Equitas from Sales-quoted

The short answer

  • BrightHire : BrightHire is quoted interview intelligence focused on recording and shared playback rather than an autocue fairness layer. From Sales-quoted
  • HireVue : HireVue is enterprise structured video interviewing with vendor scoring, not human-led indicator scoring. From Enterprise
  • BarRaiser : BarRaiser adds an interviewer marketplace on top of interview intelligence, a different buy than Equitas' overlay. From $75/user/mo
  • Willo : Willo publishes from $59/role/mo for one-way video interviews if you need a priced async screen instead of live autocue. From $59/role/mo

Why people look past Equitas

Buyers talk to sales. Equitas does not print a current dollar or seat table. An old FAQ figure should not be treated as the live price. Screenloop remains a separate product after the acquisition.

What we noted

  • The vendor does not publish a current price
  • Screenloop customers should not assume the products have merged
  • No named ATS list on the homepage, only a generic ATS bridge

Not the right fit for

  • Recruiters who need a priced notetaker they can buy on a card today
  • Teams that want a fully autonomous AI interviewer with no human scorer

Worth keeping in mind: A real-time autocue walks interviewers through the same questions. Scoring stays human, with positive and negative indicators, auto-generated candidate feedback, and a fairness posture the vendor ties to inclusive-by-default interviews.

What each one does differently

BrightHire

Sales-quoted MCP API

Why it comes up: BrightHire is quoted interview intelligence focused on recording and shared playback rather than an autocue fairness layer.

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

HireVue

Enterprise

Why it comes up: HireVue is enterprise structured video interviewing with vendor scoring, not human-led indicator scoring.

Stands out: Video interviews and validated assessments in one enterprise suite.

Watch out: No published price, and it is far heavier than a small team needs for async video.

Best for

  • Enterprise talent teams standardising video interviews
  • Teams that need assessments before an onsite
  • High-volume employers that cannot run live first rounds

BarRaiser

$75/user/mo

Why it comes up: BarRaiser adds an interviewer marketplace on top of interview intelligence, a different buy than Equitas' overlay.

Stands out: Team includes AI interview notes, Interview Co-Pilot, highlights, recording, 30 interviews per user per month (60 minutes), 30 templates, interviewer training, and 40+ ATS integrations.

Watch out: Team's floor is five interviewers, so the cash outlay starts at $375/mo before the annual discount. Lite is only 5 interviews total. Unlimited interviews, custom ATS/CRM, 24/7 call support, and developer APIs are Enterprise (talk to sales).

Best for

  • TA teams that want a live interview copilot and structured notes
  • Orgs that will train interviewers, not only record them
  • Companies already on an ATS that BarRaiser lists in its 40+ connectors

Willo

$59/role/mo 14 day free trial

Why it comes up: Willo publishes from $59/role/mo for one-way video interviews if you need a priced async screen instead of live autocue.

Stands out: Priced per live role rather than per seat, with a long list of supported trackers.

Watch out: Priced in pounds, and there is a large gap between the entry plan and enterprise.

Best for

  • Small and mid-sized teams running async screens
  • Teams on Greenhouse, Workable, Lever or Ashby
  • Hiring managers who review on their own time
