Bottom line
All in one AI screening stack for agencies: resume ranking, AI phone screens and proctored video or coding rounds, on a free ATS or synced to yours. AI interviews are sold in prepaid packs, from $99 for 20 interviews, with discounted pay-per-use overage once the pack runs out.
Stands out for: It covers the whole screening funnel in one product, from interest check to proctored coding round, and throws in a free ATS for teams that have none. Domain specific assessments for healthcare, legal and education go beyond the usual tech and sales question banks.
Watch out for: Pack prices hide very different per-interview rates: Launch overage is $4.75 an interview, while the $2,200 Elite pack bills $22 an interview after its 100 included ones. Many of the headline numbers (500+ companies, 70% faster hiring) come from the vendor's own marketing, and it has very few independent reviews. Its FAQ also pitches interview practice to candidates, so confirm you are buying the recruiter product.
Overview
AltHire AI is an AI interview and screening platform run by AltHire AI LLC in Spokane, Washington. It is aimed mainly at hiring and staffing agencies, with separate packaging for enterprise, technical, high volume and campus hiring.
The workflow runs in four steps: resume matching that ranks applicants against the job, an interest check sent by email, SMS or WhatsApp, an adaptive AI phone screen with a scorecard, and a deep assessment round.
Deep assessments can be AI video interviews or live coding challenges, with question sets tailored by domain, including clinical reasoning for healthcare and case analysis for legal roles. Every session is proctored with camera, audio and screen monitoring plus AI answer detection.
Teams without an ATS can use AltHire's free built-in one, which includes a career page builder and posting to 50+ job boards. Teams with an ATS get two way sync with Greenhouse, Lever, Workday and 20+ others.
AI interviews are sold in packs: Launch $99 for 20 interviews, Scale $330 for 70, Enterprise $660 for 150, and Elite $2,200 for 100 with lifetime interview creation support and a dedicated account manager. Credits stay valid for 12 months. The enterprise tier adds white label branding, custom feature development, a dedicated account team and a 99.99% uptime SLA. AltHire states SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance.
