Artha Job Board and Kardow are both self-serve, subscription-priced platforms for operators building a monetisable board, so the choice is about how each is built and metered. Artha Job Board leads with a free-forever Starter plan, USD pricing that scales with candidate volume, unlimited team members on every plan, branded native mobile apps and ad-network revenue sharing. Kardow leads with GBP-first pricing from £29 per month, an AI website builder, scraper-credit backfill with published quotas and up to 3 separate boards on its Scale plan. Pick by whether a free start with unlimited seats and native apps or credit-metered backfill with multi-board support matters more to your board.
Artha Job Board publishes its plans in USD, with prices scaling on a candidate-volume selector, so the figures here are the base tier of up to 1,500 candidates. Starter is free forever and includes the core job board, custom domain and UI branding, monetisation methods, job alerts, one smart backfiller and 200 active jobs. Growth is $79 per month with monthly billing ($65 per month billed yearly) and adds an unlimited smart backfiller, the ad network, candidate licence paywalls, an application tracking system and 1,050 active jobs. Scale is $149 per month ($120 per month billed yearly) and adds AI resume parsing, AI candidate matching, smart search, branding removal and multiple payment gateways. Enterprise is contact sales. Billing is month-to-month and you can cancel or change plan anytime. Setup fees are not published.
Kardow publishes its plans in GBP with USD and EUR also shown ($39 / $89 / $179 monthly in USD). Starter is £29 per month with the AI website builder, custom domain, paid job posts, 300 scraper credits per month and 1 team seat. Pro is £69 per month and adds white-label removal, subscriptions, bundles and paywalls, Google OAuth, custom email domains, AI screening, API access, 1,000 scraper credits and 3 seats. Scale is £139 per month and adds invoices and custom payment links, 3,000 scraper credits, unlimited seats and up to 3 separate job boards. Enterprise is custom. There is a 14-day free trial, annual billing saves 20%+ and Kardow charges a platform subscription rather than a revenue share. Setup fees are not published. The two meter differently, Artha Job Board by candidate volume and Kardow by scraper credits and seats.
Artha Job Board is built for operators who want to stand up a branded, monetisable job portal quickly, fill it from a large backfill pool and earn through employer licences, paid postings, candidate paywalls and ad-network revenue sharing. Branded native iOS and Android apps give candidates a white-label mobile experience and every plan includes unlimited team members. The free-forever Starter plan means you can begin without spending, then Growth adds the ad network and an application tracking system and Scale adds AI resume parsing and AI candidate matching as candidate volumes rise. If you want to start free and grow into an AI-equipped monetised portal, Artha Job Board is built for that.
Kardow is built for self-serve operators who want to build and run a branded, monetisable board themselves at a low monthly subscription, using an AI website builder and scraper-credit backfill. Monetisation runs through Stripe with paid postings from Starter, then subscriptions, bundles and paywalls on Pro and invoices and custom payment links on Scale. Kardow charges a flat platform fee rather than a revenue share, blog and SEO pages come built in and Scale supports up to 3 separate boards with extra boards at £29 per month each. If you want a flat-fee builder with credit-metered backfill and multi-board support, Kardow is built for that.
There is a third model for boards that exist to serve a defined community rather than to be operated or monetised. Spacewalk sources an employer-direct verified job stream, matches roles to each member's skills and preferences and reports through to placements, with no revenue share on any employer fees and unlimited admin seats on every plan. See Spacewalk vs Artha Job Board and Spacewalk vs Kardow or view pricing.
Both are self-serve, subscription-priced platforms for operators building a monetisable board, but they lead with different strengths. Artha Job Board leads with a free-forever Starter plan, USD candidate-volume pricing, unlimited team members on every plan, branded native mobile apps and ad-network revenue sharing. Kardow leads with GBP-first pricing from £29 per month, an AI website builder, scraper-credit backfill with published quotas and up to 3 separate boards on its Scale plan.
Artha Job Board comes filled with 4M+ jobs via its ad network, supported by a smart backfiller tool (one on Starter, unlimited on paid tiers). Kardow imports jobs through scraper credits, 300, 1,000 and 3,000 per month by tier, into a board assembled by its AI website builder. Neither vendor publishes a refresh cadence.
Both publish self-serve prices in different currencies. Artha Job Board is free on Starter then $79 and $149 per month at the base candidate tier, rising with candidate volume. Kardow runs £29 / £69 / £139 per month ($39 / $89 / $179 in USD) with annual billing saving 20%+. Compare in your billing currency and at the candidate volumes, credits and seats you would run.
Kardow supports up to 3 separate job boards on its Scale plan, with additional boards at £29 per month each. Artha Job Board does not publish multi-board support on its pricing page. If several distinct boards are core to your plan, check the multi-board path with each vendor before choosing.
Yes. If your board exists to serve a defined community rather than to be operated or monetised, Spacewalk offers a community-first placement model with an employer-direct verified job stream matched to your community, placement reporting and no revenue share.
