Terms of service

Effective 18 July 2026

These terms apply to JOBE Recruit at joberecruit.com. They are intended for recruiters and recruitment businesses using JOBE for business purposes. By creating an account, accepting an invitation or starting a subscription, you agree to them.

Contracting party

JOBE Recruit is provided by Christopher John Howitt, a sole trader trading as JOBE Recruit. A valid postal or service address has not yet been supplied and must be added before commercial launch. Until this is completed, questions can be sent to chrisjhowitt@gmail.com.

The service

JOBE provides recruitment workflow, data organisation, AI-assisted extraction and coaching, lead research, reporting and client-output tools. Features may improve over time, but a paid customer retains the material capabilities stated for its plan for the paid period. Temporary changes may be made where reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, provider availability or service maintenance.

The customer retains ownership of information it submits. The customer grants JOBE and its providers the limited right to host, transmit, structure and otherwise process that information only as needed to operate the service, follow documented customer instructions and meet legal obligations. JOBE retains its rights in the software, interface, branding and service materials.

Plans and team access

PlanWorkspace and included benefits
Early AdopterOne individual recruiter seat with the Professional workflow, 50 included lead credits and the launch benefits displayed at checkout.
ProfessionalOne individual recruiter seat with AI CV and advert processing, call transcription and AI Coach, jobs, candidates, pipeline, interviews, shortlists, cloud sync, exports and core reporting; 100 included lead credits.
BusinessOne shared workspace for up to three total users: the owner plus two members. It includes Professional capabilities, shared workspace records, owner and member roles, 250 shared credits added each active month and retained until used, branded outputs, advanced reporting, shared recruiter templates and owner-managed client links.

The Business subscription price covers the three included seats; it is not a per-seat charge. Team members can create and edit operational shared jobs, candidates, calls, pipeline items and templates. Member spending and deletion are off by default: the owner can allow members to spend the shared credit balance, set a monthly credit cap per member, and allow members to move individual shared records into the team recycle bin. The owner is exempt from a member spending cap. Permanent deletion, team settings, invitations, member removal, shared credit-pack purchases, billing, client links, branding, transcript retention and the shared revenue target remain owner-only. Team members must use their own accounts and must not share credentials.

Removed primary team records are retained in an owner-managed recycle bin for up to 30 days unless the owner restores or permanently deletes them earlier. After that recovery period, the deleted copy is automatically purged. The owner can review a redacted team activity history covering safeguards, membership, shared-credit activity and workspace changes. These safeguards reduce accidental loss but are not a substitute for regular exports or backups. If Business access ends, member access stops immediately and the former shared workspace is frozen rather than discarded. The owner cannot open it without an active plan. If the owner later activates an individual plan, JOBE restores the preserved records into that owner’s individual workspace; if Business is later reopened, newer owner records are merged back into the team workspace.

Plan entitlements shown at checkout and enforced in the account determine access. A customer must not bypass plan or seat limits.

Trials, prices, taxes and cancellation

Use Settings → Manage or cancel subscription to open Stripe’s billing portal. Cancellation stops the next renewal and access continues until the end of the current paid period unless Stripe states otherwise. Except where law requires otherwise, fees already paid for a started billing period are non-refundable. Contact support promptly about an incorrect charge. Nothing in these terms limits a right that cannot legally be limited.

If prices change, existing customers will receive advance notice and the change will apply no earlier than a later renewal. The locked Early Adopter promise above is not affected while that subscription remains continuously active.

Lead credits and AI availability

Lead credits unlock the corporate-prospect records and lead-marketplace actions labelled with a credit cost. A qualified unlock provides the exact verified company identity, public company research routes and a target-role-aware pitch starter. A premium unlock may also provide AI-assisted commercial analysis, objection handling and follow-up preparation. A research route may be a search link rather than a verified direct telephone number, email address or company webpage. Credits buy access to that research service; they are not money, cannot be transferred or redeemed for cash, do not represent ownership of third-party data and do not guarantee that a business is hiring or will reply, meet or make a placement.

Lead credits are distinct from ordinary AI features. AI and transcription require an active plan and remain subject to plan-aware daily technical, safety and abuse-prevention allowances that reset at 00:00 UTC. Paid credit actions are charged separately under the published credit guide. JOBE may temporarily reduce or pause a provider-backed function if the provider is unavailable, but will not describe unavailable functionality as successfully delivered.

Capturing both sides of a coached call depends on browser support and a shareable browser-based Teams, Zoom or call tab with tab audio enabled. Calls made through a telephone or a native desktop application may capture only the recruiter’s microphone. The setup check shown before a live session identifies the available capture mode.

Your responsibilities

AI and third-party limitations

AI output can be incomplete, inaccurate or unsuitable and is not a substitute for recruiter judgment, references, right-to-work checks, professional advice or a fair hiring process. Generated questions, summaries, assessments, contact suggestions and lead information must be verified before use.

JOBE relies on external authentication, hosting, payment, AI, transcription and analytics services. Their availability and lawful use may affect a feature. Links and imported third-party content remain subject to the source’s rights and terms; the customer is responsible for having permission to use them.

Confidentiality, privacy and security

Each party must use reasonable care with confidential information received through the service. JOBE processes personal information as described in the Privacy notice and the Security and data-processing summary. The standard Data processing addendum is incorporated when JOBE processes customer-controlled workspace information; customers requiring bespoke or separately signed terms should contact support before uploading personal information.

Availability, suspension and termination

JOBE aims to provide a reliable service but cannot guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability. Access may be suspended where reasonably necessary for security, serious misuse, legal compliance or non-payment. Where practical, JOBE will give notice and a chance to correct the issue.

Customers should export records they need before access ends. An account-deletion request does not cancel Stripe billing; billing must be cancelled separately. Provisions intended to survive termination—including payment obligations, intellectual property, confidentiality, disclaimers and lawful retention—continue to apply.

Liability and changes

To the extent permitted by law, JOBE is not responsible for indirect or consequential loss, lost placements, lost profits, third-party platform changes or decisions made from unreviewed AI output. Nothing excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded, including liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

Material changes to these terms will be dated and communicated in the service or to the account email where appropriate. Continued use after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance; if a change materially disadvantages an active paid customer, the customer may cancel before its next renewal.
