Teamtailor pricing and what a year costs next to a flat priced AI recruiter
Teamtailor shows no prices and asks for a quote. Here is what the page says, what to get in writing before you sign, and how a published price AI recruiter compares for a small team.

The short answer
Teamtailor pricing is not published. Its pricing page describes one offering with everything included, marks two features as premium, and asks you to tell them about your company so they can return a price. RecruitingBot Starter costs 1,788 USD a year billed yearly (299 USD if you pay monthly) and finds, contacts and screens candidates. Teamtailor is a career site and applicant tracking system, so the two solve different problems and many small teams need to price both.
What the Teamtailor page lists
The page presents a single package rather than tiers. Most features are tagged as included. Two are tagged Premium: Requisitions and Approval Flows, and Divisions and Multi-brand Management. The page does not say whether Premium costs extra, so ask.
No amounts are shown, so any number you see on a third party site is an estimate. Treat it as a starting point for negotiation, not a budget.

What to get in writing before you sign
A quote only helps if it is complete. Send every vendor the same brief and ask for a written answer.
- The total for year one including every Premium feature you expect to use.
- How the price changes if headcount or the number of open roles grows during the term.
- Whether the price is per employee, per job slot or flat.
- The contract length, the renewal uplift and the notice needed to cancel.
- Onboarding or setup fees and what data migration covers.
- How many recruiters and hiring managers are included and what an extra user costs.
A career site and a sourcing tool do different jobs
Teamtailor is built around your career page and the candidates who apply through it. It is a good way to present your employer brand and keep applicants organized. It does not go out and find a passive engineer, write to them from your mailbox and chase a reply.
If your roles draw plenty of inbound applicants, the career site is the right first purchase. If your roles are hard to fill, the queue is thin and the work is outreach, which is what a flat priced recruiter covers. Automated resume screening handles the inbound pile, and AI candidate screening explains how scoring against a rubric works.
Once a hire accepts, the next conversation is pay. A new hire preparing for it can negotiate their salary with an AI coach before replying to your offer, which is worth budgeting room for.
Year one cost for a small team
Take a 30 person company hiring six salaried roles in a year. Teamtailor will quote an amount we cannot publish for you. RecruitingBot Starter at 1,788 USD covers three active roles at once with sourcing and screening. Put the Teamtailor quote beside it and add the hours your people spend on sourcing and first screens.
If a person spends ten hours per role finding and screening candidates, six roles is sixty hours. Value your own time and compare. Our cost per hire guide for startups walks through that math.

Who should choose which
Choose Teamtailor when employer branding and a polished career page drive your applications and you need a shared place for hiring managers to review them. Choose RecruitingBot when the work you want removed is finding people, getting replies and reaching a reviewed shortlist. RecruitingBot is not an ATS and imports CSV on every plan.
