turrior vs Indeed: pay-per-post resumes vs pay-per-result video applicants
Indeed charges $150–$300+ a month to boost a post that returns mostly unfiltered resumes. turrior's AI agent screens every applicant on video and you pay $1 per screening — only for results.
Indeed is the default answer when a small business needs to hire — and the default source of hiring frustration. You pay to sponsor a post, you get a flood of applications within hours, and then you spend the next two weeks discovering that most of them never read the role.
What Indeed actually sells you
- A sponsored listing, typically $150–$300+ per month to stay visible
- Volume: hundreds of applications, mostly unscreened
- Keyword-filtered resumes — and AI-generated resumes pass keyword filters perfectly
- Your time as the screening layer: you read, you call, you discover the mismatch
What turrior does differently
turrior is not a job board with a better filter. It is an AI hiring agent: it posts your role to 200+ job boards (including the big ones), then screens every applicant with a structured video interview built from your requirements. You never see a resume pile. You open a review queue of video applicants and pick who you like.
- Price: $1 per screening, no subscription, no monthly post fee
- Signal: recorded video answers, not AI-polished PDFs
- Effort: the agent sources and interviews; you only decide
- Control: you watch every applicant and choose who advances — nothing is hidden behind a recruiter's shortlist
The cost math
A month of sponsored posting on Indeed at $250 returns, generously, 40 applicants worth screening — and you do the screening yourself. With turrior, those same 40 video screenings cost $40, and the hours you would have spent reading resumes go back to running your business.
“I stopped reading resumes completely. I watch three or four videos, pick the person I like, and we start the same week.”
When Indeed still makes sense
If you need walk-in, same-city, hourly staff tomorrow, a local Indeed post can work. But for remote roles where quality matters more than speed-to-apply, paying for volume and screening it yourself is the expensive option — it just hides the cost in your calendar.
