Niyuk.AI is the modern recruitment platform built for that purpose. Niyuk.AI is designed to automate and simplify the hiring process for recruiters and businesses. It handles redundant and time-consuming tasks like candidate screening and initial interviews, making HR professionals free to focus on strategic decisions.
Zoho Recruit’s entry-level plan lacks features like Boolean search and essential integrations, which are available in top-tier plans. Even with high subscriptions, users face limitations like limited resume parsing and storage capacity. Zoho Recruit is also missing tools, like custom resume builder and recruitment CRM. Zoho offers few free jobs board integrations. This highlights clarity and cost-effectiveness for recruiters.

Pricing Comparison
Zoho Recruit offers a traditional pricing structure. You pay a fee per recruiter, and that fee gives a specific level of access and features (including their AI Candidate Matching in higher plans). This is best for agencies needing for budget predictability.
On the other hand, Niyuk.AI has a flexible, consumption-based pricing model that sometimes known as “Pay-as-you-go,” is primarily different from the fixed per-user subscriptions that many conventional ATS and CRM platforms employ. Niyuk’s cost scales in direct proportionate to the amount of AI services used, rather than charging a fixed fee for each recruiter.
This shows that the amount spent is determined by how many AI assessments and AI interviews a business performs. Due to its unique design, this method is very cost-effective and scalable, which makes it a great option for lean startups, small to medium-sized businesses (SMEs), and organisations that deal with seasonal hiring spikes or high volume hiring where budget predictability is required without committing to multiple fixed user licenses.
