HireEZ

Paid Last verified: September 2026

AI-powered talent sourcing platform that searches 800M+ candidate profiles across the open web for recruiters

What is HireEZ?

HireEZ (formerly Hiretual) is an AI-powered outbound recruiting and talent sourcing platform that aggregates more than 800 million candidate profiles from LinkedIn, GitHub, personal websites, resume databases, and the open web. Where traditional LinkedIn Recruiter focuses on LinkedIn's own data, HireEZ casts a much wider net, it pulls together contact information (work email, personal email, phone) from multiple sources, deduplicates profiles, and applies AI to match candidates to job descriptions. Recruiters use HireEZ to build long lists of passive candidates, enrich contact details, and run automated email sequences. The platform includes AI-driven boolean query building, diversity filters (gender, ethnicity, veteran status) for DEI-focused sourcing, candidate engagement analytics, and direct integration with major ATS systems like Greenhouse, Workday, Lever, iCIMS, and SuccessFactors. HireEZ is popular with in-house recruiting teams at tech companies, staffing agencies, and executive search firms that run high-volume outbound sourcing. hireEZ now publishes a starting price for solo recruiters, $494/mo with a 7-day free trial, while enterprise teams are still quoted: seats are still part of the model, but pricing is configured to the stack hireEZ replaces rather than a flat per-seat rate times headcount.

No free plan, but there is a free trial. hireEZ publishes a starting price: solo recruiters start at $494/mo with a 7-day free trial. For enterprise teams, seats are still part of the model, but pricing is configured to the stack hireEZ replaces rather than a flat per-seat rate times headcount, so larger deployments are still quoted through a custom sales demo. We previously carried third-party per-seat and annual-contract estimates and said there was no free trial at all. Neither is supported by hireEZ's pricing page, so both are gone from this review.

FAQ

How much does HireEZ cost in 2026?

hireEZ now publishes a starting price: solo recruiters start at $494/mo with a 7-day free trial. For enterprise teams, seats are still part of the model, but pricing is configured to the stack hireEZ replaces rather than a flat per-seat rate times headcount, so you still need to book a sales demo to get an enterprise quote. The third-party per-seat and annual-contract estimates we previously cited are not shown anywhere on hireEZ's pricing page, so we no longer publish them.

Is HireEZ better than LinkedIn Recruiter?

For outbound sourcing beyond LinkedIn, yes. HireEZ aggregates 800M+ profiles from LinkedIn, GitHub, personal websites, and resume databases, much wider coverage than LinkedIn Recruiter alone. It also includes contact enrichment (personal emails and phone numbers) that LinkedIn prohibits. For inside LinkedIn's ecosystem (InMail, company pages, groups), LinkedIn Recruiter is still the native tool. Most recruiting teams use both.

Does HireEZ have a free plan?

No free plan, but there is a free trial. hireEZ lists a 7-day free trial on the solo recruiter plan, which starts at $494/mo. Enterprise evaluations happen through a sales demo with HireEZ's team. For a free candidate sourcing alternative, consider the free tier of LinkedIn (manual search) or AmazingHiring's free trial.

What ATS systems does HireEZ integrate with?

HireEZ integrates natively with Greenhouse, Workday, Lever, iCIMS, SuccessFactors, Bullhorn, SmartRecruiters, BambooHR, and Jobvite. Integrations support pushing candidates into the ATS, syncing status updates, and logging outreach activities against candidate profiles.

Is HireEZ good for diversity hiring?

Yes. HireEZ includes dedicated diversity filters that let recruiters build sourcing lists filtered by gender, ethnicity, veteran status, disability status, and other attributes (based on public signals and AI inference). These filters help DEI-focused hiring teams build more diverse candidate slates. They should be used alongside fair-hiring practices to avoid legal and ethical issues.

Can HireEZ replace a full recruiting agency?

For sourcing only, partially. HireEZ automates the outbound sourcing that agencies typically charge 15-25% contingency fees for, letting in-house recruiters build long candidate lists at scale without agency costs. What it doesn't replace is screening, interviewing, and relationship-building, those still require human recruiters. Most teams use HireEZ to reduce reliance on agencies rather than eliminate them entirely.

How does HireEZ compare to SeekOut and Fetcher?

All three are leading AI sourcing platforms. SeekOut has stronger diversity filters and deeper tech-specific sourcing. HireEZ has the largest aggregated profile database. Fetcher has the most affordable entry pricing and focuses on automated sourcing workflows. The choice depends on your specific needs, database size (HireEZ), diversity (SeekOut), or budget (Fetcher).

Privacy

SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, CCPA compliant. Enterprise controls for data retention, SSO, and audit logging. Encrypted at rest and in transit.

When to upgrade

Learning curve

Moderate. Recruiters need 1-2 weeks to master boolean query building and outreach workflows. The AI query assistant reduces the learning curve for less experienced sourcers.
