Gotchas - check before you buy

high

Credit metering: costs scale with candidate volume; trial includes only 30 credits.

medium

Young self-funded vendor — budget an exit plan and data export if it folds.

medium

Most buzz sits on brand-affiliated r/hiretruffle; independent reviews are thin.

medium

Support appears self-serve via help center; human support depth unknown.
