YOUR NEXT CHAPTER
Atlas fits search firms that want AI to record and search every call and meeting, and that accept a year's commitment. Longlist fits agencies that want a lower seat price, monthly terms and built-in calling, and can do without call recording. The question is how much the AI capture is worth to your desk.
We compared Atlas Basic, Premium and Agency & Enterprise, plus Atlas product pages at recruitwithatlas.com, with Longlist Growth and Plus. Checked October 16, 2026; USD prices shown.

THE DETAILS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
Two of these come from reviews on G2. The third is on Atlas's own pricing page.

Reviewers mention they can't add a custom industry or colour-code activities. In Longlist you organise records with tags and tag groups.

PUT IT INTO PRACTICE
Most of the work is timing and deciding what to do with recordings. The import itself is free.
Atlas plans run on a 12-month commitment whatever the billing frequency. Check your start date and renewal terms, and plan go-live for when the year ends.
Atlas doesn't publish a bulk export format, though it has an Open API. Ask for candidates, contacts, companies, opportunities, notes and CV files.
Longlist logs calls without recording them. Keep Atlas recordings and transcripts in an archive, or ask us to bring transcripts across as notes on each candidate.
We map and import your records and parse the CVs. Then you recreate the sequences you still use and connect Gmail or Outlook.
Atlas Basic is $125 annual / $150 monthly per user/month and Premium is $165 annual / $200 monthly, each on a 12-month commitment. Longlist Growth is $47 billed annually or $59 monthly, and Plus is $65 or $79. See pricing.
Atlas says every plan runs on a 12-month commitment, including monthly billing, so read your order form for the end date. Longlist monthly plans have no annual commitment.
No. Calls on Plus are logged with direction, status and duration. Longlist doesn't record or transcribe them.
Yes. The Chrome extension looks up contact details through Apollo and Prospeo on supported profiles. Results vary by profile and market.
Our side is free. We map the export, import records and CVs, and check them with you. Ask Atlas which export format it can provide.
