Bottom line
A recruiting platform whose screening is free with no cap: an AI interviewer each applicant takes in their own time, CV scoring, proctored tests, chat screening and a built-in ATS. Paid plans from $42/mo billed annually ($49 monthly) only add video retention, branding and downloads.
Stands out for: Nothing in screening is metered. AI interviews, CV scoring, tests and chat screening are unlimited on the $0 plan with unlimited seats, where Hyring's free plan stops at 50 credits a month. Every CV score comes with written evidence per criterion, and an official MCP server lets Claude or ChatGPT read the pipeline.
Watch out for: The free model is paid for by candidates: free sessions carry Flowmingo branding and offer applicants optional paid extras such as practice runs, feedback reports and question retakes. Removing that costs $0.39 to $0.49 per session. Free keeps only the latest 300 videos for 30 days, and the interview is built for a laptop with camera.
Overview
Flowmingo is a hiring platform that screens every applicant instead of a shortlist. Its flagship AI interviewer asks each question aloud, follows up when an answer misses the point, and runs in 60+ languages on the candidate's own schedule. Each interview returns a recording, a transcript and a report scored against your criteria. Around it sit CV evaluation, which turns a job description into weighted criteria and scores each CV out of 10 with written evidence, and proctored skills tests drawn from 270+ skills with AI-written questions.
For hourly roles, chat screening sends applicants a link or QR code and asks four to six knockout questions on their phone, with no app, login or CV. Results from every stage land in one hiring project with a built-in ATS, a career page and free job posts. The free plan is unlimited on interviews, CVs, tests and seats; Starter at $42/mo and Growth at $84/mo billed annually ($49 and $99 monthly), and Scale at $339/mo annually ($399 monthly), add longer video retention, branded reports and downloads. The vendor says it is backed by Y Combinator and used by 4,000+ recruiting teams.
