How the math works
Percentage-based agency fees
Most recruitment agencies charge 15–25% of a new hire's first-year salary. Hire five engineers at $150k and a 20% fee alone costs $150,000 — every year you keep hiring.
One flat subscription
Katara charges a flat subscription, not a percentage of salary. Hire one person or twenty in a year — the price doesn't move.
Estimates are for illustration only, based on publicly available industry fee benchmarks. Your actual costs may vary.
Stop paying by the hire
Switch to one flat subscription and hire as many engineers as you need.
