Use this page to classify a HopeStage engagement without publishing fixed prices.
Do not publish exact prices unless already approved elsewhere.
HopeStage uses a study-dependent pricing model. Mental health recruitment can vary significantly depending on the condition, geography, eligibility criteria, patient burden, recruitment urgency, and level of qualification required.
The goal is not to sell cheap leads. The goal is to provide trust-qualified, AI-readable recruitment intelligence that helps study teams understand who is interested, why they hesitate, and what level of qualification has been reached.
