Pricing

Transparent pricing, built around how you actually hire.

The price for interview infrastructure varies from vendor to vendor because those who provide one standard rate will either provide insufficient service or charge you more than necessary. Our pricing model lets you determine your expenses through role complexity and interview count and evaluation requirements to receive services which match your needs without paying for additional services.

Pricing is shared clearly with exact details after our initial discovery discussion about project scope and role requirements and candidate volume without any vague estimates or unexpected costs.

Pricing philosophy

Why our pricing is structured differently.

Interview infrastructure vendors apply three different pricing methods which include per seat charges and headcount-based fees and flat monthly retainers that do not depend on actual system usage. The system shows you pay for capacity which you do not use but you must follow an upper limit when your staffing needs increase. Our model operates through a new system which bases pricing on the actual work that employees complete.

Scope-aligned

You pay for interviews which match your position needs and they must reach the level of assessment required for that position.

Scales with you

Pricing adjusts as your hiring volume grows, no renegotiation needed.

No hidden overhead

The service does not require users to pay platform fees or interviewer bench costs or any fees for unused capacity.

Engagement models

Three ways to work with us.

Our partners need to pick their current hiring stage model because they can combine different models until their circumstances change.

Pilot

Test the infrastructure before you commit.

Coverage
3–5 roles, single hiring cycle
Includes
Calibration session, domain-matched interviewers, structured scorecards, evaluation reports
Structure
Fixed scope, fixed fee, agreed upfront
Key benefit

Low commitment. Real output. You see exactly what we deliver before deciding to scale.

Best for

Companies evaluating interview outsourcing for the first time, or teams with 1–3 open roles right now.

Most common

Retainer

Predictable capacity for recurring hiring needs.

Structure
Monthly or quarterly, with defined interview volume
Includes
Dedicated interviewer panel, priority scheduling, ongoing calibration, full reporting
Flexibility
Volume adjusts each cycle based on actual hiring demand
Key benefit

Your interview panel is always ready. No scramble when a role opens — we move immediately.

Best for

Series A–B companies with 3+ open roles at any time, or teams running continuous engineering hiring.

On-demand

Single interviews when you need them.

Pricing
Per interview — no minimum commitment
Includes
Domain-matched interviewer, standardized scorecard, evaluation report within 3 hours
Turnaround
Interview scheduled within 24–48 hours of request
Key benefit

Zero overhead. Use us once, use us occasionally, or use us as overflow when internal capacity is maxed.

Best for

Early-stage teams, companies with unpredictable hiring cycles, or one-off specialist roles.

Pricing variables

What shapes the final price.

Pricing is calculated across a set of variables that reflect the real complexity of the work. Here is what we assess during scoping.

Role seniority

Senior and staff-level evaluations require deeper assessment and more experienced interviewers.

Domain complexity

Specialist stacks — AI/ML, distributed systems, platform engineering — require matched domain depth.

Number of rounds

Single-round screening vs. multi-stage technical loops are priced separately.

Interview format

Live coding, system design, async take-home review, or structured panel — each has a different operational cost.

Volume commitment

Higher interview volumes across a cycle are priced with volume efficiency built in.

Turnaround SLA

Standard 24–48 hr scheduling applies across all plans. Expedited SLAs are available on retainer.

Custom rubric needs

Roles requiring fully custom evaluation frameworks involve an initial calibration investment.

Why this model works

Why clients choose this over building it in-house.

01

No hidden engineering cost

Internal interview operations consume 10–15 senior engineering hours per week at scale. That time has a real cost, it just never appears on a hiring invoice. Our pricing system shows the comparison between options which usually results in lower costs.

02

You pay for outcomes, not capacity

The staffing process at your company does not involve paying for extra interviewers who remain inactive because of your staffing model which differs from retainer-based firms. Every line item maps to an actual interview, evaluation, and report delivered.

03

Predictable cost per hire

The interview expenses for each position become set after you finish the initial assessment process. Organizations in finance and operations prefer to show their hiring expenses through exact models instead of handling these costs as fluctuating expenses.

04

No ramp-up cost when hiring spikes

Post-funding hiring surges don't require you to hire, train, or onboard internal interviewers. Our service scales together with your demand cycle because we handle all adjustments between increased and decreased requirements without requiring you to sign new agreements.

05

Structurally cheaper than recruiting agencies at the evaluation stage

Recruiting agencies typically charge 15–20% of annual salary per placement. Our evaluation layer sits before that decision and improves signal quality, reducing the risk of a bad hire that costs far more than any interview fee.
