GenieHire vs Willo

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

Starting price

GenieHire

₹5,000/mo Free trial

AI screening interviews for recruiters and staffing agencies: every applicant gets a short video interview the moment they apply, each answer is scored on a rubric drafted from your job description, and cheating signals are marked on the recording. You get a ranked shortlist and make the call yourself. Prices are published in rupees, from ₹5,000/mo billed quarterly, and there is a free trial with no credit card.

Where they pull apart

GenieHire

Stands out: Proctoring is on every plan, and flags are treated as evidence rather than a verdict: tab switches, a second face and pasted answers sit as timestamps on the recording for a reviewer to confirm or dismiss, and never move the score or reject anyone. Agencies get white-labelled interview reports to send with each submittal on Enterprise.

Watch out: There are no direct ATS integrations yet; the vendor lists two-way ATS sync and job board auto-invites as planned, so today candidates come in through an interview link or CSV upload. Pricing is in INR only, quotas are counted per quarter with no carry-over, and Essential allows a single user.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need results written straight into their ATS today
  • Buyers who need USD invoicing

Willo

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.

Not the right fit for

  • Desks that need live panel video
  • Teams running many roles at once on the entry plan
