No free plan. The cheapest way in is Standard at $299/month for 1-20 employees, billed annually at $3,588/year; monthly billing is available from $360/month according to the pricing toggle. Consider free alternatives in the hr & recruiting category if budget is tight.
Workable is used to manage recruiting and HR workflows in one platform. On the recruiting side, it covers candidate sourcing, job board distribution, applicant tracking, interview scheduling, evaluations, offer management, and reporting. On the HR side, it includes employee onboarding, employee profiles, document management, time off, time tracking, payroll preparation, and payroll integrations. It is most useful for teams that want to connect hiring data with employee records after a candidate is hired.
Workable’s published pricing starts at $299/month for the Standard plan for 1-20 employees, billed annually at $3,588/year. Premier starts at $599/month, billed annually at $7,188/year, and Enterprise starts at $719/month, billed annually at $8,628/year for the same 1-20 employee band. The website also offers a 15-day free trial with no credit card required. Costs can rise with employee count and add-ons such as texting, video interviews, assessments, referrals, and performance reviews.
Yes. Workable describes AI features for drafting job descriptions, generating interview kits and scorecards, proposing salary bands, parsing resumes, drafting personalized candidate emails, screening applicants, and matching passive candidates. Its AI sourcing is connected to a pool of 400M+ candidate profiles and can resurface relevant candidates already in your database. These features are designed to reduce manual recruiting work, but teams should still review AI-assisted recommendations for accuracy, bias, and role fit.
Workable is broader than a standalone ATS because it combines applicant tracking with sourcing, onboarding, HRIS, time off, time tracking, payroll preparation, and employee records. A standalone ATS may be cheaper or simpler if your company only needs candidate pipeline management. Workable makes more sense when recruiting, onboarding, and HR administration need to share data across the same platform. Based on our analysis of 870+ AI tools, this type of bundled workflow is most valuable for growing teams that are replacing spreadsheets and disconnected HR tools.
Workable states that it supports 270+ integrations across email, calendar, Slack, video conferencing, productivity suites, analytics platforms, assessments, background checks, HR systems, and payroll tools. Specific website examples include Gmail and Microsoft 365 calendar sync, Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, ADP Workforce Now, Xero, Indeed Easy Apply, Apply with LinkedIn, and LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect. API access and data export capabilities are also listed in the platform features. Teams with a complex HR stack should still confirm that their exact payroll, assessment, and background check vendors are supported before purchase.
