  • VidCruiter : Live plus automated video for public sector and enterprise. From Quote-based
  • Truffle : AI screening at a published low price. From $49/mo

Why people look past HireVue

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

What we noted

  • No published price
  • No API or MCP
  • Too heavy for small-team async video

Not the right fit for

  • Small businesses that want a cheap async video tool
  • Desks that only need interview notes

Worth keeping in mind: Video interviews and validated assessments in one enterprise suite.

What each one does differently

Willo

$59/role/mo 14 day free trial

Why it comes up: Cheaper one-way video if you do not need enterprise assessments.

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

VidCruiter

Quote-based

Why it comes up: Live plus automated video for public sector and enterprise.

Stands out: Live and automated video from the same vendor, which most rivals split.

Watch out: No published price, and it is heavy for a small team's async screening.

Best for

  • Public-sector talent teams
  • Enterprise structured video interviewing
  • Teams that need live and automated from one vendor

Truffle

$49/mo 7 day free trial

Why it comes up: AI screening at a published low price.

Stands out: A published $49 entry price with match reasoning, where rivals quote five figures.

Watch out: It is not a validated assessment suite, so regulated or high-stakes selection may need more.

Best for

  • High-volume small and mid-market hiring
  • Teams that want video and scores in one login
  • Buyers who need a published price

TestGorilla

$215/mo Free tier

Why it comes up: Skills tests without standing up a video suite.

Stands out: A large test library with anti-cheating measures and a genuine free plan.

Watch out: The jump from Core to Plus is steep, and it is tests rather than video interviewing.

Best for

  • Teams that want evidence before a live interview
  • Organisations on the major applicant trackers
  • Buyers replacing an enterprise assessment module
