In their own words
Role.so
Role.so is a web platform for recruiting teams to create personalised candidate pages, collect applicant responses and track engagement. AI can draft eight structured sections from role and company details, with an optional job description as input. Drafts stay editable and require review and edits before publication. Candidate pages can use a visitor’s name, role and company to personalise the experience. Teams can track visits, clicks, conversions, traffic sources and decline reasons, and collect application and decline responses. AI-assisted resume analysis can be used alongside application details. Branding options include 12 ready-to-use colour themes, custom themes, own-domain publishing and white-label controls. Candidate-facing pages support Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish. Growth and Scale support webhooks; Starter does not. Redirecting interested candidates to Calendly, Workable, Greenhouse or another ATS means their information is not saved on Role.so. Plans start at $15 a month, with a 7-day trial; there is no free plan.
Sense
Sense is recruiting automation software for talent acquisition and staffing teams. Its AI Recruiter uses specialized agents for sourcing, candidate engagement, screening, and scheduling across the hiring lifecycle. Teams can communicate with candidates by SMS, WhatsApp, email, chat, and voice, and arrange interviews with calendar integrations, reminders, and in-person, virtual, panel, or sequential formats. Sense says it integrates with customers’ ATS and describes a bi-directional integration; named connections include Workday, Greenhouse, Oracle, iCIMS, and others. The platform is available on the web, Android, and iOS, through an API, and as an extension. Sense says dashboard and API traffic use TLS encryption and stored data uses AES-256; it also describes annual security assessments and configurable multi-factor authentication. Plans start at $500/mo, with separate packages for messaging, scheduling, staffing, AI recruiting, and talent acquisition. Enterprise staffing pricing is available by request.
