pricing[See AI & Automation pricing](#ai-automation-pricing)https://www.bullhorn.com/pricing/
pricingBullhorn pricing for small staffing agencies starts at $99 per user per month with the Starter plan. Four tiers are available: Bullhorn Starter ($99/user/month), with applicant tracking, resume parsing, and client management included. Bullhorn Core ($165/user/month) is the flexible foundation for small, growing teams, adding the app marketplace, LinkedIn integration, and custom workflows. Bullhorn Pro (custom pricing) adds a full recruitment CRM plus Amplify’s AI: AI search and match, Amplify Chat, AI data enrichment, AI resume formatting, and AI call transcription, along with real-time analytics and a dedicated account manager. Bullhorn Max (custom pricing) is Bullhorn’s agentic AI tier, adding omni-channel candidate engagement, agentic screening, and automated AI matching on top of Pro. Each tier builds on the one before it, so you start with what you need and add capabilities as your agency grows. See Bullhorn’s full product range.https://www.bullhorn.com/small-agency-software/pricing/
pricingBullhorn runs on one platform at every tier, so you start with a complete ATS and add capabilities as you grow, without switching systems. Bullhorn Starter is a full applicant tracking system for under $100 per user per month, with resume parsing, candidate and client management, and job posting. Marketplace integrations come with Bullhorn Core, and a full recruitment CRM, automation, and AI Assistant come with Bullhorn Pro. Many tools at similar entry prices are stripped-back trials, and when you outgrow their limits you face a costly data migration. With Bullhorn, your data, workflows, and records carry forward at every step, so you add features without starting over.https://www.bullhorn.com/small-agency-software/pricing/
pricingBullhorn includes free implementation with Bullhorn Starter, Core, and Pro, its three small agency pricing tiers. Bullhorn Max, Bullhorn’s agentic AI tier, is quoted separately, and implementation for Max is scoped as part of that quote rather than included at no cost.https://www.bullhorn.com/small-agency-software/pricing/
