Bottom line

Enterprise HR platform that joins AI screening, a conversational HR bot, skills mapping and internal mobility, with human review built in. Only the Competency Mapping entry product has a published price ($7,200/yr); the hiring modules are quoted, so it suits large or public sector employers more than small teams.

Stands out for: It treats hiring and internal mobility as one skills problem: the same skills data drives external shortlists, internal role and gig matches and workforce planning, and every AI shortlist comes with a written justification. EVA says it works across 170+ countries, including with United Nations entities, which have dedicated procurement terms.

Watch out for: The published prices are for Competency Mapping, not for AI screening or matching, so recruiting use needs a quote. It is a modular platform with forward deployed engineers, which means scoping and setup rather than a quick self serve start.

Overview

EVA.ai describes itself as a workforce decision intelligence platform covering hiring, mobility and skills decisions, with human in the loop controls over its AI.

For recruiting, Smart Match searches internal or external talent databases in natural language and scores candidates with a written justification, while AI Screening applies your essential and desired criteria and returns a fit conclusion.

EVA Bot engages candidates, employees and contractors: it pre-screens with knockout questions, collects skills and availability, schedules interviews, answers 100+ standard HR topics and escalates to a person.

Beyond hiring, EVA maps skills into a living taxonomy, forecasts gaps, recommends internal roles and gigs, and predicts churn and hiring needs for workforce planning.

Pricing starts with Competency Mapping at $7,200 a year (Self-Service) or $16,000 per Managed project; other modules are quoted and the entry fee can be credited against them.
