Make decisions backed by real talent intelligence
Plenty of HR tools out there do good work. We just do it differently—and honestly, better for the right teams.
Headcount is more important than helping talent grow
Prefer gut feelings over actual data insights
Want AI to replace you entirely instead of giving you superpowers
Need every integration known to humanity (even the useless ones)
Make decisions backed by real talent intelligence
Spend less time on admin, more time on what matters
Actually be more productive instead of just talking about it
Lead the change instead of waiting for it to happen

We host your data wherever you need. We can host it in your own infrastructure or in our own cloud.
We use multiple open-source libraries and AI models, and we also contribute to the open-source community.

Plans & billing
Yes. Every paid plan includes a 14-day free trial, and you can also run a guided paid pilot with the team to validate fit on one workflow before committing to an annual contract. When you're ready, choose monthly or annual billing.
We use Stripe as our online payment provider, which facilitates card payments, link payments (links where you confirm you are paying), and Apple Pay for our users.We also offer international bank transfers, but you need to speak to the team so we can give you our bank details.
We do not hide the core cost drivers. Starter is 149€, Plus is 249€, Pro is 410€, and Scale is 730€ per HR Pro per month. AI usage is billed separately starting at 0.25€ per credit, and Employee Experience is 9€ per covered employee per month. A tailored proposal is available for larger or custom needs.
Security & data
Clous imports more than candidates. Use drop-and-import for PDFs, DOCX, XLSX, images, resumes, job descriptions, course catalogs, employee lists, and other exports. We map candidates, jobs, courses, employees, and other people data while you review privacy, access, and source context. Migration integrations are one-time imports, syncing integrations keep HRIS or ATS data current, context integrations retrieve supporting information from tools like Google Calendar, Microsoft OneDrive, and Slack, and application integrations let teams use Clous agents inside tools like GitHub, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Linear.
No, we don't train our AI with your data for several reasons. First, the cost of doing so would be very high. Second, we lack the expertise to effectively train AI with external data. Third, the current design of our product wouldn't see substantial improvement from this approach. Finally, many of our users prefer not to have their data used in this way. Therefore, we have chosen not to incorporate user data into our AI training process.
Keeping your data safe is our top priority. We make sure your info stays private and secure. We follow the best standards out there, with strict access control and encryption tech that keeps your data locked up tight. All these security measures work together to give your personal data the best protection possible. We're dedicated to data security, going beyond just following the rules. We're always on the lookout for any possible issues and fixing them before they become a problem.

Hiring intelligence at Clous is the application of AI and advanced data analytics to transform the recruitment process. It improves algorithms to recommend the best-fit candidates from existing data, automates scheduling interviews, and matches candidates to suitable positions even if they don't fit the original job opening. Our platform analyzes a long amount of data to provide insights, helping recruiters make data-driven decisions quickly and efficiently. This ensures an improved, efficient, and effective hiring process while connecting businesses with the best talent available.
Our software is designed to make it easy to hire talent: create and post job offers in just 3 clicks, use AI without compromising candidate experience, and move from candidate data to talent pipelines and interview scheduling faster. Clous gives hiring teams one hub for candidate context, shared documents, and coordinated actions, so everyone knows what is happening in the hiring process.
Our software is designed to work like a variety of tools you already use, like Calendly, ChatGPT, and LinkedIn. This means no more jumping between different apps, it combines these features to never mess up your workflow. We might be implementing new integrations as you demand them. But it will never be our main focus. Clous simplifies your workflow by bringing all your favorite tools together in one place. It allows for an easy transition and lets your team use familiar functionalities without any hassle.
Employee Experience AI (EX AI) is the experience layer inside Clous. It gives employees and candidates personalized guidance, profile and resume insights, growth plans, internal mobility paths, and opportunity recommendations while HR teams use Clous to coordinate hiring, skills, performance, learning, and workforce decisions. It is part of the platform, not a separately named assistant.
