Blosto is a web recruiting tool for finding and assessing candidates before they enter a customer's ATS, which remains the system of record. Users can describe a role in plain language, paste a job description, or search with Boolean strings and exact filters. The homepage says the service searches more than 850 million profiles. Candidate scores show evidence for how profiles meet must-haves, preferences, and exclusions. Before committing to a search, recruiters can check how many candidates meet combined requirements in a location. For shortlisted candidates, Blosto prepares targeted email and LinkedIn sequences, with scheduled follow-ups stopping when someone replies. Candidates are not contacted without user approval. The free start does not require a credit card. Starter is 125.00 USD per month billed annually for one seat and 250 shortlist credits per month. Team is 185.00 USD per month billed annually per seat, with pooled credits, up to 10 seats, and shared projects and shortlists. Scale has custom pricing and includes ATS integration, guided onboarding, and a dedicated point of contact.
Who it is for
Blosto is aimed at in-house recruiters, hiring teams, founders, and agencies, particularly those hiring for technical, specialized, or senior roles. It suits teams that want candidate sourcing and outreach preparation before records move into their ATS.
