Ashby review: All-in-one recruiting software combining ATS, CRM, scheduling and analytics

What Ashby does

Handles applicant tracking, candidate outreach, interview scheduling, offers and recruiting reports in one system for hiring teams.

Ashby is a recruiting platform that brings applicant tracking, sourcing and CRM, interview scheduling and reporting into one system. Teams can run outreach sequences over email and LinkedIn, build structured interview plans, generate offer letters with e-signatures and follow hiring metrics in dashboards.

AI appears in several areas: candidate search from a typed prompt, application review against criteria you set, a chat assistant, custom agents, and an MCP server that links outside AI tools to your Ashby data. The AI Notetaker for interviews and Advanced Scheduling are sold as paid add-ons. The plan comparison also lists a public developer API, Slack features and a marketplace with 250+ integrations.

Pricing depends on company size. The All-In-One Foundations Plan, for up to 100 employees, is shown at $400 per month billed monthly, and the page says a 10% discount is available for annual commitments, without giving a yearly-billed per-month figure. The All-In-One Plus Plan, the All-In-One Enterprise Plan and Ashby Analytics have no published price; the vendor says pricing is based on company size, usage and commitment. No free plan or trial is mentioned. Stated limits on Foundations include 1,500 AI credits per month, 1,000 outbound texts per month and 3 custom permission roles.

Our take

Ashby fits teams that want one system for the whole hiring process rather than separate ATS, scheduling and reporting tools, and its plan tiers follow company size. Smaller companies get a published starting price, which helps budgeting, while larger organizations must talk to the vendor. It is a weaker match for anyone wanting to try the product alone, since the pages mention no free plan or trial. Some useful capabilities, such as the AI Notetaker and Advanced Scheduling, cost extra, and texting and AI credit allowances are capped per plan, so check those against your hiring volume before committing.
