Mainder gives recruiting teams AI agents, with a full ATS, CRM and sourcing workspace underneath. Autonomous external sourcing (AI Hunt) is included from the Core plan, inside the per-user price and not metered separately. Candidate data is processed inside the European Union, Spain Spanish ships today, and an MCP Server connects LLM agents to your recruiting data.
Workable Agent reached general availability in June 2026. Workable is the only generalist ATS in this cluster with confirmed autonomous external sourcing on its own documentation. The full Agent (autonomous sourcing, advanced screening and engagement) is a paid add-on on any Recruiting plan. Workable offers unlimited active jobs from the entry plan and a long-established integration ecosystem.

Yes. Workable Agent has been generally available since June 2026 and searches hundreds of millions of profiles, reaching out to candidates on its own. Anyone telling you Workable is inbound-only is working from outdated information.
Workable states that the full Agent — autonomous sourcing, advanced screening and engagement — is a paid add-on to any Recruiting plan. When you compare quotes, ask for the add-on cost on top of the plan price, because that total is the number that matters.
Their data protection page lists the United Kingdom, the United States and Greece. We found no EU-only residency option as of July 2026. Mainder processes candidate data inside the European Union. If your legal team requires EU-only processing, confirm this directly with Workable before you commit.
Latin American Spanish shipped in April 2026. Spain Spanish was listed as planned rather than available when we checked in July 2026. If you hire in Spain and interface language matters to your recruiters, check the current status.
Workable if your volume comes in spikes, because unlimited active jobs from the entry plan means the bill does not move when you open thirty roles at once. Mainder if your volume is steady and the constraint is sourcing throughput per recruiter, because sourcing is in the per-user price rather than metered on top.
