Why switch

Why teams switch from Airtable to hire.page

No candidate-facing features

Airtable has no branded careers page, no candidate portal, and no automated emails. Every candidate interaction happens outside Airtable — via email, Slack, or manual outreach. hire.page handles the entire candidate-facing workflow automatically.

Hours of setup vs 5 minutes

Building an ATS in Airtable means configuring bases, views, automations (limited to paid plans), and forms. Most templates take 1-3 hours to customize. hire.page is ready in 5 minutes — careers page, pipeline, and application forms included.

Per-user pricing adds up fast

Airtable's Team plan costs $20/user/month. A 5-person hiring team pays $100/month for a tool that still lacks careers pages, candidate emails, and proper ATS features. hire.page gives you a complete ATS for $49/month flat.
