Atlas ATS is a long-running staffing-agency ATS for executive search and contingent recruiters. Vitae is the modern, AI-native alternative for agencies that want their workflow to be run by agents, not just stored in a database.
Atlas is a candidate database. Vitae is a candidate database plus agents that find, qualify, and message new candidates without you opening a search.
Sub-second loads, keyboard-first, no 2010-era page reloads. Your recruiters will not need a week of training.
First-round screens at scale, scored against your rubric. Atlas has no equivalent.
Vitae is transparent and predictable. Atlas is quote-only and tends to bundle features into higher tiers.
We mark accent for Vitae wins, neutral for ties, and credit Atlas where it still leads.
Short answers to the questions we get most often. Need more detail? Talk to sales.
