Bottom line

Alex (formerly Apriora) is an AI interviewer for live voice, video, and text screens. The company is Alex at alex.com. Pricing is sales-quoted after a demo. There is no public rate card.

Stands out for: Alex has run 1,000,000 candidate interviews, supports 30 languages, and lists 33 official ATS integrations. It handles outreach, screening, interviewing, verification, and scheduling so TA does not add headcount for first rounds.

Watch out for: Every commercial path is a 30-minute demo. No self-serve SKU, no published per-interview rate, and no trial. This is built for high-volume screening, not a $99/mo SMB seat.

Overview

Alex is the AI recruiter formerly shipped as Apriora. It conducts real-time interviews (voice, video, text), follows up, scores, and can schedule. Recruiters review reports instead of running every first screen. Candidate-experience claims include a 4.5/5 rating and 96 preferring Alex in vendor copy.

The legal entity remains Apriora Inc. dba Alex. apriora.ai redirects to alex.com. Pricing is custom. The public site sends buyers to book a demo. Capterra has a matching Alex listing with no reviews yet.
