The problem

Most interview processes are a coin flip.

Unstructured interviews barely predict job performance, and every panel knows it.

≈2×

Structured interviews are about twice as predictive as unstructured ones.

30%+

Of first-year salary: the typical cost of a single mis-hire.

1 in 2

Panels disagree on the same candidate without a shared rubric.

Sources: Sackett et al. (2022) and Schmidt & Hunter (1998) on interview validity (structured interviews predict roughly twice as well as unstructured); U.S. Department of Labor on the cost of a mis-hire.

How it works

One spine from job description to decision.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly.

You get full features for the whole trial, with no card up front. When it ends, you pick the seats you actually need and add a payment method then. Nothing you set up or scored is deleted; your data stays put.

A credit is the unit for AI actions, each with a posted price. Every Recruiter seat includes 400 credits a month and every Interviewer Pro seat 80, all pooled across your team. Need more? Top-up packs start at $12.

Yes. Basic interviewers, hiring managers, and employees are unlimited free seats. Only Recruiter and Interviewer Pro seats are paid, so the whole panel can join without growing your bill.

Freshteam syncs two-way today, and CSV import works from any other system. More native connectors are on the way.

You do. The AI assists, but never auto-rejects a candidate or makes the call. Every suggestion and score is visible, attributable, and overridable by a human on the panel.

No. Your data is not used to train models, unless you explicitly opt into our improvement program. Even then, content is anonymized in line with GDPR before it's ever used.
