Breezy's Free Plan Holds One Job. A Desk Needs More.
Breezy Bootstrap is free and allows one active position, with candidate data limited to 30 days. Startup is shown at $157 a month on the annual view.
Breezy's Bootstrap plan is free, and it allows one active position or one candidate pool at a time. That limit is the product decision for a recruiting firm. A desk with two searches open cannot live on Bootstrap. The paid Startup plan is the first tier that removes the cap, and its price is published per account, not per employee.
The pricing page we opened shows Bootstrap at no charge. It shows Startup at 157 dollars a month on the annual view and 189 dollars a month on the monthly view, and it says annual pricing includes two months free. The next figures on that page are 273 and 329 dollars a month. We are not assigning those higher figures to a plan name beyond what the page stacks under Startup, and we did not complete a purchase. A help article updated August 19, 2026 restates the free plan's two hard limits: one active position or pool, and access to candidate data added in the last 30 days. Breezy pricing, accessed October 2026. Breezy, Bootstrap plan, August 19, 2026.
One opening is a company trial, not an agency workflow
Bootstrap includes unlimited users, a career site, distribution to job boards, resume parsing, and compliance tools. The help article says the point of the paid plans is multiple active positions, partner integrations, and custom pipelines. Unlimited users on a plan that holds one job means a whole team can look at a single search. It does not mean the team can run the desk's week. Candidates added more than 30 days ago drop out of reach on Bootstrap. A search that stalls for a month loses the history you would use to restart it.
The August 19 article also says a downgrade from a paid plan to Bootstrap takes effect immediately, and custom pipelines are among the features you lose. Do not treat the free plan as a harmless place to park an account between clients. The downgrade is a cut, not a pause.
Startup, on the pricing page, adds unlimited positions, questionnaires, interview self-scheduling, Slack, and EEOC and OFCCP reporting on top of Bootstrap. Those are employer recruiting features. They fit a company hiring into itself. A staffing firm can use unlimited positions only if the client relationship allows the jobs to sit in the firm's Breezy account. The page does not discuss client ownership of candidates. Ask that question before you put a client's search into your portal.
How the 157 dollar figure should be quoted
One hundred fifty-seven dollars a month on the annual view is 1,884 dollars over twelve months if that rate is charged each month. The page's "two months free" line means the annual offer is not simply twelve times 157. We did not see the annual checkout total, so we will not invent it. Quote 157 only as the monthly equivalent displayed for annual pricing, and 189 as the monthly-plan display. Put the date you saw them next to both.
Add-ons are separate. The pricing page describes AI credits starting at 30 dollars for 100,000, SMS credits starting at 41 dollars a month, and onboarding starting at 49 dollars a month. A firm that needs texting should add that line. The base Startup price does not include it in the sections we read.
Bootstrap keeps one job and thirty days of candidate data. A desk with overlapping searches is already outside the free plan.
Add-ons sit outside the 157 dollar display
SMS, AI evaluation, and onboarding are listed as optional. The page gives starting prices of 41 dollars a month for SMS credits, 30 dollars for 100,000 AI credits, and 49 dollars a month for onboarding. A team that texts candidates is not buying the 157 dollar plan alone. Add the SMS line before you tell a partner the tool is cheap. Performance management is described without a dollar figure in the section we read, so it stays off the quote. Annual pricing's two free months apply to the plan price the page is discounting. We did not see those months applied to add-ons.
Who should start here, and who should not
Start on Bootstrap if you are an employer filling one role and you want to see the career site. Move to Startup when a second job must stay open, or when you need a candidate who applied more than a month ago. Do not start a recruiting firm on Bootstrap and promise clients concurrent searches.
Do not buy Breezy to get LinkedIn InMail, a private-company funding database, or a dialer. Those are not the features on this page. Do not assume the price scales with your client's headcount. Unlike an employer suite that asks how many employees you have, the figures above are plan prices. Confirm on the live page that your country sees dollars before you send the number to a partner.
We did not open a paid workspace. The limits and the prices are the public pages. A later visit should replace this note if Startup is no longer 157 and 189, or if Bootstrap's one-job rule changes. The rule, more than the dollar, is what tells a recruiting desk that the free plan is a demo.
