◆ Compare · Vouch vs Jobylon
Vouch vs Jobylon. AI-native, not branded-templates-first.
Jobylon is a Nordic ATS that leads with employer branding and customized templates, tuned for 500–5000-person companies with established hiring teams. Vouch is the AI-native ATS where one brief drives the screening, the Notetaker, the outreach, with intelligent qualifiers, not six pre-built triggers.

◆ What we built around
Three things, plainly stated.
- 01
The next role should start ahead of the last one.
Vouch keeps what it learns about a candidate: the screening evidence, the notes, the interview transcript. Open a new role and the people you already looked at come back up, with the reasoning attached, whether or not anyone remembered to file them correctly at the time. Nobody has to maintain that for it to work.
- 02
The AI does the reading, so your team doesn't.
Most in-house teams are one or two people covering every opening. Vouch drafts the brief from a conversation, screens each applicant against your own criteria with a quote behind every verdict, sits in the interview and writes the notes. You get a shortlist worth reading instead of an evening of CVs. Hiring matters. It just isn't supposed to be your whole week.
- 03
Set it up yourself, on a Tuesday.
Add a screening question, change a qualifier, wire a new template, without raising a ticket and waiting. Onboarding runs in days, not a rollout project, and you can start with a single role. When advanced setup needs the vendor's hand, your hiring cadence is gated on someone else's queue.
◆ Questions to ask yourself
Short answers, about us.
- 01
How much of this has to run on your team's own discipline?
In Vouch every score lands with a verbatim evidence quote, readable reasoning and a click-through to what fed it, so the audit trail is a byproduct of doing the work. Any workflow that depends on people filing and tagging consistently audits cleanly right up until a busy quarter, and that's not a discipline problem, it's a design one.
- 02
Is the work you did on a candidate still worth something next year?
In Vouch, screening someone isn't a one-off. The evidence, the notes and the interview transcript stay on the record, and the next role you open surfaces the people you already assessed, matched on what you actually need rather than on how they were filed. This is the part that compounds while you're not looking.
- 03
How do you get a shortlist in front of a hiring manager?
As one live link. Share a whole stage or a selection you pick by hand, keep editing it after sending, and set exactly what's visible and to whom. The link tracks the pipeline instead of freezing at the moment you sent it.
- 04
Self-serve setup, or support tickets to change a field?
In Vouch the recruiter controls the brief, the qualifiers, the screening, directly. When advanced changes need the vendor's involvement, your hiring cadence is gated on someone else's queue.
- 05
Evaluation that works in any language, or one branded version per market?
Vouch reads each CV in the language it was written in, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, English. Brief, screening, Notetaker, outreach, all language-agnostic. If you'd rather maintain a branded version per market and reconcile by hand, that's a different shape of working.
◆ Pricing posture
Vouch is priced per package: agency, in-house team or startup, with the number agreed in one short conversation and put in writing. Seats, roles, candidates and storage are unlimited, and there is no per-seat fee. You can start free on real roles before talking to anyone, with the whole product live and a trial cap on usage.
Jobylon doesn't publish pricing. It's quoted per organisation and shaped by size and setup, with implementation and support part of what you're buying. Worth pinning down the full first-year number, setup included, before procurement closes.
◆ What moving actually involves
The honest version of switching.
The question that decides this is never "is it better", it's "what do we lose, and who does the work?" Migration is free on paid packages, onboarding runs in days, and you can start with one role while everything else stays where it is.
- Candidates, CVs and attachments come across. On import you're asked on what basis you hold the list, which sets the retention window and goes into the audit log.
- Full process history from another system doesn't transfer cleanly, and we won't pretend otherwise. Everything you do in Vouch from day one stays reusable.
- You don't need a project team. Start with your next opening, keep the old system running, and compare.
- Mid-contract is fine. Plan around the renewal date and have the evidence ready before the window opens.
◆ When each one fits
Honestly.
Pick Vouch if…
- Nobody on your team is a full-time recruiter, and you want the screening work actually handled.
- You want the next role to start from everything you learned on the last one.
- You want to set it up yourselves this week, not schedule a rollout.
Run both if…
You're committed to Jobylon for the branded career site. Vouch can sit in front for the brief, the multi-language ad, screening with evidence, the Notetaker and the shortlist you share out. Jobylon keeps the brand storefront until the renewal cycle opens.
Pick Jobylon if…
- You're a large employer with a brand team, and the career-site visuals are the headline requirement.
- Your hiring is high-volume and repeatable, and the existing automation covers your real rules.
- You have the procurement runway for a customised rollout, and you'd rather the vendor own setup than do it yourselves.
