Free Recruiting Software

Free recruiting software that actually works

Not a trial. Not a freemium trap. Actually free.

Most "free" recruiting software is a trial, a severely limited freemium tier, or a lead-generation trap. KiteHR's free plan is a complete ATS: unlimited job postings, a fully configurable hiring pipeline, candidate profiles, email templates, team collaboration, and resume storage — all at $0, forever.

Frequently asked questions

What's the catch with KiteHR's free plan?

There's no catch. The core ATS is free forever. We make money when teams upgrade to Pro ($49/mo) for AI features. The free plan is genuinely free and sustainable.

How does KiteHR compare to free plans on paid ATS tools?

Most ATS free tiers cap you at 1–3 jobs, 1 user, or a 14-day trial. KiteHR's free plan has no job cap, no user cap, and no time limit.

Is KiteHR suitable for a company with no dedicated HR?

Yes — KiteHR is designed for lean teams. Founders, office managers, and department heads use it without any recruiting background. Setup takes minutes.
