What is Quil?
Quil is an AI-powered recruiting assistant that automatically captures interview notes, summarizes candidate conversations, and integrates hiring insights directly into applicant tracking systems to speed hiring workflows. It records interviews (live or from recordings), transcribes audio, highlights key candidate responses, and surfaces recommended ratings and next-step suggestions to help interviewers make consistent decisions. Quil offers integrations with common ATS platforms and calendar systems so notes, ratings, and follow-up tasks are appended automatically, reducing manual data entry for recruiters and hiring managers. The product targets talent teams, sourcers, and hiring managers at startups and mid-market companies that want to standardize interview feedback, reduce bias in note-taking, and accelerate time-to-hire.

The site indicates custom enterprise pricing for larger organizations with SLA and SSO options, while smaller teams can start on a lower-cost monthly subscription; team seats, transcription minutes, and integrations are the primary factors that determine plan cost.

Frequently asked questions about Quil
How does Quil capture interview notes during live interviews?
Quil captures audio from live interviews using its browser extension or hosted call integration, then transcribes the audio in near real time and highlights candidate answers based on configured templates so interviewers can focus on the conversation rather than manual note-taking.
Which applicant tracking systems does Quil integrate with?
Quil supports direct integrations with major ATS platforms (examples listed on the site) and can auto-populate candidate records, ratings, and notes; enterprise customers can request custom integrations during onboarding if a specific ATS is not pre-built.
Is candidate audio and transcript data stored securely?
Quil stores recordings and transcripts with access controls and privacy settings; enterprise plans include additional security controls such as SSO and admin permissioning, and customers can configure retention and access policies during setup.
Can I use Quil with recorded interviews or only live calls?
You can upload or attach recorded interviews for Quil to transcribe and analyze, and the platform treats uploaded recordings similarly to live captures, extracting highlights and suggested ratings for each session.
How accurate are Quil’s automated ratings and recommendations?
Automated recommendations are intended as decision support and not replacements for human judgement; accuracy depends on transcription quality and how well your evaluation rubrics are configured, so Quil recommends human review and custom rubric tuning for best results.
Does Quil provide analytics on hiring patterns or interviewer behavior?
Yes—Quil provides dashboards and analytics showing trends across interviews, common strengths or red flags, and interviewer scoring patterns to help talent teams identify calibration needs and improve hiring consistency.
What privacy or consent features are available for recordings?
Quil includes consent workflows and settings to surface recording notices to participants; administrators can enforce policies, control who can download recordings, and set data retention rules to meet regional privacy requirements.
How do I deploy Quil across a recruitment team?
Deployment options include self-serve signup for small teams, browser extension installs, and managed enterprise onboarding that includes SSO, ATS configuration, admin controls, and training to ensure templates and rubrics are standardized across interviewers.
Can Quil extract structured data (skills, experience) from conversations?
Quil applies NLP to surface structured highlights such as mentioned skills, years of experience, and role-relevant examples, and it can map those extracted fields into ATS or CSV exports for downstream reporting and filtering.
What support and onboarding does Quil offer for enterprise customers?
Enterprise customers receive dedicated onboarding support that typically includes integration assistance with ATS systems, configuration of rubric templates, training sessions for interviewers, and support SLAs tailored to the contract.
