Run a bigger desk without a bigger LinkedIn bill.
Built for boutique and mid-market search firms, 5 to 50 recruiters running contingent searches, not retained executive search. Replace LinkedIn Recruiter, your ATS, and your CRM with one flat licence per recruiter.
What running a desk on rented tools costs you
Your LinkedIn and ATS bills go up every year, whether or not you close more placements.
LinkedIn Recruiter (RPS) and a separate ATS like Bullhorn or Loxo are two fixed costs that rise 8–12% at renewal, no matter how many searches you actually ran this year.
A 5-recruiter desk pays roughly €27,500 for LinkedIn RPS and €9,000 for a standalone ATS, before a single placement closes.
Your client can't see the search they're paying for, unless you buy them a seat too.
Most sourcing and ATS tools charge per seat, so the people who actually need visibility, a partner, a researcher, the client themselves, end up working outside the system entirely.
Half the network is locked behind a seat you don't have.
RPS gives you third-degree contacts only, caps out-of-network reach at 50 a week, and keeps out-of-network profiles blurred until you spend a credit, so you find out whether they matched after you've already paid.
How one team runs many client searches without stepping on each other
-
Add every recruiter to the desk.
One shared platform for the whole team, not one licence per client.
-
Give each client their own search.
Filters, keywords, and location logic are scoped to that search alone. Nothing about how you sourced for Client A shows up when you search for Client B.
-
Calibrate AI Search and Source per client.
The agent learns what a good candidate looks like for this role, this client, not a blended average across every search your desk has ever run.
-
Launch a campaign in that client's voice.
Tone, language, and channel order are set per campaign, so a search for a Madrid client and one for a Berlin client never sound the same.
