Mokka vs. Micro1

Comparison Last reviewed: 13 Feb 2026

A Quick Look at Micro1:

Micro1 is not a screening tool for your team, but a marketplace of pre-vetted technical talent. Their AI agent, "Zara," finds and interviews engineers, and then presents them to companies for hire, often handling payroll and compliance.

The Mokka Difference:

Micro1 is a strong option when you need to hire a contractor quickly. Mokka is the strategic solution for building your own world-class, long-term team. It empowers your recruiters, strengthens your employer brand with every interaction, and gives you a repeatable process for finding top talent for any role.

  • Empowers Your Team vs. Outsourcing Your Hiring: Mokka is a strategic tool designed to make your own recruiting team more effective. Micro1 is a tactical service that replaces that function.
  • Builds Your Own Talent Pipeline vs. Offering a Shared Pool: When you use Mokka, you are evaluating 100% of your unique applicant pool. With a marketplace, you are competing with every other client for the same talent.
  • Provides a Custom Screen for Your Culture vs. a Generic Vetting Process: Mokka screens candidates against your specific, nuanced requirements for both the role and your unique company culture, ensuring a much higher quality of fit.

Key Questions to Consider:

  • How do you ensure that the top candidates in a shared marketplace haven't already been presented to your direct competitors?
  • What happens to the rich candidate data and the relationships you build if you decide to stop using a marketplace service? Do you lose access to that talent intelligence?
  • How does a generic vetting process account for the unique cultural and team-specific fit requirements that are critical to success and retention at your company?
