Sonara Pricing Overview

How Our Pricing Works in Real Life

Let’s be upfront—pricing is a big deal when you’re deciding on job search tools. We built Sonara’s pricing around being clear and fair. No surprise fees, no extra charges hiding around corners. From our experience, folks want to know exactly what they’re paying for and how it helps them land a job faster or streamline hiring.

With Sonara, you’re investing in AI-driven job matching and interview automation that cuts down time-to-hire by up to 40%. Our algorithms parse resumes and rank candidates by relevance, so you’re always looking at the best fits without sifting endlessly.

Here’s a quick look at our main plans and what you get:

What You Can Get with the Free Plan

Starting out? Our free plan is a solid way to dip your toes in without spending a dime. You can create a profile, upload your resume, and get matched with up to 10 jobs each month. Plus, the system lets you apply automatically to 5 positions, which can save hours of manual effort.

But here’s the thing: the free plan doesn’t include priority matching or advanced analytics, so you’ll want to be strategic about which opportunities you pursue. From what users tell us, focusing on optimizing your profile makes a huge difference here.

Getting the Most from Free

• Make sure your resume highlights key skills and achievements
• Use basic filters to narrow down job matches by location or industry
• Apply early to jobs since you have limited automatic applications

It’s a no-risk way to see how AI job matching feels in your field. For some, like tech or healthcare, those 10 matches can be enough to get interviews rolling.

Exploring Premium Plans for Serious Job Seekers

Ready to take it up a notch? Our premium plans unlock more power and flexibility. Here’s how they break down:

• Basic Premium ($29/month): Great for steady job hunting with 50 matches and 25 applications automated monthly.
• Professional Premium ($49/month): Suited for career changers or multi-industry seekers; includes AI resume optimization and interview prep tools.
• Enterprise Premium ($99/month): For those wanting everything plus personal job search strategist support and unlimited applications.

Each upgrade adds layers of AI support and automation, helping you save time and boost your chances by focusing on the right roles quickly.

Monthly vs Annual Billing: What You Should Know

If you’re committed, going annual can save you close to two months’ worth of fees. It’s a straightforward discount that rewards those steady on their job search journey.

But hey, paying monthly is flexible too, especially if you’re still testing the waters or handling a tight budget. Our platform supports both without locking you in.

Are There Any Extra Fees You Should Watch For?

Honestly, we keep things simple. The pricing you see is what you pay for the core job matching and interview automation services. No hidden fees, no per-application charges.

If you want to add some personal touches, like career coaching or resume writing, those come at extra cost—but they’re totally optional:

• Career coaching: $75/hour
• Professional resume writing: $150 flat fee
• LinkedIn profile optimization: $100 flat fee

These extras can really boost your chances if you want that one-on-one edge, but the AI does a lot of heavy lifting for you already.

How Sonara Stacks Up Against Others

When you compare what you get with Sonara to paying for personalized services, the value stands out. Traditional job search costs can add up fast:

Sonara packs AI automation for matching, applying, and prepping into one platform. That means less juggling between services and more time focusing on interviews and skill-building.

Thinking About ROI

Offering this as part of career support or severance is becoming a solid way to help folks land faster and smoother. Our AI automates both job matching and interview scheduling, saving HR teams countless hours.

Money-Back Guarantee and Refunds

We want you to feel confident trying premium plans. If things don’t work out, there’s a 30-day money-back guarantee—no hassle, no hoops.

You just reach out within the first month, and we’ll process refunds within 5-7 business days. It’s straightforward because we know every job search is unique.

When Should You Consider a Refund?

If job matches are scarce in your niche or you prefer a hands-on search, that’s okay. We want you using what fits you best, even if it means stepping away from Sonara.

Payment Security and Billing Transparency

Security is a big deal. All payments go through encrypted channels with PCI DSS compliance, so your data stays safe. We don’t store credit card info on our servers—everything is handled by trusted processors.

Billing starts on the day you sign up or upgrade. If you switch plans mid-cycle, charges adjust accordingly, with prorated billing for upgrades.
