The free plan has no AI screening or interviews. Hitting a monthly limit pauses new AI volume unless you buy a pack or wait for reset. Add-on packs sit on Starter, Scale, and Pro rather than on Free.
What we noted
Not the right fit for
Worth keeping in mind: Add-on packs are printed even when the plan grid is not: 1,000 resume evaluations for $10, 10 HR interviews for $20, and 10 technical interviews for $80. The whole team shares the org plan.

$99/mo
Why it comes up: FetchTalent is AI phone and video screens with coding scorecards, listed from $99/mo, stronger on live coding than Hello Recruiter's $29 entry.
Stands out: Live coding challenges run inside the same AI interview as the behavioral screen, with a cheat-detection report aimed at IT staffing submissions. Dual email and SMS reminders are used to cut no-shows.
Watch out: It is not an ATS. Pipeline, deletes, and offers stay in your system of record. After-hours interviews are a featured capability, so volume hiring can run while the desk is closed.

Enterprise
Why it comes up: HireVue is the enterprise structured video-interview suite, quote-led, if you need a full interviewing platform.
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
$100/mo Free trial
Why it comes up: Sherlock AI is a $100/mo interview-fraud detector if you already interview and only need integrity signals.
Stands out: Plans split into Only Fraud Detection, Fraud plus AI Fluency, and a full suite that adds automated interview notes, all with unlimited seats under fair use.
Watch out: Starter includes only 10 interviews per month. Overflow is $10 per interview with a 100-interview minimum, so a busy week jumps from $100/mo to a much larger add-on.

$75/mo 30 day free trial
Why it comes up: Hireflix is one-way video interviewing from $75/mo annual, without Hello Recruiter's free ATS tier.
Stands out: Every plan includes unlimited seats, unlimited positions, unlimited interview responses, and the full feature set. Price only changes with company size.
Watch out: Small is for companies under 50 employees. Medium is $150/mo billed yearly for 50 to 250. Agencies and high-volume corporates go Custom.
