Pricing

Start free. Scale with credits. No hire fees, ever.

Every account starts with a $25 starter credit — no card on file. Move to Pro for a $100 monthly credit grant, or Growth for $300. You only pay for the actions that matter: screening, reveals, invites.

TL;DR

Raffi pricing has three tiers — Free ($0 with $25 starter credit), Pro ($199/mo, 1 sourced job + $100 credits), and Growth ($599/mo, 5 sourced jobs + $300 credits). BYO jobs (you bring candidates from LinkedIn URLs, CSV, or your ATS) are always free. Sourced jobs — where Raffi distributes the role to LinkedIn / Indeed / Google + headhunts from a 200M-person pool — unlock at $99 per job.

Per-action credits cover the variable costs of running real interviews: $0.45/min for screening calls, $0.30 for an email reveal, $1.50 for email + mobile. There are no placement fees, no percentage-of-salary cuts, and no hire fees. The traditional contingent recruiter charges 15-25% of first-year salary (roughly $13K-$22K per mid-level hire per SHRM), against an industry-average cost-per-hire of just $4,700 (SHRM 2024 Talent Acquisition Benchmarking). Most teams reduce hiring cost by 60-80% in the first quarter on Raffi.

The math

How Raffi pricing compares to a contingent recruiter.

The simplest way to think about Raffi vs. a placement-fee recruiter.

A contingent recruiter typically takes 15-25% of first-year base salary as a placement fee. On a $90,000 mid-level role, that's $13,500-$22,500 paid the day you hire — even if the recruiter sourced one candidate and you reached the other four through your own ATS. The model exists because external recruiters control candidate ownership at the moment of offer; that's where their leverage lives. Raffi sits one layer earlier in the funnel — the screening layer — so we never need that leverage.

What you actually pay on Raffi.

Three line items: your monthly plan, sourced-job unlocks ($99 per job, only if you choose to distribute beyond your own candidate list), and per-action credits (call minutes, contact reveals, invite emails). Most Pro customers spend $250-$400 per hire all-in across plan + credits — versus the industry-average cost-per-hire of $4,700 reported by SHRM (SHRM Talent Acquisition Benchmarking 2024) and the $13K-$22K typically paid for a contingent placement (LinkedIn Talent Solutions).

BYO vs sourced — the mental model.

A BYO job (Bring Your Own candidates) is a job container in Raffi where you upload the applicants — LinkedIn URL list, CSV from your ATS, paste, or résumé drop. Raffi runs the structured AI interview on each one and ranks them. BYO is always free; you only pay per-action credits for the interviews + reveals you choose to run. A sourced job($99 per unlock, or covered by Pro/Growth allotment) is one Raffi actively distributes to LinkedIn, Indeed, Google for Jobs, and headhunts from a 200M-person pool. Both flows feed into the same review queue and the same ranked shortlist. Most teams start a job as BYO and promote it to sourced once they've worked the warm pile.

Which plan fits which team.

Freeworks for one-off hires — solo founders, fractional CTOs, anyone running a single search per quarter. The $25 starter credit covers roughly 55 minutes of screening calls or 83 email reveals — enough to interview your warmest applicants and see Raffi's output on a real role.

Pro at $199/mo is built for ongoing hiring — agencies, recruiting consultants, and any company hiring 1-5 roles per quarter. The $100 monthly grant typically covers 220 minutes of screening interviews or 333 email reveals — enough to fully screen a sourced role end-to-end without buying additional credits. Pro includes 1 sourced job/mo ($99 value), 10 team seats, and the read-only webhook API for ATS integrations.

Growth at $599/mo is for high-volume hiring — in-house TA teams, RPO providers, and companies hiring 5+ roles per month. The $300 monthly grant covers full screening for 5+ sourced roles. Growth includes 5 sourced jobs/mo ($495 value), unlimited team seats, white-label custom domain, priority queue, SSO/SAML/SCIM, audit logs, and the read+write webhook API. Net-effective cost per sourced job on Growth is roughly $20 (after the included credits + sourced allotment), the lowest per-role price tier in agentic AI recruiting.

What credits actually buy.

One credit equals one US dollar — no volume discounts, no opaque pricing. A 10-minute AI screening call costs $4.50; the same interview run through a human recruiter at $50/hr fully-loaded costs $8.33 plus the recruiter's 6-hour rolling availability constraint. A verified email reveal costs $0.30; a comparable LinkedIn Recruiter seat runs $10,800/yr and caps your monthly InMail credits. Email reveals on Raffi automatically refund if the address hard-bounces inside 7 days, so reveal cost is effectively variable-on-success.

Where Raffi pricing sits in the market.

Most AI-recruiting tools price one of three ways: per-seat (HireVue, Modern Hire — $5K-$50K/yr committed), per-interview ($25-$120 per interview), or per-hire (the legacy contingent model at 15-25% of salary). Raffi is the only one that charges per-action on a $1 = 1 credit basis with no commitment, no per-seat cap, and no hire fees. That makes it cheaper for low-volume hiring (you pay only what you use) and cheaper for high-volume hiring (the per-screen cost is fixed, not per-seat scaled). The pricing canon was locked in May 2026 (Pricing v3) after 11 months of model iteration; the no-hire-fee promise is permanent.

FAQ

Pricing questions, answered.

Do I pay anything when I make a hire?

No. Raffi is SaaS — you pay your monthly plan plus per-action credits (screening, reveals, invites). No placement fees, no percentage of salary, no hire fees. The candidate becomes yours the moment you reveal them.

What happens when my $25 starter credit runs out?

You hit a soft gate inside the product. You can top up à la carte ($1 = 1 credit, never expires) or move to Pro for the $100 monthly credit grant. We never auto-bill — you have to opt in.

Do my monthly credits expire?

Yes — Pro's $100 and Growth's $300 monthly credit grants are use-it-or-lose-it and reset every billing cycle. Top-up credits you buy separately never expire.

What's the difference between a BYO job and a sourced job?

BYO (Bring Your Own) means you upload your own candidates — from LinkedIn URLs, a CSV from your ATS, or resume drops. The job lives in your portal as a container; Raffi only interviews + ranks the people you bring. BYO is always free. A sourced job is one Raffi actively distributes (to LinkedIn, Indeed, Google + the 200M talent pool) and headhunts on your behalf. That's a $99 unlock per job. Most customers start a job as BYO and promote it when they're ready to widen the funnel.

When does the $99 promote charge apply?

Only when you hit 'Promote to sourced' on a job. Creating a BYO job is free. Pro plan includes 1 sourced job per month, Growth includes 5 — additional sourced jobs are $99 each, charged from your wallet. You'll always see the price (or 'covered by your plan') before you confirm.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel from your billing page with one click — service runs through the end of the current period, then stops. No annual lock-in.

How does per-action pricing work?

Every action that costs us money costs you a small amount of credit: $0.45/min for screening calls, $0.30 to reveal an email, $1.50 for email + mobile, $50 for a full applicant profile reveal. Most hires cost $5–$20 in actions on top of your plan.
