Then $49.99 per seat / month.
Each recruiter gets 30 days free. To keep Authentic after that, you add their seat.
Your admin account is free and needs no extension. It's where you add or remove seats and manage billing.
30 days. No credit card required.
No. Authentic is an overlay: a Chrome extension that sits on top of the pages your recruiters already use, like Gmail, LinkedIn, and your ATS. It doesn't connect to your ATS, so there's nothing to migrate and nothing new for your team to learn.
When a recruiter opens a candidate in Gmail, LinkedIn, or your ATS, Authentic shows their references right there, next to the resume. They never leave their tab.
Recruiters install it themselves from the Chrome Web Store and get 30 days free. Some companies manage which extensions are allowed. If yours does, ask your IT team to allow Authentic.
Authentic runs on the page your recruiter is viewing, but it only reads the candidate's email address, which it uses to find their references. Nothing else is read or sent, and nothing is written to your systems.
Yes. Authentic works in any ATS that shows the candidate's email on the page.
Each reference is confirmed by the person it names. We check that their email domain matches the company they list, and their LinkedIn too if they add one. Once confirmed, a reference can't be edited. And your recruiters can contact any reference directly to check for themselves.
No. Authentic isn't scoring or filtering anyone with AI - it's confirmation from real people who worked with the candidate. Your recruiters still make the call.
It's free and needs no extension. It's where you add or remove recruiter seats and manage billing.
Full access for 30 days, no card required. The extension counts down in the final week and reminds the recruiter to forward it to you. You add their seat from your admin account at $49.99 a month.
No. Seats are month-to-month, cancel anytime.
Free for 30 days. Every recruiter on your team sees the references right on the resume.
