26.04.2024
- One job title per search. Splitting a search into multiple ones with one title each produces results much faster, and also shows which searches are yielding matches, and which are not.
- To use multiple keywords in one search, you can:
- either add multiple searches
- or use modifiers in one search, for example, keyword1 OR keyword2 for LinkedIn (details)
- “Data sources” renamed to “Searches”, “Filters” and “Personas” to avoid confusion

- Different countries were separated to different searches for the same purpose – you can see first country results faster, before all countries searches have finished.
- Credits are charged per run, not per match, so, hopefully, you’ll get much more matches per credit.
- Previous matches are temporarily unavailable
16.04.2024
- The pricing model has changed to monthly run limits. A “run” is one job title, in one country, from one source, per day. To calculate your needed runs: (Number of Job Titles) x (Number of Countries) x (Number of Sources) x (Runs per Day) x (30 days)
- “Max credits daily” setting is removed since match count do not influence cost.
- You can now control how often runs are scheduled (and if they are scheduled at all) in each individual search settings.
