Why teams switch from Lever
Lever's differentiator is outbound sourcing — its CRM pipeline for passive candidates. If you're mostly inbound-driven (applicants respond to your postings rather than you cold-outreaching), you're paying for sourcing workflows you don't use. The Scorify skips the CRM layer and doubles down on inbound screening speed.
When Lever wins
Active-sourcing-heavy recruiting teams (typically 50+ hires/year, high-competition talent markets like engineering leadership) get real value from Lever's CRM. For pure inbound hiring, the surface area is overkill.
