Why is your fee lower than typical agencies?

Because AI handles first-round screening, which is the largest single consumer of recruiter hours in a traditional agency. Every applicant is interviewed and scored automatically rather than the first twenty being phone-screened by someone with limited hours, and we pass that saving through.

Does Hyring have offices across the US?

No. Our only US office is on Market Street in San Francisco, and we say so on every location page rather than implying branches. Delivery elsewhere is remote-first, which suits professional and technical hiring and does not suit on-site volume staffing.

Which service should we use?

Under eight permanent hires a year, direct hire at 14%. Eight to twenty, RPO usually costs less. Capacity for a defined period, staff augmentation. Director level or confidential, executive search. Hiring abroad without an entity, employer of record. Our staffing solutions page publishes the cost curves behind those thresholds.

How fast do shortlists arrive?

Typically 48 to 72 hours, with AI interview recordings and calibrated scores attached. Screening starts the day candidates apply rather than when a recruiter has capacity, which is what makes that speed possible at this fee level.

What roles do you not staff?

Warehouse floor, hospitality shifts, event crew, skilled trades, same-day dispatch work, and licensed clinical positions. Those need local branch infrastructure or credentialing systems we do not operate, and a specialist agency will serve you better.

Can we use several services at once?

Yes, and most hiring plans should. Four engineers on staff augmentation, a VP through executive search, and eight permanent roles under an RPO programme is a normal quarter, and it runs under one agreement and one portal rather than four vendor relationships.

Replacement commitment

Hyring is an AI-native staffing agency serving US employers across six services: direct hire at a flat 14% of base salary, RPO, staff augmentation in the US and abroad, nearshore delivery from Latin America, employer of record, and executive search. Every candidate completes an AI first-round interview before your team reviews them, and shortlists arrive in 48 to 72 hours.

Our US office is on Market Street in San Francisco, and it is the only one we operate in the country. We say that on every page rather than implying a branch network we do not have, because it determines what we are good at. Remote-first delivery suits professional, technical, and corporate hiring. It does not suit high-volume on-site industrial staffing, and the last section of this page says so plainly.

The Six Services

Direct hire, RPO, staff augmentation, nearshore, employer of record, and executive search, under one agreement and one portal.

Two adjacent pages cover the cross-cutting questions: staffing solutions compares the models against each other with cost curves, and global staffing covers recruiting across the US, UK, Europe, UAE, Latin America, and India from one agreement.

Which One You Need

Four questions route most requirements, and most hiring plans need more than one service at once.

What Each One Costs

On a $130,000 role, first-year cost ranges from about $9,500 under an RPO programme to about $65,000 under typical contract staffing.

Every figure above is published rather than quoted, which is unusual in this industry and deliberate. The two clauses that most often make an apparently competitive quote expensive are the fee basis, base salary or total compensation, and the conversion fee when a contractor becomes permanent. Ours are 14% of base and no conversion fee, stated here rather than in a schedule at the back of an agreement.

Fact

90-day replacement commitment. If a placed hire leaves within 90 days, we replace them under the agreed terms. Ask any agency whether their guarantee provides a replacement or a refund, and over what period, because those are materially different commitments that get conflated in most contracts.

What Makes Ours Different

Every candidate is interviewed by AI before submission, sourced by thousands of recruiting partners, and tracked in one portal.

Round one, already done

Every candidate completes an AI first round before you see them: video, coding, phone, or the English test.

Every applicant ranked

The AI Resume Screener scores the full funnel against your brief, so nothing strong gets buried under volume.

Thousands of recruiters

The Recruiting Partners network works each role nationally, paid on placements, every submission passing the same screen.

Panel rounds in Hyring Meet

Interviews are scheduled and held in Hyring Meet, so invites and recordings stay attached to the candidate record.

One portal, no chasing

Every candidate uploaded with recording and score, clear stages your whole team sees, feedback on the profile instead of an email thread.

Transparency after the hire

Augmented teams run on Insight by Hyring, employees seeing their own data first. SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified.

The commercial consequence is why the fee can be 14% rather than 25%. First-round screening is the largest single consumer of recruiter hours in a traditional agency, and automating it properly removes most of that cost. We pass the difference through instead of keeping it, which is the whole business model rather than an introductory offer.

Markets and Specialisms

Twenty-five US metros, eleven state guides, and seventeen functional specialisms, each with verified local employment data.

Metros: New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Austin, Boston, Seattle, Atlanta, Denver, Miami, Phoenix, San Diego, San Jose, Raleigh, Washington DC, Philadelphia, Detroit, Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Orlando, and Las Vegas.

States: California, Texas, Florida, Washington, Massachusetts, Michigan, Georgia, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Minnesota. Unsure whether local matters? Our near me guide answers that directly.

Specialisms: IT, engineering, SaaS, accounting, finance, sales, marketing, HR, legal, remote, temp and contract, healthcare, construction, warehouse, and events.

Where We Are the Wrong Choice

On-site industrial, hospitality, trades, and same-day dispatch staffing need local branch infrastructure we do not operate.

We do not staff warehouse floors, hospitality shifts, event crew, skilled trades, or anything requiring same-day replacement. That work runs on local rosters and dispatch capability, which is a genuinely different operation from ours, and firms built for it do it far better than we would. If that is your requirement, a local agency is the right answer and the honest recommendation.

We also say no to licensed clinical staffing, since it requires credentialing infrastructure we have not built, and we tell clients when their hiring volume has outgrown agency fees entirely and an internal recruiting team would cost less. Those conversations cost us revenue in the short term and are the reason the relationships that remain are ones we are actually right for.

FAQs

A flat 14% of base first-year salary for direct hire and executive search, published rather than quoted. RPO and staff augmentation price roughly 30% below big-firm quotes, and employer of record is per employee per month. There is no conversion fee if a contractor becomes permanent.
