Giig

Giig is an AI recruitment CRM and ATS in one, built for recruitment agencies of 1 to 20 people. It puts AI where recruiters actually spend their day: searching the database, writing to clients, formatting CVs and keeping records up to date.

Ask Giig lets you ask your database questions in plain English, like "which candidates need my attention today?", with no filters or Boolean strings. Giig's Claude connector (MCP) goes a step further. Connect Claude and it can search, summarise and update your Giig records straight from a chat, so you can ask for a shortlist, prep for a client call or log a note without clicking through screens. It's full read and write, not read-only, and you choose exactly what Claude can see and change.

Underneath the AI sits a full recruitment CRM: candidates, clients, contacts and jobs, drag-and-drop pipelines for jobs and business development, CV parsing, branded CV formatting, a LinkedIn Chrome extension, bulk email and a free careers page. Multi-posting to 1,000+ job boards is available through Giig's idibu integration.

Giig was founded in 2020 by Luke Pitkin, who spent years running a recruitment desk before building software for it. It has a Free Forever plan for one user with unlimited candidates, clients and jobs, no trial period and no credit card. Paid plans are monthly, with no contract and no exit fees, and you can export your data whenever you like. Giig is rated 4.9 on Trustpilot by 350+ recruiters.
