Usage Fees
Pay for successful outcomes, not just empty seats.
Our usage-based pricing aligns your costs with your actual hiring volume. You simply pay a small fee when Xenqu delivers value by automating a workflow or engaging a candidate.
What is a “Record”?
Think of a Record as a single person or candidate profile. Unless you intentionally create a duplicate profile for the same person, you are only charged for that specific individual’s lifecycle events.
The 3 Stages of the Record Lifecycle
1. New Record (Initiation)
- When it happens: When you create a new profile to start the hiring process, triggering automated communications and task assignments.
- The Value: Immediate reduction in administrative burden by automating data entry and outreach.
- Frequency: One-time fee per record. You are never charged this fee again for the same profile.
2. Engaged Record (Participation)
- When it happens: When the candidate actively logs in and completes their assigned tasks.
- The Value: This is the “Success Fee.” It confirms the candidate is responsive and moving forward. With a 90% completion rate for engaged candidates, this fee signifies a high probability of a successful hire.
- Frequency: One-time fee per record.
3. Active Record (Retention & Redeployment)
- When it happens: When you assign new tasks to an existing employee for things like re-deployment, compliance updates, or re-hiring.
- The Value: Keeps your long-term maintenance costs low. Instead of paying full price to re-hire a past employee, you pay this significantly reduced rate.
- Fair Billing Logic: We have built-in protections to ensure you are only charged when necessary:
- Prerequisite: This fee only applies to candidates who have already completed the “New” and “Engaged” stages.
- 30-Day Delay: You cannot be charged an Active fee until at least 30 days after the candidate becomes “Engaged.”
- Monthly Cap: This fee creates a 30-day window. Even if you add multiple tasks to a worker throughout the month, you are charged at most once per month for that record.

Services & Savings
Beyond our core platform subscription, we offer a range of services designed to help you configure, optimize, and scale your workflows. Whether you need assistance setting up complex forms, training your team, or integrating with other tools, our success model is built to adapt to your needs.
Service Credits
Instead of rigid service packages, we utilize Service Credits. These credits allow you to request specific services whenever you need them.
- Included Credits: Specific subscription tiers (Growth and Enterprise) come with an annual allotment of Service Credits included in the base price.
- Top-Up Options: Credits can be purchased in bundles to cover one-time projects or ongoing enhancements.
You can redeem your credits across a wide variety of configuration and consultation categories:
- Form Conversion & Optimization: Turn your static PDFs into interactive, mobile-optimized digital forms. Credit usage varies based on the complexity of the form (e.g., number of fields, signature requirements, and page count).
- Training & Consultation: Book personalized training sessions, process consultations, or testing sessions with our experts to ensure your team is utilizing the platform to its fullest potential.
- Advanced Customization: Use credits for custom notification workflows, specific ATS field mapping, custom reporting, or conditional form logic.
- Integration Enhancements: tailored automation flows and additional allowable mappings for your integrations.
Volume Discounts (Committed Spend)
For organizations with high-volume hiring needs, we offer a Committed Spend program. By pre-paying for your estimated annual usage fees, you unlock significant discounts on your per-record rates.
- Predictable Budgeting: Secure your usage costs upfront.
- Lower Rates: The higher your committed spend, the deeper the discount applied to your New, Engaged, and Active record fees.
- Flexibility: Ideal for managing seasonal hiring spikes while maintaining a lower average cost per hire.
Support Options
We are committed to keeping your operations running smoothly.
- Standard Support: Included with all subscriptions. Access our support team via the portal or email with standard response times.
- Premier Support: For mission-critical operations, upgrade to Premier Support for faster SLAs, priority queuing, and access via Phone and Slack/Teams channels.
