Verdicts
Breezy HR
Every one of the 64 documented operations carries an OpenAPI 3.1 fragment with detailed descriptions, and a dated API changelog has eight entries since 15 July 2026. API access is an optional add-on to the custom-priced Pro plan, no rate limit figure or SLA is published, and the API cannot schedule interviews or send offer letters.
Teamtailor
Scoped API keys, dated API versions and a changelog kept since 2016 make the REST API predictable, and the MCP server adds OAuth with read, write and delete scopes plus audit log entries. No price, free trial or SLA is published, no OpenAPI document or SDK was found, and the REST interview and job offer resources are read-only.
