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.

Among talent acquisition products that publish a rate, iCIMS is the cheapest at about $9 per user per month and Jobvite the most expensive at about $55. Published rates bound the negotiation even when Greenhouse itself is quote-based.

Is Greenhouse pricing negotiable?

Published list rates are the starting point, not the floor. Annual commitment, multi-year terms and seat volume are the usual levers, and vendors in this category commonly discount for committed seat counts. Bring a competing published rate to the conversation.
