Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

workinsiders

workinsiders_ats_integrations

Which tools integrate with an applicant tracking system (Bullhorn, Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, JobAdder and others), from the Work Insiders ATS compatibility data. With a tool given as well, it checks that one pair. Each match says whether the vendor confirms it, the evidence link and the sync direction.

workinsiders_category_overview

What a category costs and who leads it: tool count, median public starting price, how many hide their price or have a free plan, how many run an MCP server, editor picks, cheapest public prices and the category intro.

workinsiders_compare_tools

Side by side comparison of 2 to 4 named tools: starting price, free plan and trial, MCP, API, AI-native, best for, watch-outs, bottom line and Capterra rating.

workinsiders_find_alternatives

Alternatives to one named tool: first the ones Work Insiders names in its write-up (with the reason), then others from the same category. Filterable by MCP, free plan and price.

workinsiders_get_tool

Returns the full Work Insiders profile of one named tool: what it does, pricing with plans and the date the price was checked, free trial, first party MCP server and API, AI features, bottom line, strengths, watch-outs, best for, pros and cons, integrations, Capterra rating and named alternatives. Finding tools by need or filter is what workinsiders_search_tools does.

workinsiders_list_categories

Lists every Work Insiders category (ATS, sourcing, email finders, AI interviewing, payroll and so on) with its slug, tool count and page link.

workinsiders_search_tools

Searches the Work Insiders directory of 1,000+ recruiting, HR, sales prospecting and AI tools by free text and filters: category, first party MCP server, API, free plan, free trial, AI-native and maximum starting price. Returns up to 25 tools per page, each with its starting price, flags and Work Insiders page link. Full detail on one tool comes from workinsiders_get_tool.

Work Insiders — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Work Insiders do?

It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: workinsiders_ats_integrations, workinsiders_category_overview, workinsiders_compare_tools, workinsiders_find_alternatives, workinsiders_get_tool, workinsiders_list_categories and 1 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Work Insiders working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 719 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Work Insiders?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Work Insiders need an API key?

No. Work Insiders completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Work Insiders?

It answers our handshake in 719 ms on average, which is faster than 11% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
