## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace TalentLyft you would be making jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 88 of the 101 other hiring and applicant tracking tools we grade. It costs $735 a year.

- You could make: Applicant tracking: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
