Most placements go out without a reference.
‍

You run a temp or labour hire desk. Placements land fast, candidates move faster, clients want CVs the same day. References would protect you on every placement. But at $15 to $50+ a check, they get skipped on everything except the senior roles.

So you carry the risk. A worksite incident, a client asking for documentation that doesn't exist, a consultant who skipped a check on a Friday because the placement was due Monday. The reference would have flagged it. It just didn't get done.

You're not cutting corners. You've been priced out.

Priced for how your desk runs

Brindle changes the model, not the workflow.

Flat monthly plans, sized to your placement volume

Team size points you to a tier, not a per-consultant charge

The cost per placement stops being a decision, so you reference every one

CV templating included on annual plans

How it works

Set it up once. Run it on every placement.

1. Set up your template once

One reference template, configured for your desk, then reused on every placement you run.

2. Send and capture consent

Add the candidate, capture consent, send to referees. Brindle chases anyone who goes quiet.

3. Get a structured report

Referees answer in a guided conversation, not a static form. Clean report for the client.

The numbers

Conversations get finished. Forms get abandoned.

76%

Referees who open the reference they are sent to complete

95%+

Of those, the share who finish it (Brindle live completion)

24%

Industry average completion rate for static reference forms

Conversational formats also draw 3 to 5x deeper answers. Xiao et al. 2020 (ACM TOCHI).

Common questions

What if we outgrow our plan?

Quotas roll month to month within the contract year. Overage caps at $2 per reference, no cutoffs. Move up a tier any time.

Does Brindle work with our ATS?

Yes. Brindle runs alongside whatever you use: JobAdder, Bullhorn, FastTrack360, Astute, anything else. No migration, no replacement. ATS integration is on the roadmap.

Where is our data stored?

Privacy compliant with the AU Privacy Act 1988 and NZ Privacy Act 2020. SOC 2 Type II infrastructure (not our own certification yet), with AI inference on Google Vertex servers in Australia. No data sale, no AI training on customer data.

What's it like for the candidate and referee?

A guided conversation by web, no app to install, no account to create. It feels like a polite human conversation, not a survey. Brindle handles the structure, follow-ups, and reminders; your recruiter reviews the report before it goes to the client.

How long does setup take?

You're live in a single session. The Brindle team builds your CV template during onboarding, and in-app guidance walks you through every screen the first time.

What happens at the end of the Free Trial?

Move to a monthly plan, an annual plan, or stop. No conversion pressure, no auto-charge.

What support is available?

Same-business-day email support. Real humans, no tiers, no tickets, no chatbots.
