Build vs. buy
Custom CRM vs. off-the-shelf
A recruiting desk has two sides — a candidate pool and client roles — and candidates go cold when there's no pipeline per role and no reason to keep warm the people you nearly placed.

You adapt your business to their fixed fields and objects.

Lock-in
Off-the-shelf SaaS (Salesforce, HubSpot)

Skip the $50k custom-CRM dev agency — the AI builds it.
A custom CRM is one of the internal tools you can make with Kleap's AI internal tool builder. Add sign-in so only signed-in users can open it; ask Kleap to limit access to your team's accounts and test it with a second account before sharing.
Ownership
Your CRM, your data
It's a real app that belongs to you. the code, the database, and the domain. not a rented seat in someone else's platform.
You own the code
Your CRM is a real app you can export to GitHub. not a config trapped inside someone else's platform.
Your own database
Records live in your app's own database, not pooled in a vendor's cloud with everyone else's.
Your own domain
Publish on your custom domain so it's your CRM, on your brand. not a subdomain of theirs.
No per-seat lock-in
Add your whole team without per-seat pricing, and leave anytime with your data intact.
Playbook
Built around how recruiters really work
A recruiting CRM has two sides: candidates and clients. You're sourcing and nurturing candidates while managing the roles clients want filled, then moving people through submission, interview, and placement. Describe your desk and the AI builds a CRM around candidates, job pipelines, and placements instead of a single flat list.
Pipeline per role sourced → screened → submitted → interview → offer → placed, so every job has clear status.
Candidate pool keep it searchable, tagged by skill, seniority, and availability; your database is the asset.
Both sides of the desk track client companies with their open roles alongside the candidates who fill them.
Warm-keeping log every touchpoint so candidates you placed (or nearly placed) stay warm for the next role.
Placement details record start date, fee, and guarantee period so you see revenue and manage fall-offs.
Candidate source tag referral, LinkedIn, or inbound to double down on the channels that actually place.
Offer stage track offer extended, accepted, and start-date confirmed so nothing collapses in the last mile.
Guarantee and fall-off flag placements nearing the end of a guarantee so you re-engage before the desk goes quiet.
Built for the details
What a CRM for recruiters actually tracks
The records, fields, and stages a generic template leaves out — built in from your first prompt.
Candidates. a searchable pool tagged by skill, seniority, availability, and source.
Job orders. client roles with requirements and the pipeline of candidates against each.
Placements. start date, fee, and guarantee period, tied to the candidate and client.
Submissions. who you sent where, so you never double-submit or lose track of a client's shortlist.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is a recruiting CRM?
A recruiting CRM manages both sides of the desk — a searchable candidate pool and client roles — with a pipeline per job from sourced to placed. Kleap builds one around how you recruit.
How is it different from an ATS?
An ATS is fixed around job applications; a recruiting CRM built with Kleap models your candidate pool, client companies, pipelines, and placement fees exactly — and you own the data and code.
Can it track placements and fees?
Yes. It records placement details like start date, fee, and guarantee period so you can see revenue and manage fall-offs.
How is it different from Bullhorn or Loxo?
Bullhorn and Loxo are fixed recruiting platforms priced per seat. A custom recruiting CRM models your candidate pool, job orders, and placement fees exactly — and you own the data, with no per-recruiter tax.
Can it manage both candidates and client roles?
Yes. It runs a two-sided desk — a searchable candidate pool on one side, client companies and their open job orders on the other — with a pipeline per role from sourced to placed.
Can Kleap really build a CRM for recruiters?
Yes. Build a Recruiting CRM: Candidates, Pipelines, and Placements works by turning a plain-language description of how you operate into a working CRM — the contacts, pipeline stages, tasks, and reminders that fit recruiters, not a generic contact list.
How much does it cost to build a custom CRM?
A traditional custom-CRM build with a dev agency can cost tens of thousands of dollars. With Kleap you describe what you need and the AI builds it — free to start, so you skip the agency invoice.
Is it free to start?
Yes. You can describe your workflow, generate a working CRM, preview it live, and keep refining it in chat for free. Advanced options like a custom domain and the enterprise build service are paid.
Do I need to design a database or write code?
No. You describe what you track in your own words and Kleap builds the app. You refine it by chatting — no schema design, no spreadsheets, no code.
What if I want experts to build and run it for me?
That's Kleap Enterprise. Our team scopes, builds, and maintains the CRM for you with custom integrations, SSO, dedicated support, an SLA, and a custom plan. Use the enterprise form on this page to start.
