Key takeaway: Pin (pin.com) publishes four plans (pricing page checked August 2026): Free at $0, Solo at $99 per month billed annually, Professional at $135 per user/month billed annually ($179 month-to-month) with unlimited seats, and a custom-priced Business tier with unlimited contact credits. Pin bundles AI sourcing, outreach, and interview scheduling into every paid tier, which makes it one of the cheaper published entry points among AI recruiting tools, with contact-credit limits as the main thing to check.
What does Pin cost in 2026?
From pin.com/pricing (accessed August 2026):
| Plan | Price | Seats | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|

What is included in each Pin plan?
All paid plans include AI candidate sourcing, contact enrichment, multi-channel outreach sequences, and interview scheduling. The tiers scale on contact credits, seats, and support: Solo is one seat on annual billing, Professional adds unlimited seats at a per-user rate, and Business removes credit caps and adds premium support. As with every credit-metered tool, the effective price depends on how many contacts you actually reveal per month, so model your sourcing volume before choosing a tier. Buyers we talk to rank pricing structure, including per-user costs and credit mechanics, among their top evaluation questions, and Pin's page is unusually transparent about both.
What are Pin's pricing limitations?
Contact-credit caps below Business: unlimited credits only arrive on the custom tier, so heavy sourcing teams should price Business, not Professional.
Annual-only discounting: Solo requires annual billing, and Professional's $135 rate is the annual price; month-to-month is $179.
Index-based sourcing: Pin searches an aggregated profile index. A common misconception among buyers is that all AI sourcing tools search the open web; coverage differs by function and geography, so test on your own roles.
Younger platform: Pin is newer than SeekOut or hireEZ, with a shorter integration and enterprise track record; see our Noon vs Pin comparison for detail.
How does Pin compare to Noon AI?
Pin and Noon are the two products in this category that bundle sourcing, outreach, and scheduling rather than selling search alone, so the comparison comes down to depth and pricing model. Noon's AI Sourcer searches the whole web and evaluates candidates against a hiring bar calibrated from thumbs-up/down feedback, with strict non-negotiables the AI never relaxes; AI Outreach covers email, LinkedIn, and SMS; the AI Scheduler books interviews and answers candidate questions; and an AI Interviewer runs voice screening interviews, which Pin does not offer.
On pricing structure, Pin meters contact credits below its custom tier. Noon sells one plan with unlimited sourcing, contacts, agents, and seats, no credits and no per-seat fees, quoted per team at noon.ai/pricing. Teams weighing the two can book a demo and compare candidate quality on a live role, which is the criterion recruiters consistently tell us decides these evaluations.
