For contract, VA & managed-services staffing firms

Everything after
“placed.

Most recruiting software stops the moment someone's hired. Recruit Social runs everything after — the operations, the client and talent experience, and the money: timesheets, approvals, invoices, and the relationships that turn one placement into repeat business. It works alongside the ATS you already use.

Operations

Run the placement

Timesheets, approvals, onboarding, compliance, offboarding — the operations every ATS leaves out, handled in one place.

Experience

Wow both sides

Branded portals, logged messaging, check-ins, and birthday touches — clients and talent feel like your only account.

Money

Own the money flow

Branded invoices, AR aging, SOW budgets, earnings statements and 1099 tracking — with embedded payments on the roadmap.

Built for what happens after sourcing

Your ATS sources. Recruit Social does the rest.

Your ATS is great at finding candidates. Recruit Social owns the two relationships that actually win and keep the business — the clients you serve and the talent you place — so every placement turns into a great experience and the next contract.

The client side

From placement to renewal

  • A real CRM: every contact with call notes, follow-ups & pipeline
  • A branded portal: their placed team, open roles & submitted candidates
  • Approve timecards & PTO; see daily work as it happens
  • Track SOW/PO budgets and invoicing with AR aging
  • Satisfaction check-ins that flag at-risk accounts before they churn
+
The talent side

Every placement, fully run

  • A workspace with clock in/out, weekly timesheets & a daily work log
  • PTO requests, documents, IDs & monthly earnings statements
  • Onboarding compliance and offboarding before final pay
  • A monthly pulse that catches flight risk early
The client lifecycle

One continuous relationship, not three tools.

Winning a client, serving them well, and re-winning them all live in one place — so nothing goes cold between the sale and the next contract.

01 · Win

Pipeline & placement

Track prospects and follow-ups, then a roles & candidates board to move submittals to hired — alongside your ATS.

02 · Onboard

Start clean

Compliance checklist, documents & IDs, branded portals for the client and the new hire from day one.

03 · Run

The day-to-day

Timesheets & approvals, a daily work log clients can see, invoicing with AR aging, SOW/PO budgets, and monthly statements.

04 · Keep

Retain & renew

Satisfaction check-ins, at-risk flags, renewal reminders and client recaps — the continuity that earns the next contract.

Two front doors

A great experience on both sides.

One platform, two tailored views — so your clients and the people you place each get exactly what they need.

What runs after the placement

The operations an ATS leaves out.

The day-to-day of a contract or VA placement — billing, hours, budgets, retention — in one place, alongside your ATS.

Time

Timesheets & approvals

Clock in/out, weekly timesheets, and client-approved hours that flow straight into pay, statements, and invoices.

Billing

Invoicing & AR aging

Branded client invoices with paid/unpaid status and aging buckets — always know who owes you and what's overdue.

Budgets

SOW / PO tracker

Track invoicing against each project budget, with remaining spend and an over-budget flag clients can see too.

Transparency

Daily work log

Talent log what they accomplish each day; clients open their portal and see it done — no status-update emails.

Retention

Satisfaction & flight risk

Monthly client and talent pulses with at-risk and flight-risk flags, renewal reminders, and one-click account recaps.

Compliance

Onboarding, offboarding & 1099

Onboarding checklist, offboarding that gates final pay, and year-to-date 1099 totals with tax-form tracking.

CRM

Client CRM & pipeline

Every client and hiring-manager contact with call notes, follow-ups, birthdays, and a deal pipeline — from first conversation to renewal.

Bench

Talent pool & skills

A searchable bench tagged by skill, so when a role comes in you re-engage the right past talent in seconds.

Command

Your day in one screen

A Today view surfaces every approval, overdue invoice, at-risk account, and reminder the moment you log in — and ⌘K search jumps to any client, talent, or deal in a keystroke.

Insight

Reports & margin

Revenue by client, margin by placement, pipeline by stage, win rate, fill rate, and AR aging — the numbers that run the firm, kept internal and never shown to clients.

Messages

Logged messaging

Message clients and talent right on the record — threads live with the relationship and in the portals, so nothing gets lost in email.

AI

AI that keeps clients close

One click drafts the right follow-up from the live record — a check-in naming their team, a payment nudge with the amount, a renewal ask before it lapses, a 1:1 invite when a pulse dips. The white-glove touch of a big firm, without the headcount.

Who it's for

Built for ongoing placements, not one-and-done.

Made for contract, virtual-assistant, and managed-services staffing firms — where the work doesn't end at the hire. You bill every month, the talent works every day, and the relationship is the business. If you live on repeat clients and a great post-placement experience, this is the layer that makes an independent firm feel like a premium one. A built-in role & candidate board is there if you want light pipeline tracking too — but the heart of it is everything after the placement.

Built by founders running active staffing firms, not in a software lab. Every feature exists because a real placement needed it.

Pricing

Pay for placements, not seats.

Unlimited teammates. Unlimited clients. Portal logins are always free. Your plan is set by one number — how many placements you're actually running — because that's when you're making money too.

An “active placement” is a person currently working a contract you manage. Bench, candidates, past placements, and direct (one-time-fee) placements never count.

Common questions

Quick answers.

Does it replace my ATS?

No — and that's the point. Keep sourcing in Zoho, Bullhorn, or wherever you work today. Recruit Social picks up the moment someone is placed: portals, timesheets, invoicing, compliance, and the client relationship.

What counts as an active placement?

A person currently working a contract you manage. Your bench, candidates, past placements, and one-time direct placements never count toward your plan — load your whole talent pool for free.

What do my clients see in their portal?

Only their own team: timecards to approve, PTO requests, daily work logs, budgets, invoices, and shared documents — branded with your firm's logo and colors. Never talent pay rates, your margins, or any other client's information.

How long does setup take?

Same day. Add your clients and talent, send portal invites, and you're running. Moving from spreadsheets, Notion, or Zoho? We help you import.

Can clients pay invoices through it?

Today you get branded invoices, AR aging, and payment tracking. Embedded card/ACH payments via Stripe are on the roadmap — Scale customers get first access.

How is my data secured?

Your workspace lives in Supabase (SOC 2 Type 2, AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS in transit, daily backups, AWS infrastructure). Access is gated by a passwordless magic-link login plus a per-firm members allowlist enforced at the database level — strangers can't read your data even if they guess the URL. Client and talent portals only see their own records, never your margins or other accounts. For ultra-sensitive items like government IDs and bank details, we recommend keeping the actual files in your existing storage (Google Drive, etc.) and tracking only the status in Recruit Social — application-level encryption and per-record permissions for those are on the Phase 2 roadmap.

Make every client feel like your only client.
