About Greenhouse
Greenhouse is an applicant tracking system known for structured hiring: interview plans, kits and scorecards that push hiring teams to assess every candidate against the same criteria. It covers job posting, sourcing and a candidate CRM, scheduling, offers, reporting and analytics, and it has added AI features such as an interview notetaker, talent matching, fraud and spam detection, and an MCP connection for AI assistants. Its integration marketplace is one of the largest in recruiting, and Greenhouse Onboarding is available for new-hire workflows. Plans are Core, Plus and Pro, priced by quote based on company size. It runs in the browser with iOS and Android apps. It suits companies hiring steadily at scale; smaller companies may find it expensive and more process than they need, and reporting beyond the standard set can require the higher tiers.
Best for: Mid-sized and large companies that want consistent, structured hiring at scale.
