Bottom line

AI resume screening and candidate fraud detection with ATS sync. Paid Professional is listed at $249/mo; 25-candidate free start.

Stands out for: Ranking plus fraud (300-plus signals) with two-way ATS sync, not a generic ChatGPT-on-CVs wrapper.

Watch out for: Analyses are metered: the paid tier covers a fixed quota and extra analyses are charged per analysis, with unlimited sold as an add-on. A busy month is the thing to model, not the headline.

Overview

Brainner screens resumes against your criteria, ranks candidates, and runs fraud detection. Results push to the ATS. Named connectors include Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Workable, JazzHR, iCIMS, and Ashby. There is API access.

Professional is listed at $249/mo with up to 2,000 analyses; Business raises the quota and adds automation. Extra analyses are $0.0995 each. A free start covering about 25 candidates is advertised; that is a usage cap, not a timed trial. Unlimited analyses are an add-on.
