What Hirebridge Engage is
Hirebridge Engage is an AI-powered talent engagement platform for building a candidate network and activating it when roles open. AI sourcing searches public profiles, matches candidates to job descriptions, and supports importing candidates with enriched data and contact information. Teams can organize candidate records into talent pools with segmentation, advanced search, engagement scores, and bulk actions. Outreach and engagement tools include email and drip campaigns, two-way SMS, event management, branded talent pages, and an embeddable website chat widget. Engage can run independently, sync bidirectionally with Hirebridge Recruiter, or connect to ATS platforms through REST APIs and webhooks; custom integrations are available on Enterprise. It also describes an MCP server for compatible AI tools, with OAuth-secured client access and candidate and sourcing scopes. Starter costs $399/mo and includes up to 25,000 candidate records and 5,000 emails per month. Pro costs $1,099/mo and includes up to 100,000 records and 25,000 emails per month. Enterprise offers unlimited records and 100,000+ emails per month, with price not listed. The company says candidate data is encrypted at rest and in transit and stored in a dedicated tenant database.
