Replace JobAdder

jobadder.com

JobAdder, wholly owned by SEEK Limited (world's largest job board) since 2020, serves ~27,000 users across 4,500+ agencies in 45 countries with a clean ATS + CRM, 200+ job board integrations, and AI features added in late 2025. At €124/seat/month (Essential plan, confirmed EU quote, July 2026) a 13-seat agency crosses €19,000/year. SEEK's ownership creates a structural conflict of interest: a job board holding your candidate database, with roadmap decisions that serve SEEK's interests first. For UK/EU agencies the SEEK integration carries no benefit, leaving a textbook 'database + pipeline + email' rebuild as the core.

How we work together

Three steps, no surprises.

01

We scope what you use

We map the features your team actually relies on, not the whole bloated product.

02

We build & you co-fund

Senior engineers rebuild it AI-fast. Founders share the cost and shape the first release.

03

We launch & run it

We host and run it for you for a low fixed annual fee, with our support behind it.

Ownership model

What is actually yours.

What is yours

  • Your data, fully exportable
    Download everything, anytime. No vendor holds your history hostage.
  • A licence that outlives us
    Your contract includes a source-code escrow clause: the code is deposited with an independent escrow agent before go-live, so your access is contractually protected even if Rollout IT ever stops trading.
  • Your own isolated instance
    Separate servers, separate database, separate backups. Not shared infrastructure.

How the model stays fair

  • Platform IP stays with Rollout IT
    That is what keeps your build cost low and improvements flowing. You are not buying the source code, and you do not need to.
  • No per-seat. Price fixed for 10 years.
    Add your whole team for free. Your fee is locked from day one, no annual hikes.
  • We build it and run it
    Security patches, uptime, scaling: all covered by the flat annual fee. No developer retainer needed on your side.

What you keep from JobAdder

The features your team actually uses, scoped with you before the build, on infrastructure your team controls.

  • ATS pipeline: candidate tracking, activity logs, lifecycle management
  • CRM for client/BD pipeline and contact records
  • 200+ job board integrations including SEEK Talent Search Connect
  • AI features: Smart Summary, Smart Sync, Smart Job Descriptions (Nov 2025)
  • Email templates and bulk candidate communication
  • KPI dashboards and reporting (Essential tier+)

What we fix

The pain points that come with renting per-seat SaaS, gone on day one.

  • Per-seat pricing abolished: one flat annual fee, whole team included.
  • Annual price hikes eliminated: your fee is fixed for 10 years from day one.
  • Data no longer locked in, fully exportable anytime, no export fees.
  • Vendor dependency removed: your access is contractually protected, even if we stop trading.
  • Roadmap influence added: founding members shape the initial feature set.
