current quote for your headcount and package.
What are the Greenhouse plan tiers?
Greenhouse has offered Essential, Advanced and Expert recruiting packages. Pricing and packaging are quote-based; confirm current tier names, included features and modules on the vendor pricing page and in your proposal.
Does Greenhouse charge per recruiter seat or employee?
Quotes depend on company size and package rather than a public fixed recruiter-seat price. For budget comparison only, a hypothetical $24,000 annual subscription for 200 employees and 10 recruiters equals $10 per employee per month or $200 per recruiter per month. Those are allocated costs, not Greenhouse rates.
Which Greenhouse add-ons should I budget for?
Ask for separate line items for Sourcing Automation, Onboarding, integrations and any reporting upgrades. Inclusion depends on the package; third-party services may bill separately.
How long is a Greenhouse contract and what does implementation cost?
Annual contracts are standard in ATSLab’s July 2026 research. That research estimates $2,000–$8,000 for one-time implementation, not a published vendor fee. Confirm term length, renewal increases, migration, training and integration scope in writing.
Does Greenhouse offer a free plan?
There is no ongoing free tier in our pricing research. Request a demo and confirm any trial or pilot terms with sales.
How does Greenhouse compare with Lever and Workable at similar budgets?
Compare Greenhouse with Lever for structured hiring versus talent CRM, and with Workable for a smaller-team sourcing workflow. Request quotes for the same headcount, modules and contract term, including implementation, to compare total first-year costs.
