- 1Is there a published price? A number you can read without booking a call is the single biggest difference between these products, and it is the one most comparison articles skip.
- 2Can you start without talking to sales? Self-serve signup and a real trial, versus a demo request that gates the trial behind a call.
- 3What does the entry tier actually include? Interview volume, seats and caps at the cheapest published plan, not at the plan the vendor demos.
- 4Is AI screening available, and on which tier? Being scored automatically is worth little if it only unlocks on an enterprise agreement.
- 5Can you get your candidate videos and transcripts out? Export and retention decide how expensive it is to leave later.

The table
Published entry price, side by side
Read off each vendor's own pricing page on 2026-07-26. Where a vendor publishes no price, this table says so rather than repeating a number from somewhere else.

Methodology
How this list was scored
Every platform below was scored on the same five questions, and the answers were read off each vendor's own pricing page on 2026-07-26. Where a vendor publishes no price, this guide says so rather than repeating a number from a third-party blog. The full source list is at the bottom of the page.
The ranking
The 7 platforms, ranked
Ranked against the five criteria above. Every price was read off the vendor's own pricing page on 2026-07-26.
1.1Way Interview
- Best for:
- Teams that want a price they can read and a signup button.
- Published price:
- $13.99 per month billed annually ($19.99 month-to-month) up to $209.99 per month. 14-day free trial, no credit card.
Ranked first on the criteria this guide actually scores: every plan and price is published, you can start without a call, and AI test validation is included from the $34.99 per month SME plan rather than reserved for an enterprise agreement. Interview volume is metered by plan (30 on Starter, 60 on SME, 150 on Business) with an unlimited tier above that, and candidate videos and transcripts are downloadable throughout your plan's retention window.
Pros
- Every plan and price is published; nothing is quote-only.
- Fully functional 14-day trial with no credit card, no demo and no sales call.
- AI test validation is included from the $34.99 per month SME plan up.
- Candidate videos and transcripts are downloadable, so leaving later is cheap.
Cons
- AI test validation is not included on the Starter plan.
- Interview volume is capped per plan below the Unlimited tier (30 per month on Starter).
- Video retention is plan-gated and starts at 90 days on Starter.
- We are the vendor writing this guide. Check the sources at the bottom and the free trial rather than taking our word for it.
2.Hireflix
- Best for:
- Small teams that want every feature on the cheapest tier.
- Published price:
- $75 per month billed yearly (Small, under 50 employees); $150 per month billed yearly (Medium, 50 to 250 employees). Month-to-month rate not published.
The cheapest published entry price among the competitors here, and the only one with no feature gating between tiers: white label, custom domains, SSO and the GraphQL API are all included on the entry plan, with unlimited seats, positions and interview responses. Its tiers are banded by company headcount rather than by capability, and it deliberately does not sell AI scoring, only automatic transcription.
Pros
- Cheapest published entry price among the competitors in this guide, at $75 per month billed yearly.
- No feature gating: all plans include all features, including white label, custom domains, SSO and the GraphQL API.
- Unlimited user seats, positions and interview responses on every tier.
- Publishes a one-month free trial, plus a 20% first-year discount for NGOs and companies started in the last two years.
Cons
- The headline price is annual-billed. The month-to-month rate is not published, and the annual toggle is labelled "Save 50%".
- Tiers are banded by company headcount, so crossing 50 employees doubles the price to $150 per month with no added features.
- Above 250 employees there is no published price at all, only a "Custom" plan and a contact form.
- No AI scoring or ranking is advertised; the AI offering is automatic transcription.
3.Willo
- Best for:
- Teams that want AI on the entry tier and can live inside a 2-assessment, 4-user cap.
- Published price:
- Growth £199 per month, or £149 per month billed yearly. Willo also publishes $279 and $209 for the same tier. Scale from £299 per month. Enterprise is custom.
The most transparent pricing page in this category: prices are published in four currencies through an on-page selector, with term toggles down to a three-year commitment. Willo Intelligence (transcription, summaries, benchmarking, follow-up questions) is included on both paid tiers rather than upsold. The catch is the entry tier's caps, which are tight for anything past one or two open roles.
