What is the difference between Cleyo and Paiger?
Cleyo is a business development platform for recruitment agencies that runs the whole path to a new client. Signals shows companies hiring now, People Search finds the decision maker with a verified email, and one sequence sends email and LinkedIn for you. Paiger drafts the outreach and sells verified emails as an add-on. In Cleyo the replies, CRM and analytics sit in the same place.
Is Cleyo a Paiger alternative?
Yes. If your goal is new clients, Cleyo takes you from the hiring signal to the reply in one tool. It finds companies hiring now, gets the decision maker's verified email and LinkedIn, writes from your playbook and sends from your own Gmail or Microsoft 365 and LinkedIn. Replies land in one inbox sorted by intent, with Reply Agent drafts that never send on their own.
How much does Paiger cost compared to Cleyo?
Paiger lists Business Development from £199 a month for 1 to 2 consultants up to £699 for 7 to 15, on a 12-month term with a setup fee from £150. Contact Finder for verified emails is an add-on. Cleyo publishes one price per seat: €99 a month on Growth or €199 on Agency, €84 and €169 billed yearly. Try the full Agency plan free for 30 days with 1,000 credits and no card, backed by a 90-day money-back guarantee.
Can Paiger send emails or LinkedIn messages for me?
Paiger's site describes drafting a LinkedIn DM, cold email and call opener for each account. Sending and sequences are not described. Cleyo sends for you: email from your own Gmail or Microsoft 365 plus LinkedIn connection requests, messages and InMails in one sequence, automatically or as to-dos, in the recipient's business hours. It stops the moment someone replies.
Does Paiger integrate with my CRM or ATS?
Paiger hands job leads back to your CRM, and its site does not name which CRMs it connects to. Cleyo has its own CRM with Smart Lists and analytics built in, a live two-way sync with Loxo, and Bullhorn, Vincere, Recruit CRM, JobAdder and Manatal on the way.
