How Blosto approaches it differently

Juicebox leads with scale: a very large multi-source database, published metrics, and a broad integration list. That is genuinely valuable, and if those are your deciding factors today, Juicebox is the safer pick.

Blosto leads with the evaluation itself. Every candidate is scored against criteria created for your role, and the reasoning is written out where recruiters and hiring managers can read, edit, and challenge it. The goal is not the longest list — it is a shortlist your team actually trusts.

On entry price the two are close — Juicebox's Starter seat lists at $119 vs Blosto's Starter at $149/month. The difference is what the plan contains: every Blosto plan carries the evaluation reasoning, and Team and Scale add coordinated email + LinkedIn sequences. And because both are self-serve, you can judge Blosto on a real role instead of a sales deck before paying.

Questions, answered.

Can I use Blosto and Juicebox side by side?+

Yes. Both are self-serve and free to try, so the cheapest way to decide is to run the same real role through both and compare the shortlists your team would actually contact — before paying for either.

Is Blosto cheaper than Juicebox?+

On list price, no — Juicebox's Starter is $119 per seat/month vs Blosto's Starter at $149/month ($125 billed annually), and Juicebox Growth is $199 per seat/month vs Blosto's Team at $219 per seat/month ($185 billed annually). Juicebox figures are its published pricing, checked August 2026. What the price buys differs: every Blosto plan includes candidate evaluation with visible reasoning, and Team and Scale add coordinated email + LinkedIn sequences. Both are self-serve, so the cheapest way to decide is running one real role through each.

Does Blosto have as much candidate data as Juicebox?+

Both search a comparable pool. Juicebox publishes 800M+ profiles across 30+ sources (its own figure, checked August 2026); Blosto searches a pool of more than 850 million profiles. Pool size is the least useful number in this comparison, though — run your actual role through both and look at how many people the filters leave standing.

Does Blosto integrate with my ATS like Juicebox does?+

Not yet. Juicebox lists 41 ATS and 21 CRM integrations. Blosto focuses on the work before the ATS — finding, evaluating, and reaching candidates — and your ATS stays the system of record once someone enters your process.

The fairest test is a real role.
