Tool purchases are easier to approve when recruiters quantify time lost to manual steps, not just feature gaps.

Track hours on manual search
Measure time spent building filters, paging through results, and re-checking previously seen profiles each week.
Include contact lookup time
Many teams undercount outreach prep. Add hours spent finding emails and phones outside the sourcing workspace.
Try this query in the live demo — 5 candidates, no signup required.
Estimate shortlist cycle time
Record how long it takes from search start to manager-ready export. Faster cycle time usually maps directly to hiring speed.
Compare against plan limits
If weekly profile views or contact usage exceed free limits regularly, calculate the cost of workflow interruption.
Use ROI before upgrade decisions
Translate saved hours into hiring capacity or cost avoidance. The ROI calculator on the Hyranse landing page is built for this scenario.
ROI conversations work best when they start with time metrics, not feature checklists.
