What is ChattyHiring?
ChattyHiring is an AI Interviewer platform designed to help Talent Acquisition teams automate screening interviews. The tool uses AI recruiter agents to conduct conversational interviews with candidates via WhatsApp, Telegram, email, or web, eliminating the need for traditional resume reviews and manual call screening. It generates custom interview flows by uploading a job description, which automatically creates CV filters, WhatsApp questions, and roleplay tasks tailored to the specific role.
Key features include automated candidate screening with STAR-based scoring, detailed interview summaries with comprehensive reports showing key competencies, voice and video interview capabilities, 24/7 candidate engagement across multiple time zones, and ATS integrations with platforms like Teamtailor, Recruitee, and Tellent. The platform supports customizable question sets per role, branding customization (logo, colors, AI recruiter name), and produces reports containing ranking scores, evaluation summaries, requirements assessment, pros & cons, follow-up question recommendations, interview transcripts, and voice/video recordings.
ChattyHiring is best for talent acquisition teams, HR departments, recruitment agencies, BPOs, startups, SMBs, and large corporations that need to screen high-volume, high-rotation, entry-level, mid-tier, and desk-less jobs. It particularly benefits agencies conducting hundreds or thousands of pre-screening interviews monthly, companies seeking unbiased evaluations promoting diversity and inclusion, and organizations wanting to reduce time-to-hire by over 10 days while screening applicants 80% faster.
The platform evaluates candidates on skills and intent without accessing sensitive information, ensuring GDPR compliance with data stored in EU data centers. It supports multiple languages including English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch, and achieves a 70%+ engagement rate with candidates who appreciate the flexible, unbiased interview process.

Frequently asked questions about ChattyHiring
What is the pricing model?
ChattyHiring works as a subscription-based model. Once you subscribe to an interview plan, you will get credits to be used to interview and evaluate candidates of your choice. One credit is consumed after a completed interview and evaluation is performed. You can pay per package of interviews (100 interviews for $425, 250 interviews for $950) or get a yearly plan subscription for recurrent hiring needs.
Can I access a free trial before committing?
Yes, ChattyHiring offers a free interview trial to experience the platform firsthand. You need to talk with their representatives and they will enable an account for you. There is also a 7-day free trial with no credit card required mentioned in their features. The trial allows you to perform a demo interview and receive assessment results based on conversation answers.
Will I pay if candidates do not finish the interviews?
No. ChattyHiring only charges credits based on interviews that have been fully completed by candidates. If a candidate does not perform the interview or leaves it incomplete, it does not count as a performed interview for pricing purposes. This ensures you only pay for actual evaluations received.
What happens if I don't use all interview credits before the end of the period?
The credits that have not been consumed by the end of the billing cycle will accumulate after renewing the service. You don't lose unused credits - they carry over to your next billing period, providing flexibility for varying hiring volumes.
Can I customize the interviews and evaluations?
Yes, ChattyHiring is fully customizable. You can modify and adjust all parameters and evaluations performed by the AI recruiter (Emily). You can customize branding colors and logo in interviews, change the name of your AI Recruiter, adjust the interaction mode, and create/edit new templates tailored to your specific job openings. You also have flexibility to adjust the presentation email wording and email domain.
Is ChattyHiring GDPR compliant?

What reports and insights do I get after candidate interviews?
Following each candidate interview, ChattyHiring provides comprehensive reports including: ranking score, evaluation summary, requirements assessment, pros & cons, follow-up questions recommendation, interview transcript, and voice & video recordings. These reports include valuable insights based on job description requirements, helping you identify whether a candidate is a strong fit for your organization with STAR evaluations for understanding candidate behaviors.
How long does it take for candidates to perform the interview?
Normally it takes between 48 hours and 72 hours before candidates perform the interview with the AI Virtual Assistant.

This flexibility allows candidates to interview at their convenience.
