Where they pull apart

RecView

Stands out: Native mobile call recording plus two-way sync into JobAdder, Bullhorn, Vincere, and Loxo.

Watch out: Starter skips ATS sync and mobile capture. Volume discounts start at 4 seats. Internal TA is quoted.

Not the right fit for

In-house TA teams that need a custom plan
Buyers who only need a generic meeting notetaker

Spark Hire

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.

Not the right fit for

Enterprises standardised on HireVue
Buyers who thought $249 included the ATS
Teams that cannot ask candidates to record video
