Structured-hiring applicant tracking system for sourcing, interviewing and onboarding.

WorkdayADP Workforce NowUKG ProUKG ReadyGreenhouse is an applicant tracking system (ATS) and hiring platform founded in 2012 by Daniel Chait and Jon Stross. It is built around the idea of structured hiring: defining role requirements, interview plans and scorecards up front so that hiring decisions across a company are based on consistent, comparable criteria rather than ad hoc interviewer judgment. The platform spans sourcing, candidate relationship management, interview scheduling and evaluation, offer management, onboarding, and reporting.
Greenhouse organizes its product around several pillars: AI-assisted recruiting (including an AI Notetaker that transcribes and maps interview notes to scorecard questions), talent sourcing and CRM tools, structured interviewing with interview kits and scorecards, scalable workflows with automation and governance controls, an onboarding module that carries new-hire data from the ATS into a company's HR systems, and reporting and insights with 40+ pre-built reports plus BI connectors. In 2026 the company added Greenhouse Real Talent, an identity-verification and fraud-detection layer for candidate vetting built with CLEAR, following its acquisition of voice-AI interviewing company Ezra AI Labs.
The company is aimed at organizations ranging from early-stage startups through scaling companies to large enterprises, and lists customers including Anthropic, DoorDash, HelloFresh, Coursera, Okta, HubSpot, Lyft, Betterment, the NFL and MLB. It connects to hundreds of third-party recruiting, HRIS and productivity tools through pre-built integrations and an open API/developer platform.

Full Greenhouse pricing breakdown — cost at 25/100/500 seats, competitor rates & FAQs
Greenhouse quotes rather than publishes, but reported contracts start around $6,500 a year for small teams and run $15,000 to $40,000 for mid-market. Two lines catch buyers out: implementation is charged separately at $1,000 to $15,000, and the onboarding module is a further $2,500 to $5,000 a year rather than being part of the ATS. Pricing keys off company headcount and hiring volume, not recruiter seats, so a company hiring heavily from a small team still pays the headcount-based rate.

Yes. Greenhouse's HRIS Link for Workday imports jobs, offices, departments and users from Workday into Greenhouse Recruiting, and exports new-hire data from Greenhouse to Workday to kick off onboarding without manual re-entry.
Beyond Workday, Greenhouse's HRIS Link supports ADP Workforce Now, UKG Pro and UKG Ready for new-hire and user syncing. Additional HR and payroll systems can be connected through Greenhouse's 500+ marketplace integrations or its open API.
Greenhouse publishes three plan tiers - Core, Plus and Pro - but not dollar pricing. Cost depends on the plan chosen, hiring volume and organizational complexity, and requires a sales quote.
Structured hiring is Greenhouse's core methodology: defining role requirements and an interview plan with scorecards before interviews begin, so every candidate is evaluated against the same criteria rather than ad hoc interviewer impressions.
Greenhouse Real Talent is an identity-verification and fraud-detection capability, built with CLEAR, designed to filter AI-generated and fraudulent job applications during candidate vetting.
