Which AI visibility agencies work with recruiting software companies?
Six of the 107 agencies in our AEO Agency Index publish a page that offers AI search work and names recruiting or applicant tracking software: AuthorityTech, DerivateX, GrowPad, Growthner, LLMReach and LoudFace. Five more publish an HR tech page that never mentions recruiting software, so an HR tech page is not always a recruiting page. Four of the six publish a price, and none publishes a rule about taking your competitor. 1 2
An AI visibility agency works to get a software company named and cited in the answers assistants such as ChatGPT and Perplexity give when a recruiter or a talent acquisition leader asks which tool to buy.
How was this list built?
We scanned the sitemaps of all 107 agencies in the AEO Agency Index for addresses naming HR tech, recruiting, applicant tracking, talent or hiring. Then we read the pages in a browser that respected each site's robots rules. A page qualified if it sits in the agency's services or industries section, names AI search work in its body, and names recruiting software, an ATS or talent acquisition among the products it works with. Every listed page was read twice. 2
Two more pages were read and left out: one sold SEO with AI search only in a banner, and one was written for payroll and employer of record companies. MV3 Marketing's HR tech and recruiting pages returned a regional block, so we did not read them. Prices come from the index, read twice on 3 November, and are the lowest monthly figure on each agency's whole site.
The six agencies, and us

| Growthner 10 | $2,500 | SEO and GEO for HR tech SaaS, ATS named. |
| LLMReach 11 | Not published | GEO, with a sample of HR buyer questions run on the page. |
| LoudFace 12 | $5,000 | SEO, AEO and GEO for HR tech SaaS. |

Is an HR tech page a recruiting page?
Not always. Five agencies publish an HR tech page with AI search work that names no recruiting software: Omnius, Optimist, PipeRocket Digital, Rock The Rankings and SimpleTiger. Their pages are written for HR, payroll and people operations buyers. That experience may still help, though recruiting software is usually bought by a talent acquisition leader, whose questions differ from an HR director's.
Even among the six, the weight varies. DerivateX's page is headed get cited when HR buyers ask ChatGPT for an HRIS, with ATS questions among its examples. LLMReach gives ATS and recruiting software a section of its own, and AuthorityTech's whole page is about recruiting technology. GrowPad, Growthner and LoudFace name the ATS alongside HRIS, payroll and workforce tools. 8 11 7
What does a recruiting software AI visibility agency cost?
Four of the six publish a price, from $2,500 to $5,000 a month, with a median of $4,000: Growthner at $2,500, GrowPad at $3,000, and DerivateX and LoudFace at $5,000 each. DerivateX bills off-site placement budget on top. AuthorityTech and LLMReach publish no price we could find. These are the lowest monthly figures on each agency's site, read on 3 November 2026. 1 8
What should a recruiting software company check?
- Ask which sites the agency expects AI to cite for your category. In LLMReach's own test on its HR tech page, People Managing People was cited in 9 of 30 answers, so review and media sites belong in the plan. Ask for the same read on your own buyer questions. 11
- Check that it separates your buyers. A head of talent acquisition and a working recruiter ask AI different questions about the same ATS.
- Ask for results by assistant, as two numbers: how often you are named and how often your site is cited.
- Ask whether it works for a competitor. None of the six publishes a rule against it on the pages we read. Across the five industry lists we built this month, two agencies do, AY Rank and MADX Digital, and neither has an HR tech page. 4 5
Exclusivity terms are covered in more depth in AEO agencies that take only one client per category, and the wider field in the best AI visibility agencies for B2B SaaS. 6
How do the five industries compare?
We read the same 107 agencies for five industries with the same rule. The field is widest for fintech and narrowest for regtech, and the competitor rule is rare everywhere.
| Industry | Agencies with a page | Median entry price | Publish a price | Publish a competitor rule |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fintech and finance software | 30 | $3,750 | 20 | 2 |
| Cybersecurity | 20 | $4,250 | 11 | 0 |
| Legal tech | 6 | $3,500 | 3 | 0 |
| Recruiting software | 6 | $4,000 | 4 | 0 |
| Regtech | 3 | $1,000 (one price) | 1 | 0 |
