Loxo Pricing Explained: What Per-Seat Costs a Small Agency (2026)

•
•6 min read

Quick Answer: Loxo publishes per-user pricing at loxo.co/pricing: Core starts at $149/user/month and Professional starts at $199/user/month, billed annually and paid up front, with Enterprise on a custom quote. Loxo runs a self-serve 7-day trial of the full Professional platform, no credit card required — there's no free tier. If you're a small permanent-placement agency and the per-seat bill is the problem — not the feature set — JuggleHire is the direct alternative: Starter $15/month or Unlimited $49/month, flat for your whole company, no per-seat pricing, self-serve signup, 14-day trial.

#Who actually needs to think twice about Loxo's pricing

Loxo is a real, capable platform. Agencies leave (or never sign) for one of two reasons:

  1. Per-user pricing punishes team growth. Add a recruiter, the bill goes up. A 3-seat desk and an 8-seat desk pay very different totals for the same tool — and Loxo's paid plans are billed annually, so that total is one invoice up front, not a monthly trickle.
  2. The AI-sourcing engine is more than you need. If your agency already runs outbound on LinkedIn Recruiter and works its own candidate database, paying extra for a large sourcing index is capability you're not using.

If none of that describes you — if you're a multi-recruiter agency that leans hard on Loxo Source for cold sourcing — Loxo is the right tool and switching won't help. Keep reading if the per-seat math is what's pushing you to look elsewhere.

The math that matters: a 5-seat desk on Loxo Core starts at $149/user/month, billed annually — from $8,940/year, paid up front (Professional starts from $11,940/year). JuggleHire's Unlimited plan covers unlimited team members at $49/month flat, billed monthly — $588/year. That gap is the whole argument for switching, not a marginal discount.


#Where Loxo is genuinely the better tool

Be honest with yourself before you switch:

  • You depend on AI sourcing. Loxo Source searching its talent graph for passive candidates is a real capability JuggleHire doesn't have — but it's a Professional-tier feature on Loxo ($199/user/mo), not something Core includes. JuggleHire works with candidates you already have or bring in — it doesn't go find them for you.
  • You run executive search or multi-client placement at volume. Loxo's agency CRM is mature for that workflow.
  • You need deep placement/revenue tracking across many clients. That's Loxo's core strength.

If those are must-haves, don't switch on price alone — you'll be buying back the sourcing engine somewhere else.


#Where JuggleHire fits better

  • You're a small perm-placement agency (2-8 staff) in tech or finance/accounting.
  • Your candidate flow is already outbound-sourced through LinkedIn Recruiter or your own database — you need a place to manage it, rank it, and move it through a pipeline, not another sourcing engine.
  • You want one flat number that doesn't change when you hire your third recruiter, and no annual invoice up front.
  • You want to see pricing without a sales call and start on a trial today.

JuggleHire is a recruitment CRM for permanent-placement agencies: AI ranking, native scheduling, and, on every plan, skills tests, video interviews, and GDPR controls (automations are on Unlimited) — priced flat per agency, not per seat. Submittal tracking across many active clients is still a gap against Loxo's mature agency CRM — candidates live in your agency's shared database rather than being tied to a specific client record — so if that's your daily workflow, weigh it against the price difference.


#Frequently Asked Questions

#How much does Loxo cost?

Loxo publishes per-seat pricing: Core starts at $149/user/month and Professional starts at $199/user/month, both billed annually and paid up front. Enterprise is a custom quote. There's no free tier, but a self-serve 7-day trial of the full Professional platform, no card required. Source: loxo.co/pricing.

#What's the cheapest Loxo alternative for a small agency?

JuggleHire, at $15/month (Starter) or $49/month (Unlimited) flat for the whole company — no per-seat fee. For agencies that specifically want low-cost AI candidate scoring plus CRM, Manatal ($15/user/month billed annually, $19/user/month billed monthly, up to 15 jobs and 10,000 candidates on its Professional plan) is another option, though it's still priced per user.

#Does JuggleHire replace Loxo Source (AI sourcing)?

No. JuggleHire doesn't search a candidate database of passive profiles — it manages, ranks, and moves candidates you already have. If AI sourcing is the reason you use Loxo, JuggleHire isn't a like-for-like swap.

#Is JuggleHire built for agencies or in-house teams?

JuggleHire is built for small US permanent-placement agencies (2-8 staff) in tech or finance/accounting — that's the current product focus and roadmap priority.

#Does JuggleHire have a free trial?

Yes — 14 days, self-serve. A card is required to start the trial, and you can cancel any time before day 15 to avoid being charged.
