No subscription while Dibs is in early access. You pay only when you hire someone Dibs introduced, or someone sent by a recruiter you met through Dibs. Every fee is shown in pounds before you say yes.
Pay whenyou hire.
Four prices. That's the lot.

Your own applicants
Everyone who applies to your practice directly, from your website, LinkedIn or email. Always free.
7.5%
Dibs Intros
Of first-year base salary, only when you hire an architect Dibs introduced. Full refund if they resign, or leave for performance or conduct, in the first 3 months.
+7.5%
Recruiters you meet through Dibs
Each recruiter sets their own fee and keeps all of it. Dibs adds 7.5% and shows you the total before you open a role. One invoice, from Dibs, with the same 3-month refund.
£0
Recruiters you already use
Invite them in, free for 12 months. They bill you the way they do today, and Dibs records who got there first.

Dibs Intro · 7.5%
£6,750
New recruiter at 7.5% · £3,375 to them, £3,375 to Dibs
£9,000
New recruiter at 12.5%, or a typical agency at 20%
Fees exclude VAT. A typical agency charges 15 to 25% of first-year salary, and you rarely see what the recruiter keeps. On Dibs you see every line before anyone starts work.
Fair both ways.
01
Only on hire.
Nothing to pay until someone signs. We invoice when the contract is signed, payable within 14 days.
02
3-month refund.
If a hire through Dibs resigns, or leaves for performance or conduct, in the first 3 months, you get the fee back. Tell us within 14 days.
03
Already yours, no fee.
If someone applied to you, or talked to you about a role, in the last 6 months, there is no fee. Dibs checks your records before any introduction.
04
12 months, any role.
The fee applies if you hire someone Dibs introduced within 12 months, in any role. The start date is on every candidate card.
05
Contractors too.
For freelancers and contractors, 7.5% of their fees for up to the first 12 months.
06
Architects never pay.
Not to join, not to be introduced, not ever.
These are early access prices. Full terms will be published before early access opens.
