Sound familiar?
Recruiting shouldn't feel this hard
Sourcing is time-consuming
Hours spent scrolling through LinkedIn profiles, writing Boolean strings, and still ending up with the same candidates as everyone else.
AI shortlists in seconds
Low response rates
Generic InMails get ignored. You send dozens of messages and hear back from almost no one. Outreach feels like shouting into the void.
AI-personalized multi-channel outreach
LinkedIn limits hold you back
InMail credits run out, search results are capped, and you're stuck behind a paywall. Your talent pool shouldn't depend on one platform.
870M+ profiles beyond LinkedIn

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How does the candidate sourcing work?
Leonar aggregates data from 30+ platforms including LinkedIn, GitHub, and Stack Overflow into a single searchable database of 870M+ profiles. You can use Boolean search or our AI-powered matching to find candidates that perfectly match your requirements.
Can I connect Leonar to my existing ATS?
Yes. Leonar integrates natively with major ATS platforms including Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, and more. All candidate data syncs automatically so you never have duplicate entries or manual data transfer.
What channels does the outreach support?
You can build automated sequences combining Email, LinkedIn (connection requests, InMails, messages), and SMS. Each step can be personalized with AI and scheduled for optimal delivery times.
Is there a free trial?
Yes, we offer a 14-day free trial with full access to all features including sourcing, outreach sequences, and the CRM. No credit card required to start.
How is Leonar different from LinkedIn Recruiter?
LinkedIn Recruiter limits you to LinkedIn data and basic InMails. Leonar gives you access to 870M+ profiles across 30+ sources, multi-channel automated outreach, a collaborative CRM, and advanced analytics, all in one platform at a fraction of the cost.
Can I connect an AI assistant like ChatGPT or Claude to Leonar?
Yes. Leonar includes a built-in MCP server that lets AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, or custom agents connect directly to your recruiting data. Your AI agent can source candidates, manage pipelines, send outreach, and pull analytics, all in natural language.
Do I need technical skills to use AI agents with Leonar?
Not at all. Connecting an AI assistant to Leonar takes three steps: generate an API key, add the server configuration, and start asking your assistant to recruit for you. No coding required. The setup takes minutes.
What is an AI-powered recruiting platform?
An AI-powered recruiting platform combines candidate sourcing, automated outreach, and CRM capabilities into a single workspace designed for modern talent acquisition teams. Instead of juggling separate tools for finding candidates, sending messages, tracking pipelines, and collaborating with hiring managers, a recruiting platform like Leonar centralizes every step of the hiring process. AI augments every stage: from discovering qualified profiles across 870 million candidates to generating personalized outreach messages that get replies.
From candidate sourcing to signed offer: one platform for the full recruiting cycle
Most recruiting teams piece together a stack of disconnected tools: LinkedIn Recruiter for sourcing, a separate email tool for outreach, spreadsheets for tracking, and an ATS for compliance. Each handoff between tools creates friction, data loss, and delays. Leonar replaces this fragmented approach with a single recruiting platform that covers the entire hiring workflow. Source candidates from LinkedIn, GitHub, and 30+ databases. Build multi-channel outreach sequences combining email, LinkedIn, and SMS. Track every candidate through a visual pipeline with real-time analytics. Whether you are a staffing agency managing dozens of mandates or an internal talent team filling critical roles, every action happens in one place.
Why recruiting teams switch from LinkedIn Recruiter to Leonar
LinkedIn Recruiter is familiar, but it locks you into a single data source with limited automation. Leonar gives you access to 870 million profiles across 30+ platforms, not just LinkedIn. Our AI sourcing engine matches candidates to your requirements and ranks them by relevance, so you spend less time searching and more time engaging the right people. Automated multi-channel sequences reach candidates where they are most responsive, whether that is email, LinkedIn, or SMS. And with a built-in CRM, your team maintains a shared history of every interaction, ensuring no candidate falls through the cracks. Teams using Leonar report cutting their sourcing time by more than half while improving response rates across every channel.
Seamless integrations with your existing recruiting stack
Leonar connects natively with the tools your team already uses. Sync candidates bidirectionally with your ATS, whether you run Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, or Teamtailor. Connect your calendar for one-click interview scheduling. Push analytics to your reporting dashboards. And with a full REST API and MCP server for AI agents, technical teams can build custom workflows or let AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT source candidates and manage pipelines autonomously.
Built for every type of recruiting team
Leonar adapts to the way your team works. Recruitment agencies use it to manage multiple client mandates with separate pipelines and shared candidate pools. Internal talent acquisition teams rely on it as a sourcing and engagement layer on top of their existing ATS. Executive search firms leverage confidential pipelines and a client portal to run retained searches with full transparency. Whatever your hiring model, Leonar provides the sourcing depth, outreach automation, and collaboration tools you need to fill roles faster.
