One-way video interview software costs anywhere from about $29 a month to custom enterprise contracts. As of October 9, 2026, published entry prices are $29/month for RecRam Starter, $49/month for Hirevire Essentials and for Truffle Starter, $59 (£49) per live role for Willo Lite, $75/month billed yearly for Hireflix, and $249 to $299/month for Spark Hire Video Interviews. HireVue, VidCruiter, Jobma and Radancy (formerly myInterview) do not publish prices.
Entry prices for one-way video interview software range from $29/month (RecRam Starter) to $249 to $299/month (Spark Hire), and four vendors price on request. The pricing model matters more than the sticker price, because vendors count roles, credits, minutes, interviews or recorded answers.
- Vendors charge in six ways: a monthly allowance, per live role, by company size, by credits, per minute of video, or by custom contract.
- One 5-question video interview counts as 1 interview on Hirevire, 5 credits on Truffle, 5 clips on RecRam and about 10 minutes on VideoAsk with 2-minute answers.
- RecRam and Hirevire are cheapest for a role or two, Truffle is efficient up to about 40 interviews, and Hireflix’s flat $75/month billed yearly wins once volume grows.
- Several “per month” prices are billed yearly: Spark Hire is $249/month billed annually but $299 on monthly billing.
- Before you sign, ask what is counted, what happens at the cap, and whether integrations, API access or single sign-on cost extra.
The sticker price is only half the story. These vendors charge in very different ways: per month, per live role, per company size, per credit, per minute of video, or per recorded answer. This guide lays out each pricing model, what the entry plan includes, the hidden costs to check before you sign, and what three typical hiring months actually cost on each tool.
RecRam publishes this guide and is one of the tools listed. Every competitor price below was checked on the vendor’s own pricing page, which we link so you can confirm it.

The six pricing models, explained
1. Monthly subscription with an allowance
You pay a flat monthly fee for a set number of jobs, users, interviews or recordings. RecRam, Hirevire and Spark Hire’s monthly plan work this way. It is predictable, but check two things: what the allowance counts (a whole interview, or each recorded answer) and what happens once you exceed it. RecRam counts each recorded answer as one clip, so a 5-question video interview uses 5 clips per candidate.
2. Per live role
Willo Lite charges for each role you have open in a month. That is cheap if you hire for one or two roles at a time and adds up if you always have several roles open.
3. By company size, unlimited usage
Hireflix prices by your number of employees and does not cap seats, positions or responses on its published plans. This is usually the cheapest model at high volume.
4. Credits per action
Truffle sells a monthly pool of credits and charges different amounts per action: 1 credit per screened resume, 2 per assessed candidate and 5 per one-way video interview. It is flexible if you mix resume screening and interviews, but you need to convert credits back into candidates to compare it with anything else.
5. Per minute of video
VideoAsk, a general video form tool, meters plans by minutes of recorded video and audio. In hiring, every candidate answer counts against the allowance, so costs rise quickly with volume.
6. Custom contract
HireVue, VidCruiter, Jobma and Radancy price through sales. Expect a demo, a quote based on volume and modules, and usually an annual commitment.
What each vendor charges, in detail
Spark Hire pricing
Spark Hire’s pricing page lists Video Interviews starting at $299/month on monthly billing (credit or debit card required), limited to 5 active jobs and 5 users at a time. The annual plan starts at $249/month billed annually, with unlimited jobs and users.
Both include unlimited one-way and live interviews, invitations by link, SMS or CSV with automated reminders, customizable take limits and think time, transcription in 50+ languages, auto-summaries, submission scoring, interview scorecards and 40+ ATS integrations. The annual plan adds live onboarding, a Customer Success Manager and interview downloads.
The same page lists API access, single sign-on and additional brands as paid add-ons. It says refunds are not offered and that interview data is kept for 30 days after cancellation. Spark Hire also sells an ATS, Recruit, starting at $335/month billed annually. See our Spark Hire alternative comparison.
Willo pricing
Willo’s pricing page has a currency selector for GBP, USD, EUR and AUD. Willo Lite is $59 per live role in US dollars (£49 in pounds), with no contract. It covers up to 5 live roles, 150 assessed candidates per role and up to 5 users, and includes Willo Intelligence, an assessment library, custom scorecards and anti-cheat. Integrations on Lite are Zapier and Integrately.
