Sourcing & Nurture campaigns
Nurture is Lever's CRM superpower on paper, but the bulk-outreach features that mattered most have been edged into higher tiers and add-ons.
What people actually say
✕Full NurtureKit — bulk outreach and sequencing — is positioned with the Professional/TalentSuite tier; teams on Essential get only basic NurtureKit.

Nurture sequences live as Inngest workflows hitting Customer.io or Resend, with dedicated sending domains and DMARC you control — so deliverability is your DNS, not Lever's shared reputation. Suppressions are a Postgres table with a UI and audit trail (no silent drops), and bulk outreach has no tier gate because there is no tier.
