A recording can’t ask “why did you do that?”
One-way video scales candidate volume, but it freezes the interview into a set of fixed prompts. The most revealing signal in any hire comes from the follow-up — and a recording can’t follow up.
Fixed prompts. No follow-up.
HireVue
Candidates record answers to a static question set. If someone hedges, contradicts themselves, or gives a rehearsed answer, the system moves on — there is no probe.
SeekerPitch
Sophia adapts in real time: she escalates when a candidate hedges, presses shallow answers, and follows the thread — the way a great hiring manager would.
They grade the video. We assess the judgment.
HireVue
One-way video and general assessments lean on presentation and generic competency models — not whether a GM made the right call under pressure or owns accountability.
SeekerPitch
Every response maps to our 18 role-calibrated soft-skill dimensions — spanning frontline, management, and every role — and is scored with transcript-anchored evidence your team can audit, no black-box rejection.
They end at the recording. We finish the hire.
HireVue
After review, your team restarts the process — building offers and onboarding by hand, with nothing carried over from the interview and everyone running the same generic ramp.
SeekerPitch
On our roadmap, not shipped yet: SeekerPitch will trigger offer-letter onboarding automatically, then ingest your own training program and policies and pair them with the interview’s skills-gap analysis to build individualized, on-brand training for each new hire — not one-size-fits-all — so they close their specific gaps first and reach the floor faster and more productive.
Common questions
What buyers ask when comparing us to HireVue.
How is SeekerPitch different from HireVue’s video interviews?
HireVue is best known for one-way video interviewing — candidates record answers to a fixed set of prompts, and reviewers watch later. SeekerPitch runs a live, adaptive Voice and Video AI interview: Sophia asks real follow-up questions, presses on shallow answers, and scores 18 soft-skill dimensions across frontline, management, and specialist roles with transcript-anchored evidence. It is a conversation, not a recording.
Does SeekerPitch still support video?
Yes. SeekerPitch includes Voice and Video AI screening. The difference is that the interaction is conversational and adaptive rather than a one-way recording, so you evaluate how a candidate thinks in real time — not just how they present to a camera.
Is SeekerPitch faster to deploy than HireVue?
SeekerPitch is an ATS-optional plug-in that connects via open API and typically goes live in weeks with no IT project. Enterprise video platforms often carry longer, configuration-heavy rollouts. Actual timelines vary by organization and ATS complexity.
What happens after the interview?
Unlike a video platform that ends at the recording, SeekerPitch carries the process forward: it is built to carry the process forward. On the roadmap: automated offer-letter onboarding once your team selects a candidate, and an individualized training plan built from your existing programme and the interview’s skills-gap analysis — not a one-size-fits-all checklist. Neither has shipped yet.
How does SeekerPitch pricing and setup compare to HireVue?
SeekerPitch charges $0 for implementation, with no enterprise setup fee and no long-term platform contract required to get started. It connects to your existing ATS via open API and typically goes live in weeks. Enterprise video interviewing platforms often involve larger contracts and configuration-heavy rollouts. Actual costs and timelines vary by organization, so treat this as a general comparison and confirm current pricing directly with each vendor.
Is any candidate rejected automatically by the AI?
No. SeekerPitch never auto-rejects. Sophia produces evidence-backed recommendations with full transcripts, and your team makes every final hiring decision. The platform is built to be EEOC, CCPA, and GDPR aware.
