Bottom line
Firstview puts CV Evaluation, a two-way AI Interview and an AI Co-Pilot for live interviews into one hiring platform, with a basic kanban ATS included. It does not publish pricing, and plans are quoted by sales. It fits teams that want AI first rounds and interview notes in one place and hire in English, Turkish, German, Spanish, French or Dutch.
Stands out for: The AI Interview is a two-way conversation: it answers candidate questions about the role and asks real-time follow-ups when an answer is vague, rather than playing recorded prompts. CV scores show exactly where in the CV each point was found and how it was scored. Firstview says it uses no facial analysis or gesture recognition, only what the candidate says.
Watch out for: There is no public price list and no advertised free trial, so budgeting needs a sales call. Interviews run in 6 languages, which leaves out languages such as Portuguese or Mandarin. The site says ATS integrations exist but names only WhatsApp and LinkedIn, so check your ATS before buying.
Overview
Firstview is an AI hiring platform run by Firstview Technology and Consulting Inc. It describes itself as an intelligence layer for hiring rather than an ATS replacement: it evaluates applications, runs first interviews, assists in your own interviews and turns each step into a structured report.
CV Evaluation scores each application against the role's requirements using three scoring methods: contextual fit, numeric ranges and value matching. The score is transparent, showing where in the CV each piece of evidence came from and how it was interpreted.
The AI Interview runs a live, two-way conversation. It tells the candidate about the company and role, answers their questions, asks technical, soft-skill and logistics questions, and generates follow-ups when an answer is thin. Answers are rated for completeness, accuracy, relevance and evidence, and soft skills are assessed against more than 30 competency frameworks. Firstview says the flow was tested with 5,000 candidates before launch.
AI Co-Pilot supports interviews run by your own team. It records video, writes the transcript and produces a report with topics covered, key candidate statements, strengths and development areas.
Around these modules sit a customizable kanban board, an analytics dashboard, role-based access, WhatsApp messaging for candidate updates and a LinkedIn extension for sourcing. Firstview also offers a managed headhunting service that uses the same platform. Pricing is not published.
Who it's for
Best for
- Teams that want AI first interviews and live-interview notes in one tool
- Smaller employers who can use the built-in kanban ATS instead of a separate one
- Multilingual hiring across Turkish, English, German, Spanish, French and Dutch
Not ideal for
- Buyers who need a published price before a demo
- Teams that need a named, ready-made connector for a specific ATS
- Hiring in languages outside the 6 supported
Key features
Two-way AI interviews. The AI Interview talks with the candidate in real time, answers their questions about the company and role, and asks follow-up questions when an answer is unclear. It can also cover salary expectations, work model and location.
Contextual CV scoring. CVs are scored against role-specific criteria using contextual fit, numeric ranges and value matching. Each score shows where in the CV the evidence was found and how it was read.
AI Co-Pilot notetaker. During your own interviews, the Co-Pilot records video, writes a transcript and produces a structured report with topics covered, key statements, strengths and development areas.
Built-in kanban ATS. A customizable kanban board, analytics dashboard and team-level access control mean Firstview can run without a separate ATS, or sit alongside one.

Pricing
Firstview does not publish pricing. Its terms say features and limits depend on the subscription plan, with plan details given by the sales team, so pricing is quoted after a demo. Firstview also sells a separate managed headhunting service, which is quoted on its own. No free trial is advertised. Confirm current terms on the vendor site.
