JOIN vs. cord

JOIN is an applicant tracking system with job distribution built in. Small and mid-sized companies that hire without a dedicated talent-acquisition team use it to write a job ad, publish it everywhere they need to, and manage every applicant in one pipeline. Pricing is per active job, so every plan includes unlimited users and unlimited candidates: cost scales with hiring volume, not headcount. Distribution: write an ad in minutes with the AI Job Ad Builder, then publish it to 10+ organic job boards and 250+ paid platforms in one click, with no per-board logins and no re-keying the same ad.

cord is a hiring tool that enables companies to fill their pipelines with active people, and make direct hires. This is made possible by giving you access to thousands of responsive, pre-qualified engineers that you can message over a simple person-to-person messaging tool. High response rates make sourcing on cord as simple as sending a message. At cord, we are on a mission to increase the number of people doing their best work by enabling the most simple transaction on earth - a conversation - to happen between someone and their future colleagues.
