About Greenhouse Sourcing Automation

Outbound where your ATS already lives

Greenhouse Sourcing Automation (built on the Interseller acquisition) adds the outbound loop natively to the ATS most tech companies already run: email finding, verified contact data, and multi-step sequences that live inside Greenhouse projects, with every touch logged against the candidate record automatically. For Greenhouse shops, that native fit is the whole pitch — no sync glue, no second system of record, recruiter adoption inside a familiar UI.

Capabilities cover the essentials well: extension capture from LinkedIn, lookup credits for contact discovery, sequencing with reply detection, and team-level visibility to prevent double-touching. Depth-seekers will find edges: no standalone talent database (you bring candidates), cadences are email-only, and analytics inherit Greenhouse's reporting rather than adding sourcing-specific depth.

The buying question is simple: if you're on Greenhouse and want solid outbound without another vendor, it's the path of least resistance; if outbound is a competitive weapon, dedicated platforms still out-tool it.
