The $1,800-a-Month ATS That Still Won't Screen Anyone

If your company is paying $15,000 to $25,000 a year for an applicant tracking system — and your recruiters are still doing all the phone screens themselves — you might be in the exact situation a lot of mid-market talent teams are quietly reconsidering right now. In this episode, we run the numbers on what actually changes when a 200-person SaaS company switches from Greenhouse to OVI, an AI-native ATS where the system itself handles sourcing and screening. The cost gap is real — but so are the trade-offs. From vacancy cost math to what you give up in analytics, we break down when the switch makes sense and when you should wait.
