What we noted

What each one does differently

Metaview

$60/user/mo Free tier MCP

Why it comes up: Interview intelligence if you want a US-first note tool.

Stands out: Notes land on the candidate record rather than in someone's document.

Watch out: Each agent is priced separately, so adding Sourcing ($100 or $300 per user) or Application Review ($150 a month) to the $60 Notetaker adds up fast.

Best for

  • Recruiters who dislike writing up interviews
  • Teams that need notes on the ATS record
  • Buyers who want a free start

BrightHire

Sales-quoted MCP API

Why it comes up: Interview recording if compliance review is the main job.

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

Spark Hire

$249/mo API

Why it comes up: Live and one-way video if ATS notes are secondary.

Stands out: Unlimited video interviews at a public $249/month annual start, then a full ATS if you want sourcing and workflows in the same vendor.

Watch out: The ATS (Recruit Pro) starts at $335/month billed annually, not $249. AI resume review and notetaker hours are metered by ATS plan. No free trial is advertised.

Best for

  • TA teams replacing live first rounds with one-way video
  • SMBs that want video without an enterprise HireVue contract
  • Companies that may grow into Spark Hire's ATS

Willo

$59/role/mo 14 day free trial

Why it comes up: One-way video screens if you skip call recording.

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