Pros
- Publishes pricing in GBP, USD, EUR and AUD through an on-page currency selector.
- Willo Intelligence (transcribe, summarize, benchmark, follow-up questions) is included on both paid tiers.
- ISO 27001 certified, with MFA on both paid tiers.
Cons
- The Growth tier is capped at 2 assessments and up to 4 users.
- No free plan and no free trial is published on the pricing page.
- Identity, right-to-work and background checks are paid add-ons on both published tiers.
- The deepest published discounts require a two- or three-year commitment.
4.Spark Hire
- Best for:
- Teams that want unlimited jobs and users and will sign an annual agreement.
- Published price:
- $249 per month billed annually, or $299 per month month-to-month capped at 5 jobs and 5 users. The page footnotes "Pricing varies by company size". Recruit ATS from $335 per month billed annually.
One of the few platforms here that publishes a full priced feature-comparison table, covering video interviews, behavioural assessments and its Recruit ATS separately. AI transcription in 50+ languages, auto-summaries and scoring are included at the published price. The published numbers are floors rather than rates: pricing scales with company size, and the ATS is annual-contract-only.
Pros
- Publishes a full priced feature-comparison table, which is rare in this category.
- Unlimited video interviews on every plan, and unlimited jobs and users on annual billing.
- Spark Hire AI (transcription in 50+ languages, auto-summaries, scoring) is included at the published price.
Cons
- The entry price is $249 per month billed annually, and every published figure is footnoted "Pricing varies by company size", so it is a floor.
- No free trial is published, and the page states an explicit no-refunds policy.
- Month-to-month billing costs $299 per month and caps you at 5 jobs and 5 users.
- The Recruit ATS is available only under an annual contract, per its own pricing page.
5.VidCruiter
- Best for:
- Complex, multi-module recruiting workflows bought as a single contract.
- Published price:
- Contact sales. The pricing page publishes no figure, no plan name and no limit.
The broadest published module list in this guide: pre-recorded and live video interviewing, scheduling, structured interviews, automated reference checking, virtual hiring events, skills testing, video proctoring and an ATS. If you genuinely need that surface area under one contract, a quote scoped to your module mix is a reasonable way to buy it. If you wanted a price, the pricing page is a lead-capture form and nothing else.
Pros
- The broadest published module list here: pre-recorded and live interviews, scheduling, structured interviews, automated references, virtual hiring events, skills testing, video proctoring and an ATS.
- Quote-based pricing can be scoped to a specific module mix rather than forcing a bundle.
Cons
- No published pricing at all. The pricing page is a lead-capture form.
- No plan names, tier structure or limits are disclosed, so you cannot self-qualify before a call.
- No free trial or self-serve signup is published.
6.Jobma
- Best for:
- Multi-language hiring priced on a custom quote.
- Published price:
- Contact sales. Its own pricing page is titled "Request a Custom Quote".
Strong on localization: the site ships a language selector covering 15 or more languages, which matters if you are screening across regions. Everything commercial is quote-only. Its pricing FAQ states that packages are custom, based on volume, integrations and feature needs, and no free trial is published on either the pricing page or the homepage.
Pros
- Heavily localized, with a language selector covering 15 or more languages.
- Volume-based custom packaging can suit irregular or seasonal hiring patterns.
Cons
- No published pricing. The pricing page is a quote-request form.
- No plan names or tier structure are disclosed.
- No free trial is published on the pricing page or the homepage.
- The page title concedes the model: "Request a Custom Quote".
7.HireVue
- Best for:
- Enterprise volume, with a procurement function to negotiate the contract.
- Published price:
- Contact sales. The pricing page names an Essential and a Premium package but carries no figure for either.
The enterprise incumbent, and priced like one. Its pricing page segments by industry and hiring use case, names two packages, and offers an ROI calculator and a demo request in place of a number. If you are the buyer an enterprise talent-acquisition suite is built for, that is a normal way to buy; ask for the term, the renewal price and the escalation percentage in writing. It ranks last here only because this guide scores published pricing and self-serve access.
