When to choose each

Choose the plan that fits your team.

Nest works when one person owns the hire. Constellation fits once multiple teammates need shared visibility, reusable hiring presets, and stronger spending controls around ongoing AI work.

Choose Nest

You want fast self-serve access to talent, clear milestone funding, and a lighter client fee.

Choose Constellation

You hire across teams, need shared seats, and want more structure around shortlists and spend.

Hiring depth

Both plans keep real work moving cleanly.

Pricing is only part of the decision. The bigger question is how much support your team needs once a project is funded and work is underway.

Milestones stay visible

Each plan keeps funding, delivery, review, and payout release attached to the same contract.

Spend stays predictable

Estimator math is visible before you fund, so fee impact is clear before work starts.

Shortlists stay usable

Nest is self-serve. Constellation adds help for teams that need a tighter shortlist faster.

Support stays human

Both plans include support. Constellation moves faster when contracts span larger teams and higher spend.

Choose your plan

Pick the fee that fits how you hire.

Nest fits best when

  • One founder, hiring lead, or manager owns the hire.
  • You want direct search and shortlist control.
  • You need the lighter client fee and simpler approvals.

Constellation fits best when

  • Multiple stakeholders need access to the same hiring work.
  • You want clearer spend controls across ongoing contracts.
  • You need shortlist support and faster dispute handling.

Freelancer note

Fees should not muddy the delivery story.

Client fees stay on the client side. Freelancers still see the funded contract value, milestone structure, approvals, and payout timing clearly before work begins.

The point of pricing is not to hide costs. It is to keep funding decisions visible enough for clients to move with confidence and for freelancers to know exactly what work has been funded.

FAQ

Yes. Teams can start in Nest and move into Constellation when shared seats, spend controls, or shortlist support become more important.

These plan fees are client-side. Freelancers still see the contract value, funding pace, and milestone structure clearly when a project turns into active work.

Constellation is for teams with more than one hiring stakeholder, repeat work across departments, or a need for stronger spending structure and faster dispute handling.
