Sprad is a web-based AI workspace for hiring and talent management, with tools for recruiting and employee development. Its shared Talent Base uses profiles that people can keep current; Sprad says its modules read and enrich those profiles. Atlas searches profiles, drafts outreach, screens applicants, conducts voice interviews and ranks candidates against role criteria. The Growth platform covers performance reviews, 360° feedback, 1:1 meetings, career paths, skills, surveys and OKR tracking. AI prepares and suggests work, while people make decisions; Sprad says it does not automate rejections. Ratings link to supporting evidence, and people can release profile data item by item or withdraw access. Its free core includes unlimited roles, pipeline, pool and search, while web-wide sourcing requires membership and AI actions use credits. Listed prices include €0.10 per screening, €6 per interview and active sourcing from €300/mo. Sprad lists recruiting teams, agencies and companies using referrals or employee-growth tools among its audiences.
