Katara gets better every week. Here's exactly what's included in each plan.
“Katara is the only platform where your next hire finds you — not the other way round.”
Agency figures are typical market rates: 15–25% of first-year salary on placement, plus a retainer on retained search. Katara is $374/yr solo and from $758/yr for teams, billed annually, with no per-hire fee.
Can't find what you're looking for?Get in touch.
No. Katara is a subscription-based platform. Unlike traditional recruiters or job boards that take a 15–25% share of a candidate's first-year salary, you only pay for your monthly or annual access.
For engineering hiring, often yes. Team plans include a careers page under your brand, and every application lands in the same Kanban as the engineers you sourced. Scorecards, interview booking, offers and onboarding live on that board too. If you hire across many functions or rely on deep HR integrations, keep your ATS and use Katara for engineers.
Absolutely. You can upgrade to annual billing at any time to take advantage of the 20% discount. If you choose to cancel, your access will remain active until the end of your current billing period.
Yes, completely. Creating a profile, being discovered by teams, and managing pitches is always free for talent. We believe exceptional professionals should never have to pay to find their next great role.
Teams can request verification, and we review each request by hand. Verified teams carry a badge; unverified ones carry a caution candidates can see.
