HireVue is built for Fortune 500 enterprises with $35K+ budgets, weeks of implementation, and features most teams never use (game-based assessments, chatbots, VR). Truffle focuses on what actually speeds up hiring: AI-analyzed video interviews with 30-second highlight reels. You get transparent insights (not black-box scores), setup in 10 minutes, and pricing that scales with your team—not enterprise contracts.

HireVue without AI just moves your screening from phone to video—you still watch every minute. Truffle provides transparent scoring with reasoning for every match score. Truffle's AI shows you exactly what stood out in each answer, creates 30-second Candidate Shorts, and highlights match to job requirements. It's the middle ground: AI that helps you focus, without making decisions for you.

10 minutes. Create your interview questions, customize your branding, send invites. That's it. No implementation team, no IT tickets, no multi-week rollout. HireVue requires Professional Services and change management; Truffle just works.

Yes. We integrate with major ATS platforms and offer Zapier connectivity for custom workflows. Most customers use Truffle alongside their existing ATS — we push scores and links back so your source of truth stays intact.

No. It replaces the slog of reviewing applications and first-call scheduling so you spend time on finalists.

Candidates love it. No scheduling hassles, complete on their own time, clear instructions, and they can test their camera before starting. Most candidates finish in under 10 minutes. Completion rates are 85-90% for warmed candidates — if someone isn't willing to spend 10 minutes, they're probably not the right fit anyway.

Truffle starts at $99/month. HireVue's minimum is $35,000 per year (and often reaches six figures for large enterprises). That's 350x more expensive at the base tier. If you're not hiring thousands of people annually, HireVue's pricing doesn't make sense.

Create your first interview in 5 minutes. No implementation calls, no training required. If you want a walkthrough, we're happy to help, but you won't need us. Start a free trial, test it with your team, and send your first candidate invite the same day.
