  • HireVue : HireVue is enterprise structured video interviewing, not a recruiter presentation and phone-screen workspace. From Sales-quoted

Why people look past Honeit

The $79 and $129 figures are per recruiter seat; extra interviewer seats are $19 per month, and Phone and SMS cost $31 more on Core. Enterprise volume and RPO deals are quoted.

What we noted

  • Billed quarterly or annually, not monthly
  • Seat price is per recruiter, which adds up on a large TA team
  • Enterprise and RPO still require a custom quote

Not the right fit for

  • Hiring teams that only need a $60/user/mo AI notetaker without Honeit's room and presentation workflow
  • Buyers who want month-to-month billing

Worth keeping in mind: Howie is the conversation-intelligence agent. Honeit Notetaker joins Zoom, Teams, Meet, and Webex. Hiring managers get real answers and clips instead of a recap email. Capterra lists Honeit (Phone Interview Technology) at 4.8 from 35 reviews.

What each one does differently

BrightHire

Sales-quoted MCP API

Why it comes up: BrightHire is quoted interview intelligence focused on compliance recording, without Honeit's $110 published seat.

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

Sales-quoted

Why it comes up: HireVue is enterprise structured video interviewing, not a recruiter presentation and phone-screen workspace.

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

4.5 on Capterra from 50 reviews

Carv

Sales-quoted

Why it comes up: Carv publishes from $60/user/mo for AI notes and ATS fill if you mainly need a notetaker, not Honeit's rooms and presentations.

Stands out: Joins the interview, writes the note, and pushes a candidate presentation back to Bullhorn, Greenhouse, Lever, or Workable.

Watch out: Packaging is demo-led and the product now leans toward agentic volume hiring. Carv for recruiters shows a join-the-waitlist sign-up, so confirm availability and price on a call before you budget.

Best for

  • Recruiting agencies that live on intake calls
  • Desks on Bullhorn, Greenhouse, Lever, or Workable
  • Recruiters drowning in notes and write-ups

Willo

$59/role/mo 14 day free trial

Why it comes up: Willo publishes from $59/role/mo for one-way video interviews rather than live recruiter-led screens.

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
