Loxo Review
4.6(168)Talent intelligence platform with an 850M+ profile sourcing database
Loxo bundles the CRM with a massive talent database and outreach engine, letting outbound-heavy firms drop separate sourcing subscriptions. For exec search it's a category of one; for temp staffing it's the wrong tool, and the sticker price sits near the top of the SMB segment, especially since Loxo Source needs the $199 Professional tier.

Loxo pricing
Annual plans only, paid up front; there is no monthly contract. Core, the entry tier, is $149/user/mo and Professional is $199/user/mo, both billed annually and both labelled a limited-time offer for new customers. Enterprise is a custom annual agreement. Professional includes 2,500 data credits per seat each month. Third-party sites still quote older $109 and $169 prices, which the vendor page supersedes. There is no free tier any more; the trial is 7 days on the Professional platform (vendor pricing page, Sep 2026).
