Directory/AI screening
AI resume screening tools read resumes and rank applicants by fit for the role. They parse skills, experience, and qualifications from every application, then surface the strongest matches for human review. For high volume roles with hundreds of applicants, they turn an impossible pile into a manageable shortlist.
Accuracy on your actual resumes is what matters. Vendors demo on clean data. Your applicants send messy PDFs. Trial with a real batch and check how many qualified candidates the AI surfaces versus your manual review. Look for customizable screening criteria tied to the job description, not generic scores. Bias controls and audit trails matter for compliance. Check how the tool handles career gaps and nontraditional backgrounds, since rigid models filter out good people.
Most tools charge per user per month or per resume screened, often 100 to 400 dollars per month for team plans. High volume hiring may qualify for usage based pricing. Many ATS platforms now include basic AI screening, so check your current stack first.
Setting the filters too tight. An AI screener tuned for perfect matches will reject strong candidates with unconventional paths. Start broad, review what gets filtered out, and tighten gradually. The directory below lists the top tools in this category so you can compare features side by side.

Your next step
95: 93 software tools and 2 AI agents. Each software listing records its starting price, free plan, free trial, MCP and API support the same way, so the cards can be compared line for line.
39 of the 93 list a US dollar starting price, and the median of those is about $99. Units differ by vendor (per seat, per month, per check or credit pack), so compare the unit on each card, not just the number. 48 are priced by quote, so the vendor sets the number after a call.
13 of them have a permanent free plan rather than a timed trial. 28 offer a free trial.
10 of the 93 ship a first party MCP server, and 28 publish a public API. MCP is only marked where the vendor runs the server themselves, so an agent can query the tool directly.
The tools we use ourselves are marked as picks and listed first, then everything else runs A to Z. There is no paid ranking: a sponsored slot is labelled as such and never changes a listing, its category or its position.
Counted from every published listing in this category, so the numbers move with the directory.