Pros
- Names two packages publicly, Essential and Premium, so buyers know a tier structure exists.
- Publishes a self-serve ROI calculator rather than nothing at all.
- States on the pricing page that it is free for candidates with no app download.
Cons
- No published price anywhere on the pricing page; it is demo-gated.
- No published limits, so the scope of either package is unknowable before a sales call.
- No free trial or self-serve signup is published.
Honest fit
When a quote-only platform is the right answer
If you are the buyer an enterprise talent-acquisition suite is built for, going through sales is the correct move and this guide is not for you. That buyer hires at high volume across many regions and brands, wants career sites, a candidate CRM, scheduling, assessments and screening under one contract, needs deep integration into an enterprise ATS delivered by a named implementation team, and has a procurement function for which a negotiated multi-year agreement is routine rather than a personal risk. A suite bought as a suite is worth more than the sum of its modules. Ask for the term, the renewal price and the escalation percentage in writing, and the enterprise route is a perfectly rational one. This guide is for everyone else: the team that wanted a price and a signup button.

Choosing video interview software: frequently asked questions
Short answers, with what is published and what is not kept clearly separate.
Of the 7 platforms in this guide, 4 publish a price on their own pricing page: 1Way Interview, Hireflix, Willo and Spark Hire. The other 3 publish none and ask you to request a demo or a quote instead: VidCruiter, Jobma and HireVue. That was the state of each vendor's pricing page on 2026-07-26.
Of the 7 platforms here, 2 publish one: 1Way Interview and Hireflix. 1Way Interview's is a fully functional 14-day trial with no credit card and no sales call; Hireflix publishes "Try free for 1 month" on its Small and Medium plans. Willo, Spark Hire, VidCruiter, Jobma and HireVue publish no free trial on their pricing pages. None of the competitors states whether a credit card is required either way, so this guide does not claim one for them.
A one-way, or asynchronous, video interview is a short ordered list of questions that a candidate answers by recording themselves, on their own time, with no interviewer present. The hiring team reviews the recordings later. It replaces the first screening call rather than the final interview, which is why it scales: fifty candidates can answer the same questions overnight without fifty calendar slots.
On five questions applied identically to every platform: is there a published price, can you start without talking to sales, what does the entry tier actually include, is AI screening available and on which tier, and can you export your candidate videos and transcripts. Every answer was read off the vendor's own pricing page on 2026-07-26, and all 7 sources are linked at the bottom of this page. 1Way Interview is our own product, which is why the ranking criteria are stated up front and the sources are published: check them rather than taking our word for it.
Among the platforms here that publish a price, the range starts at $13.99 per month billed annually for 1Way Interview, then $75 per month billed yearly for Hireflix, £149 per month billed yearly for Willo Growth, and $249 per month billed annually for Spark Hire video interviews. VidCruiter, Jobma and HireVue publish no figure at all, so any number you see quoted for them comes from somewhere other than the vendor.
It depends on the vendor, and it is worth checking before you buy. Willo includes Willo Intelligence on both of its paid tiers, and Spark Hire includes its AI transcription, summaries and scoring at its published video interview price. Hireflix includes automatic transcription but does not advertise AI scoring or ranking. On 1Way Interview, AI test validation starts on the $34.99 per month SME plan and is not included on the $13.99 per month Starter plan. VidCruiter, Jobma and HireVue publish no plan for AI to be attached to, since they publish no plans at all.
Ask before you sign, because it decides how expensive leaving is. On 1Way Interview you can download and share candidate videos and transcripts throughout your plan's retention window, which runs from 90 days on Starter up to two years on Unlimited. For the other platforms, export and retention terms are not consistently published on their pricing pages, so put the question in writing during the evaluation.
From $13.99 per month billed annually, or $19.99 per month month-to-month, up to $209.99 per month for the Unlimited plan on annual billing. Every plan and price is listed in the pricing section further down this page. There is a 14-day free trial with no credit card, no implementation fee, and you can cancel from the billing page.
