The short version

  • Only Jupyter has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Greenhouse core plan lacks talent discovery and contact lookups; Jupyter notebook format makes version control and collaboration difficult with multiple contributors
  • They diverge on capability: Greenhouse covers Applicant tracking, Jupyter covers Interactive notebooks.
