Looking for a Bullhorn alternative? Here is how Pyro compares.
Bullhorn is the largest platform for staffing agencies. Pyro is built around the hiring work in between: a graded posting, screening with its reasoning shown, ARIA’s first round and a live copilot for the human round, with no per-seat licence.
Pyro and Bullhorn, side by side.
Bullhorn, in its own words.
Bullhorn describes itself as an AI recruitment ATS and CRM used by more than 10,000 staffing agencies, from small firms to the largest in the world. Alongside the ATS and CRM it offers a middle office for pay and bill, and a marketplace of more than 300 technology partners.
Its AI, called Amplify, includes search and match, AI screening by voice or text, and call transcription. Pricing is published per user for its Starter and Core plans, with higher tiers by quote.
What Pyro brings to an agency.
How agencies use Pyro alongside Bullhorn.
Many agencies keep the system that runs their back office and add Pyro where the hiring work happens: grading the posting before it goes live, searching the CVs they already own, screening applicants with the reasoning shown, and running first rounds with ARIA.
In the human round, Pyro’s copilot sits beside the interviewer in Pyro’s interview room, and the draft scorecard comes back with quotes and timestamps. Every shortlisted candidate carries the evidence behind them.
Asked often.
Does Bullhorn have an AI interviewer?
Yes. Bullhorn’s Amplify Screen runs voice or text screenings. ARIA runs spoken first rounds with follow-ups, and every rating links to the answer behind it.
Does Bullhorn have a live copilot for interviewers?
Bullhorn describes Live Transcribe, in early access, which fills in answers to a prep sheet during the call. Pyro’s copilot also drafts follow-ups and tracks coverage of the criteria.
How is Pyro priced compared with Bullhorn?
Bullhorn prices per user, from $99 to $165 a month on its published plans. Pyro has no per-seat licence: usage plus a fee when you hire.
Can Pyro run beside Bullhorn?
Yes. Many agencies keep their current system and use Pyro for screening, first-round interviews and the human round.
Is Pyro built for staffing agencies?
Yes. Pyro is built for recruitment agencies and startups: client postings in the client’s voice, search of the CVs you already own, screening against each client’s criteria and a first-round interviewer.
Does Pyro grade job postings for bias?
Yes. Every posting is graded section by section before it goes live, biased wording is flagged with a fix, and a posting with an age limit or protected-group targeting cannot publish.
How quickly can a Bullhorn agency try Pyro?
In days, on one live role. Describe the role, connect the folder where your CVs live, and run it through Pyro beside your current process.
