What is the best self-hosted job board software?

Across 35 sampled AI answers from 5 engines, WordPress is recommended most often — appearing in 82.9% of recommendations, followed by WP Job Manager (77.1%) and PeelJobs (57.1%).

This is a measurement of share of voice across 5 AI engines — not an editorial pick. See the full ranking below.

How this ranking is measured

Orbator asked Grok, Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity buyer questions about self-hosted job board software and sampled 35 answers between Aug 21, 2026 and Sep 18, 2026. Recommendation share counts the answers that recommended or listed a product, so a passing mention or a warning adds nothing to it. A category publishes once it holds at least 20 independently sampled answers in the window. Read the full methodology or download this ranking as CSV.

Reading the numbers: Share is a point estimate on 35 sampled answers, so each row also shows its 95% CI — the Wilson score interval around that share. When two products' intervals overlap, the gap between them isn't statistically meaningful at this sample size. First pick is the share of a product's recommending answers where it was named first, which separates “always mentioned” from “usually the top recommendation”. Full methodology.

Independence: Orbator customers are badged for disclosure. Customer status does not affect prompts, sampling, extraction, or ranking — see the methodology. Your product on this list? Claim it to see the prompts behind your rank and track it weekly.
