The short answer: Arya is no longer a product you can buy. Leoforce, the company behind it, retired the Arya brand and rebranded to Leoforce on 3 February 2025 - Leoforce. The old goarya.com now redirects to leoforce.com.
That matters for your budget, because the pricing model changed with the name. The self-serve Arya Pulse plan, where you paid a few hundred dollars per job, is gone. What replaced it is a set of outcome-based services built for high-volume and enterprise hiring, and the cheapest tier Leoforce publishes a price for is $5,000 per month.
There is good news for buyers, though. Leoforce publishes considerably more pricing today than Arya ever did: two of its four main products now have a public rate card with real numbers on it. The other two are still quote-only.
We'll answer these questions for you:
- What happened to the Arya plans?
- What does it cost now?
- When is it worth paying for?
- What are the alternatives?
What happened to the Arya plans?
Arya sold two plans, and you will still see both quoted on review sites like G2, Capterra and TrustRadius. Neither exists on Leoforce's website any more, which is worth knowing before you walk into a call quoting a number you read somewhere.
Arya Pulse was the self-serve, pay-per-job product. You posted a role, Arya returned a ranked list of pre-qualified candidates with contact details, and you paid per job instead of per seat. Arya Quantum was the recurring subscription for teams hiring continuously, and its pricing was never published. Today goarya.com/arya-pulse redirects to Leoforce's high-volume hiring page and goarya.com/arya-quantum redirects to the general services page.
In their place, Leoforce sells six named products:
- Leoforce Source: programmatic job advertising that optimises for applicant quality rather than clicks
- Leoforce Capture: the closest heir to Pulse, where AI plus human recruiters pre-vet applicants and hand you an interview-ready shortlist
- Leoforce Convert: a career-site agent that turns site visitors into applicants
- Leoforce Rediscovery: always-on agents that re-match and re-engage the candidates already sitting in your ATS
- Leoforce Signal and Connect: an AI sales agent and a candidate engagement layer
The practical difference is bigger than the branding suggests. Arya sold you software that found candidates and left you to work them. Leoforce mostly sells you an outcome, with its own recruiters in the loop doing the screening. That shift, from tool to managed service, is the reason the entry price moved up by roughly an order of magnitude. It is not a price rise so much as a different thing being sold.
What does Arya cost now?
Leoforce publishes an all-in monthly rate card for Convert and Rediscovery, and quotes Source and Capture case by case. These figures are taken directly from the Leoforce pricing page - Leoforce.
Leoforce Convert is priced purely on your monthly career-site traffic, with no per-seat component:
| Monthly site traffic | All-in monthly cost |
|---|---|
| Up to 100,000 visitors | $8,000 |
| 100,001 to 250,000 visitors | $17,000 |
| 250,001 to 500,000 visitors | $32,000 |
| 500,001+ visitors | Custom quote |
Leoforce Rediscovery is priced on two axes at once: the size of your candidate database, and how many jobs you run against it each month.
| Database size | 100 jobs/mo | 500 jobs/mo | 1,000 jobs/mo |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 5 million records | $5,000 | $7,500 | $12,000 |
| 5 to 10 million records | $7,500 | $11,000 | $15,000 |
| Over 10 million records | Custom quote | ||
Leoforce Source and Leoforce Capture have no list price. Leoforce says Source is quoted on the number of jobs advertised, the industries and roles targeted, the locations, and how competitive the bidding market is. Capture adds a second layer on top of that: how strict the job qualifications are, how many qualified applicants exist in that market, and how complex the pre-screening assessments need to be. It is sold as a cost per qualified applicant.
Read the two rate cards together and the floor becomes clear. $5,000 per month is the least you can spend on a published Leoforce plan, and that buys the smallest Rediscovery tier. There is no tier below it, no free plan, and nothing resembling the old per-job option. Anyone still budgeting against the $599 per job figure that circulated in the Pulse era is working from a product that no longer exists.
HeroHunt.ai
If you landed here hoping to buy something like the old Arya Pulse (software that finds and ranks candidates, priced for a normal team) that product is gone, and $5,000 a month is a long way from a few hundred dollars per job. HeroHunt.ai sits in the category Arya actually competed in: it searches over 1 billion profiles, screens them against the role you are hiring for, and runs the outreach itself, so it replaces the sourcing half of what Pulse did. Two things it is not, because they matter here. It is not a system of record, so it sits alongside your ATS rather than replacing it, and if your real bottleneck was tracking candidates rather than finding them you are shopping in the wrong aisle. And it is software, not Leoforce Capture's managed service: no human recruiter is screening applicants on your behalf. If what you wanted was the work done rather than the tool, that is a different purchase.
When is it worth paying for?
Leoforce now makes sense for a specific buyer, and it is not the buyer the old Arya pricing used to attract. The published rate cards say plainly who they are for, if you read them as requirements rather than as prices.
Rediscovery's cheapest tier assumes you are running 100 jobs a month against a database of up to 5 million records. Convert's cheapest tier assumes up to 100,000 career-site visitors a month. If your careers page gets a few thousand visits and you have a dozen open roles, you are not the intended customer and the per-hire maths will not work out. The floor does not scale down to you.
It becomes a reasonable buy when you:
- Hire at genuine volume, in the hundreds of roles per year
- Sit on a large ATS database that is going stale and unworked
- Have real career-site traffic that is not converting into applications
- Want an outcome, not another tool your recruiters have to learn
- Can commit to a monthly floor rather than paying per role
Treat the vendor's own numbers with the usual caution. Leoforce claims Convert can cut time to hire by up to 50%, that Capture saves up to 20 hours per job, and that 92% of career-page visitors never complete an application. Those are marketing figures, not audited ones, and the ranges are wide for a reason. The single clause actually worth pinning down in a demo is Capture's definition of a qualified applicant: who decides that an applicant qualifies, on what criteria, and what happens when you disagree with the call. In a pay-per-qualified-applicant model that one definition determines what the service really costs you, and it is the only part of the quote you can meaningfully negotiate.
What alternatives do I have?
If the monthly floor rules Leoforce out, or you wanted Arya's software rather than Leoforce's service, there are three realistic directions. Which one fits depends on what you were buying Arya for in the first place: the sourcing AI, the system of record, or the reach.
- AI sourcing platforms: closest to what Arya originally was. HeroHunt.ai searches over 1 billion profiles and runs outreach autonomously, and starts free, which makes it a cheap way to test whether AI sourcing solves your problem before committing to a five-figure annual contract.
- An ATS with AI matching built in: the right move if your real bottleneck was tracking and organising candidates rather than finding them. Greenhouse, Lever and iCIMS are the established options, though all three quote by demo rather than publishing prices. Manatal is the budget-friendly one that does publish a number.
- LinkedIn Recruiter: still the deepest pool of professional profiles and the strongest InMail deliverability, at a per-seat cost that is high but predictable. It gives you reach, not automation.
The honest summary: the rebrand orphaned Arya's small and mid-market customers. If you were happily paying per job for Pulse, nothing in the current Leoforce lineup replaces it at that price, and your next tool is probably a sourcing platform or an ATS rather than a managed service.
If it is the ATS direction you want: Greenhouse, Lever and iCIMS all quote by demo, and so do Leoforce Source and Capture. Manatal publishes the number, $15 per user per month billed annually, though that tier caps at 15 active jobs and 10,000 candidates.
Pricing verified against Leoforce's own pricing page in July 2026. Leoforce does not publish rates for Source or Capture, and the published Convert and Rediscovery tiers can change without notice, so confirm any figure directly before you budget against it.
