A complete video interview platform, not just a recording tool
CandidReel brings async interviews, live video, AI scoring, pipeline management, and ATS integrations into one platform. Stop stitching together Zoom, spreadsheets, and email — run your entire interview process from a single place.
The problem with point solutions
Most hiring teams cobble together interviews from generic tools. Zoom for live calls. A separate one-way video tool for screening. Google Sheets to track candidates. Email threads to share feedback. Calendar links for scheduling. None of it is connected.
The result: recruiters waste hours copying data between tools, hiring managers miss feedback requests buried in their inbox, and candidates fall through the cracks. A recruitment automation strategy only works when your tools are integrated. That is what a video interview platform provides — one system where every interaction, score, and decision is connected.
Everything in one video interview platform
Async one-way interviews
Send candidates a link. They record answers to your structured questions on their own schedule — from any device, no app required. CandidReel's async video interviews see strong completion rates with support for pre-screen questions (text and multiple choice) and bulk invitations for up to 500 candidates.
Live video interviews
For later stages, run live video interviews with up to 6 participants. Built-in structured scorecards and automatic transcription ensure live interviews are just as organized and reviewable as async ones.
AI scoring, transcription, and summarization
Every interview — async or live — is automatically transcribed, summarized, and scored by AI. Our AI scores align closely with human reviewers — especially when scoring criteria are specific and well-defined — so the platform's assessment closely matches what experienced interviewers would score.
Pipeline management
Track every candidate from invitation to hire with Kanban-style pipeline management. Custom stages, drag-and-drop movement, team comments, and shareable review links that work without a login.
ATS integrations and scheduling
Connect to Greenhouse, Lever, Bullhorn, and JobAdder. Candidate data, transcripts, and scores sync automatically. Use calendar scheduling with self-booking links to eliminate the back-and-forth of interview scheduling.
Why a dedicated platform beats Zoom and spreadsheets
Zoom was built for meetings, not hiring. It does not record structured responses, score candidates, sync with your ATS, or let you compare answers side by side. You end up building a parallel system of spreadsheets, shared drives, and email chains that no one maintains after the first week.
A purpose-built video interview platform connects every step. A candidate records a response, AI scores it, the score appears on their pipeline card, a hiring manager reviews it via a shareable link, leaves a comment, and the candidate moves to the next stage — all in one system, automatically. No manual data entry, no lost feedback, no candidates falling through the cracks.
This is why teams that switch from Zoom to CandidReel cut their time-to-hire dramatically. The time savings compound at every step of the process.
Enterprise-ready platform, startup-simple setup
Enterprise platforms like HireVue offer comprehensive feature sets but require months-long implementations and six-figure contracts. Lightweight tools like Hireflix are quick to set up but lack AI scoring, live video, and pipeline management.
CandidReel is the platform that does both. Sign up, create a job, and send your first interview invitation in under 5 minutes. As your team grows, unlock custom branding, white-label options, advanced analytics, and enterprise support. Compare us against Spark Hire and Willo to see the full feature comparison.
Pricing is transparent: free, $29, $79, $199/month, or custom enterprise. No hidden fees, no per-interview charges, no annual commitments required on starter plans.
Built for team collaboration
Hiring is a team sport. CandidReel makes it easy to involve everyone without giving everyone a login. Shareable review links let hiring managers watch candidate responses, read AI summaries, and leave comments — no CandidReel account required.
For larger teams, role-based access controls let you define who can create jobs, review candidates, manage pipeline stages, and configure integrations. Every action is tracked, creating an audit trail that supports compliant, defensible hiring decisions.
