Overview

Ashby is an all-in-one recruiting platform founded in 2018 by Benjamin Encz and Abhik Pramanik, headquartered in San Francisco. It consolidates applicant tracking, sourcing CRM, interview scheduling, and recruiting analytics into a single connected system.

The platform is used by talent acquisition teams at companies including Xero, Shopify, Notion, Linear, Zapier, Replit, and Deel.

Key Features

Ashby combines an applicant tracking system (ATS) with a sourcing CRM, scheduling automation, and custom recruiting analytics and dashboards. AI is embedded throughout, including an AI Notetaker that records, transcribes, and summarizes candidate interviews, and the platform connects to existing HR and recruiting tools via API.

Ashby's Foundations plan costs $400/month for companies up to 100 employees, billed monthly or with a 10% annual discount. The Plus plan (101–1,000 employees) and Enterprise plan (1,000+ employees) are custom-priced. Ashby Analytics is sold separately on a usage basis for companies with 100+ employees using another ATS.
