A practical guide to credit-based candidate outreach
By The Candipath Team · June 30, 2026
Every access request on Candipath costs a credit — and that constraint is a feature, not a limitation.
Why intentional beats unlimited
- Recruiters shortlist before they reach out, not after
- Candidates receive fewer, more relevant requests
- Acceptance rates stay higher because requests are targeted
Getting more from your monthly credits
- Refine your AI search prompt before spending a credit — better prompts mean better shortlists
- Use Positions so match scores do the pre-filtering for you
- Review AI match percentage and GitHub verification signals together before requesting access
Scaling up
As hiring volume grows, moving from Starter to Pro — or to a custom Enterprise credit volume — simply raises the ceiling without changing how the workflow feels.
