Confeti
Interview capture and hiring intelligence that ties scorecards to quotes, for recruiting teams, from $49 per recruiter a month.
From $49/mo Free tier
Bottom line
Confeti captures interviews and hiring manager intakes without a meeting bot and turns them into evidence-linked scorecards and candidate briefs. A Free plan covers 5 conversations a week, and Core is $49/recruiter/mo with hiring managers and interviewers free. It fits in-house talent teams that want interview notes, calibration and funnel analysis in one place.
Stands out for: Only recruiters are billed on Core; hiring managers and interviewers get unlimited free seats. Evaluations cite the exact quote and timestamp behind each rating, and the Intelligence tier flags requirement drift between intake and later interviews. Capture runs from a macOS or Windows desktop app, so no bot joins the call.
Watch out for: Confeti does not name which ATS platforms its $99/mo Connected sync supports, so check your ATS before buying. Cross-role analytics, calibration and company memory sit in the separate Intelligence tier from $149/mo, and the full ATS option is quote-only. The same brand also sells HR tools such as docs, eSign and performance cycles, so confirm which modules your quote covers.
Overview
Confeti is a hiring intelligence platform built around the conversations recruiters and hiring teams already have: intake calls, recruiter screens, interviews and debriefs. It records and transcribes them through a desktop app for macOS and Windows or through the web app, with no meeting bot joining the call.
Captured conversations become structured evidence. Each candidate gets a running profile that separates strong evidence from mixed or missing evidence, and evaluations link each claim to a quote and timestamp. Before each stage, interviewers get a brief listing what has been learned, what is unclear and which questions have already been asked.
On the role side, Confeti turns hiring manager intakes into must-haves, nice-to-haves and trade-offs, then tracks when those requirements change. The Intelligence tier adds analytics across roles, such as stage conversion shifts, interviewer calibration, question effectiveness and themes behind candidate withdrawals.
Pricing starts with a Free plan for 5 conversations per week. Confeti Core is $49/recruiter/mo, with hiring managers and interviewers free. Connected adds an ATS sync at $99/mo per ATS, Intelligence starts at $149/mo per company, and Confeti ATS is quoted by headcount.
