Fewer applications.
More serious ones.
On Koali, candidates pay a small credit to apply. That changes everything. Before spending it, they assess their own fit. By the time an application reaches you, that person has already done more due diligence than 90% of applicants on a typical board. You get a small, deliberate pool, not a pile of CVs from people who barely read the listing.
One flat fee.
No placement costs.
Access is subscription-based. Once active, you can post listings, review applicants, and confirm hires. No per-placement billing, ever.

Volume is not
a feature.
Traditional job boards optimise for volume. You pay upfront and receive hundreds of unfiltered applications. Koali works differently: quality is the only metric that matters.
The application credit is the quality filter
you never had.
When applying is free, candidates apply to everything, and you receive everything. A small credit changes the entire dynamic. Here is exactly how.
The noise disappears
On a free job board, applying costs nothing, so candidates apply to everything. You end up wading through a pile of CVs from people who barely read your listing. The application credit changes the calculation entirely.
Candidates arrive pre-qualified
Before spending a credit, candidates assess their own fit. They read the role, research your company, and choose deliberately. By the time an application reaches you, that person has already done more due diligence than 90% of applicants on a typical board.
Commitment from day one
A candidate who paid to apply is more likely to respond, more likely to show up, and more likely to follow through. Skin in the game produces a fundamentally different type of applicant pool.
Post. Review. Place.
Request access
Submit your details and we verify your identity and company. Typically completed within 1 to 2 business days.
Post a role
Activate your recruiter subscription, create a listing, and set your own application cap. Your role is live once your account is verified and the listing is published.
Review a tight pool
Receive a small number of motivated applicants. Everyone in the pool paid to apply to your role specifically.
Hire without extra fees
Placements are tracked inside Koali for reporting, but they do not create a new invoice. Your subscription covers the posting workflow.
Simple, predictable pricing.
No placement fees. Ever.

How does verification work?
We manually verify every recruiter before they can post a live role. The process confirms your identity, company, and that you are a legitimate hiring professional. It typically takes 1 to 2 business days.
How does recruiter pricing work?
Recruiters pay a flat monthly subscription to create and publish listings on Koali. Once the subscription is active, placements are tracked for reporting only. No success fees, no per-hire billing.
What are the SLA requirements?
You commit to responding to every application within 10 business days. Our system tracks every deadline automatically and surfaces at-risk applications in your dashboard before they become an issue.
Can I set my own application cap?
Yes. You set the cap when creating or editing a listing. Once it is reached, the listing closes automatically. We recommend keeping it tight: smaller pools tend to produce higher-quality hires.
Stop sorting noise.

Request access today. We verify every recruiter before a role goes live, typically within 1 to 2 business days. Your first listing can be live the same week.
