The short answer

BrightHire : A longer-established interview intelligence platform sold on quotes, for larger teams that want a proven vendor. From Sales-quoted
Metaview : AI interview notes with a free tier aimed at individual recruiters, for teams that want notes without cross-role analytics. From $60/user/mo
Screenloop : Pairs interview intelligence with its own ATS option, for teams that want notes and tracking from one vendor at a quoted price. From Sales-quoted

Why people look past Confeti

Confeti does not name which ATS platforms its $99/mo Connected sync supports, so check your ATS before buying. Cross-role analytics, calibration and company memory sit in the separate Intelligence tier from $149/mo, and the full ATS option is quote-only. The same brand also sells HR tools such as docs, eSign and performance cycles, so confirm which modules your quote covers.

What we noted

Supported ATS platforms are not named
Analytics require the separate Intelligence tier
Full ATS option is quote-only

Not the right fit for

Agencies that need a candidate sourcing database
Buyers who need a named, verified integration with their ATS today
Teams looking for an AI interviewer that runs screens on its own

Worth keeping in mind: Only recruiters are billed on Core; hiring managers and interviewers get unlimited free seats. Evaluations cite the exact quote and timestamp behind each rating, and the Intelligence tier flags requirement drift between intake and later interviews. Capture runs from a macOS or Windows desktop app, so no bot joins the call.

What each one does differently

BrightHire

Sales-quoted MCP API

Why it comes up: A longer-established interview intelligence platform sold on quotes, for larger teams that want a proven vendor.

Stands out: Interview recordings and coaching attached to the candidate record in the ATS.

Watch out: No published price, and it needs an ATS underneath it.

Best for

Talent teams on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby or Workday
Panels where someone always misses the interview
Teams coaching their interviewers

Metaview

$60/user/mo Free tier MCP

Why it comes up: AI interview notes with a free tier aimed at individual recruiters, for teams that want notes without cross-role analytics.

Stands out: Notes land on the candidate record rather than in someone's document.

Watch out: Each agent is priced separately, so adding Sourcing ($100 or $300 per user) or Application Review ($150 a month) to the $60 Notetaker adds up fast.

Best for

Recruiters who dislike writing up interviews
Teams that need notes on the ATS record
Buyers who want a free start

Screenloop

Sales-quoted

Why it comes up: Pairs interview intelligence with its own ATS option, for teams that want notes and tracking from one vendor at a quoted price.

Stands out: Interview intelligence, structured references, and ATS analytics ship as one platform, not a BrightHire recorder bolted onto Greenhouse.

Watch out: screenloop.com does not list a public per-user rate. Mid-market TA rollouts go through sales. This is a system-of-record conversation, not a $15 ATS.

Best for

Growing TA teams that want ATS plus interview intelligence in one vendor
Companies replacing Greenhouse-plus-BrightHire with a single platform
Teams that care about structured references next to scorecards
