About

Hirevire is one-way video interview software built to replace the screening phone call. Instead of coordinating calendars, a recruiter writes screening questions once, shares a single link, and candidates record their answers in video, audio, or text from any browser, without creating an account. Every response is transcribed and scored against the team's rubric, so the recruiter reviews a ranked list of candidates rather than a calendar full of calls.

The product is aimed at teams that need to evaluate more applicants than they can reasonably phone screen — startups hiring for several roles, global teams working across time zones, and agencies handling high volumes of applications. Hirevire connects to applicant tracking systems such as Ashby, Manatal, and Recruitee, and to thousands of other apps through Zapier and Make. A 7-day free trial is available without a credit card.

Key Features

Multi-format responses: Candidates can answer by video, audio, text, or file upload, which the company says lifts application completion rates by 34% compared with video-only formats.
AI transcripts in 90+ languages: Every answer is transcribed, which supports international hiring and lets teams compare answers side by side.
AI scorecards: Each answer is scored 1 to 5 against weighted factors the team defines, with the reasoning shown; the AI can draft the rubric from the job description and also reads resumes and text answers.
Auto-disqualification: Applicants who miss must-have criteria, such as work rights or required licences, are filtered out before they record, and disqualified responses do not count against the plan's interview limit.
Shared review links: One link lets a hiring manager or client watch shortlisted answers without logging in, with team notes on every candidate.
Custom branding: Organizations can apply their own logo, colors, and fonts to the candidate-facing pages, and record intro and outro videos.
Integrations and MCP support: Hirevire offers direct ATS integrations, webhooks, Zapier and Make connections, and an MCP server so users can manage hiring from Claude or ChatGPT.

Who It's For

Hirevire suits HR managers, talent acquisition leads, and founders at growing startups who are hiring for multiple roles with limited time and budget. It also serves global and remote-first companies screening candidates across time zones and languages, and recruitment agencies or staffing firms processing 50 or more applications per week. Typical use cases include screening a large applicant pool for one role, asking every candidate identical questions, and sharing shortlisted responses with clients or hiring managers asynchronously.
