The first three on this page
Ordered by category fit and the evidence we hold, not by a score.
A distinctive early-stage interview-screening layer worth piloting for high-inbound hiring, with human review and data-governance checks kept explicit.
Recruitment-native interview intelligence: it sits on the live interview, prompts the interviewer during it, and writes the notes and scorecards into a real ATS afterwards. The published security posture is specific enough for a procurement conversation. What is missing is money: three tiers, no price on any of them and no general trial, so for most buyers the first comparison against a priced competitor costs a sales meeting, with a Greenhouse partner offer as the one published exception. Setup is described by the vendor as under a day with no implementation fees, which is its claim rather than independent evidence. Recording candidates is a consent and retention decision before it is a software one.
Structures interview evidence into comparable scorecards and keeps the decision with a person, priced per evaluation so every interviewer can use it. It is a decision layer beside an ATS, and its security and hosting documentation is not published.

Recruiting AI agents licensed separately: Sourcing free for the first 100 profiles then $100 per user for 200 a month or $300 unlimited, Notetaker free for 25 calls a month then $60 per user, and Application Review free for 50 applications then $150 a month for 500 reviews with unlimited users. The sourcing agent takes a brief by voice, text, upload or recorded intake call and can search a licensed profile database, your ATS and your own Metaview interviews together, but it does not contact candidates: outreach is a separate surface.
