EVA.ai vs Gloat

Same facts, side by side: starting price, free tier, MCP, API and what each one is actually built for.

Starting price

EVA.ai

$7,200/yr

Enterprise HR platform that joins AI screening, a conversational HR bot, skills mapping and internal mobility, with human review built in. Only the Competency Mapping entry product has a published price ($7,200/yr); the hiring modules are quoted, so it suits large or public sector employers more than small teams.

Where EVA.ai fits

  • Large employers linking hiring to internal mobility
  • Public sector and UN organisations
  • HR teams building a skills taxonomy

Gloat

Sales-quoted

Enterprise internal talent marketplace for mobility, gigs, and project staffing. Gloat sells on a talk-to-us quote, not a public per-employee rate.

Where Gloat fits

  • Global enterprises standing up an internal talent marketplace
  • Skills teams that need a graph of roles, projects, and people, not a static competency list
  • CHRO organizations already comparing Gloat to Fuel50 or 365Talents
  • Companies that will staff projects and mentorship from the same marketplace

Where they pull apart

EVA.ai

Stands out: It treats hiring and internal mobility as one skills problem: the same skills data drives external shortlists, internal role and gig matches and workforce planning, and every AI shortlist comes with a written justification. EVA says it works across 170+ countries, including with United Nations entities, which have dedicated procurement terms.

Watch out: The published prices are for Competency Mapping, not for AI screening or matching, so recruiting use needs a quote. It is a modular platform with forward deployed engineers, which means scoping and setup rather than a quick self serve start.

Not the right fit for

  • Small teams wanting a self serve screener
  • Buyers who need published recruiting prices
  • Agencies focused only on sourcing

Gloat

Stands out: The Workforce Graph is Gloat's deep-learning database of how work units relate, sitting under Talent Marketplace apps and Skills Foundation tools.

Watch out: This is an operating-system sale for large global employers (PepsiCo, Nestle, Novartis, HSBC are named). There is no SMB checkout.

Not the right fit for

  • Mid-market HR teams that need a published PEPM
  • Recruiters who only need an external ATS

Pros and cons

EVA.ai

  • Written justification for every AI shortlist
  • Covers hiring and internal mobility together
  • Published entry pricing with credit toward modules
  • Recruiting modules are quoted
  • Enterprise scale setup
  • Few independent reviews

Gloat

  • Workforce Graph plus marketplace apps in one operating-system pitch
  • Named global enterprise customer list
  • Covers gigs, projects, and mentorship, not only internal job posts
  • No public rate card. Deals are enterprise quotes
  • Implementation is measured in months on review sites
  • Overkill for a company that only needed an internal jobs page
