Avery vs Talsense

Avery is a European hiring intelligence platform for finding, evaluating and contacting candidates for recruitment roles. Its maker says it searches more than 125 million vetted European professional profiles. Candidate rankings explain which role requirements match and which remain unproven, leaving selection decisions to recruiters. Market views provide salary benchmarks by role and region, talent pool estimates, hiring viability, competitor information and time-to-fill estimates. Avery drafts personalized outreach from candidate profiles and can send email through a connected Google, Outlook or IMAP account. LinkedIn messages are drafted for recruiters to send manually, while email sequences can be automated through the recruiter's own inbox. Its Screening Agent structures candidate replies into details such as compensation expectations, availability and interest. Talent Hub refreshes candidate records, builds pipelines and resurfaces past candidates for new roles. Candidate profiles are stored and enriched in the EU, and model calls run on European infrastructure, though AI processing may involve transfers outside the EEA. Free includes search and market views; Solo costs €299 a month.