Willo Enterprise starts at $3,799 a year (£2,999) on a one-year term, with 10% and 15% savings on two- and three-year terms. It is billed annually and payable monthly or quarterly. Enterprise adds SSO, 12+ months of data retention and 50+ native ATS integrations such as Workday, Greenhouse and Lever. The comparison table lists an open API on both plans. ID, right-to-work and background checks are sold as credits. Willo also offers a 50% nonprofit discount on application. See our Willo comparison.
Hireflix pricing
Hireflix’s pricing page lists $75/month billed yearly for companies with fewer than 50 employees and $150/month billed yearly for 50 to 250 employees. Both include unlimited seats, positions and responses and a one-month free trial. Larger companies, agencies and high-volume processes get a custom plan.
A monthly option is also offered, and the page advertises a 50% saving for paying annually. The page says all plans include all features, including transcriptions, native ATS integrations and white labeling. New companies and NGOs can ask for 20% off the first year. See our Hireflix comparison.
Hirevire pricing
Hirevire’s pricing page lists three self-serve tiers:
- Essentials: $49/month, or $39/month billed yearly, for 1 job, 1 user and 300 interviews a year.
- Professional: $149/month, or $99/month billed yearly, for 5 jobs, 5 users and 1,200 interviews a year.
- Agency: $249/month, or $199/month billed yearly, for 20 jobs, 15 users and 12,000 interviews a year.
An Enterprise plan is custom, and a separate Platform Plan starts at $1,499/month. All paid plans include a 7-day free trial with no card. The page says AI features, including scoring each answer from 1 to 5, are included on every paid plan.
Truffle pricing
Truffle’s pricing page lists credit-based plans with unlimited team members and positions:
- Starter: $49/month, monthly billing only, 200 credits a month for 1 to 2 roles. It is a hard cap with no overages and no rollover.
- Core: $119/month, or $99/month billed annually, 600 credits for 2 to 4 roles. Unused credits roll over for 12 months, and extra credits cost $0.25.
- Team: $239/month, or $199/month billed annually, 1,500 credits for 6 to 10 roles.
A one-way video interview costs 5 credits, so Starter covers about 40 interviews a month if you use credits for nothing else. All plans include AI Match scores with reasoning, transcripts and assessments, and there is a 7-day trial with 30 credits and no card.
HireVue pricing
HireVue’s pricing page shows no prices or plans. It links to a demo request and an ROI calculator and describes the platform as built for mid-market to enterprise. Its modules include conversational AI, an AI interviewer for screening, assessments, scheduling and video interviewing. Expect a custom quote. If HireVue is more than you need, see our HireVue alternatives for small and mid-size teams.
VidCruiter, Jobma and Radancy pricing
- VidCruiter: its pricing page is a request form. It lists pre-recorded and live video interviews, scheduling, skills testing and its own ATS.
- Jobma: its pricing page says it offers custom packages based on volume, integrations and feature needs.
- Radancy: myinterview.com now redirects to Radancy’s Screening and Scheduling page, which offers a demo rather than prices. Our myInterview comparison has background.
VideoAsk pricing
VideoAsk’s pricing page says minutes are counted every time you or your respondents create video or audio, that unused minutes do not roll over, and that customers expecting more than 200 minutes a month should start on its Brand plan.
The page offers a free account plus paid Grow and Brand plans, but the plan prices and minute allowances did not render for us on October 9, so confirm them on the page. In hiring, a 5-question interview with 2-minute answers uses about 10 minutes per candidate, so divide your plan’s monthly minutes by 10 to see how many candidates it covers. See our VideoAsk comparison.
RecRam pricing
RecRam’s pricing page lists two plans:
- Starter: $29/month, or $26/month billed annually. 100 video/audio clips, 250 form submissions, 100 AI credits and 1 team member a month.
- Professional: $99/month, or $79/month billed annually. 250 clips, 1,000 form submissions, 1,000 AI credits and 3 team members a month.
How clips are counted: a clip is one recorded answer (video, audio or screen), whatever its length up to the 10-minute maximum. A 5-question video interview uses 5 clips per candidate, so Starter covers 20 candidates a month on that interview and Professional covers 50. Text answers use no clips.
What costs extra: packs of 100 clips are $24/month, an extra team member is $12/month, and 1,000 extra AI credits are $25 one-time. Transcription, per-answer summaries and keywords run automatically on every recording without using credits. AI credits are only spent on optional AI extras you start yourself, such as AI captions for form videos and Showcase clip tools.
What’s included on both plans: native HubSpot, Slack, Google Sheets, Zendesk and Google Calendar integrations, Zapier, n8n, signed webhooks, the REST API and branding removal. There is a 28-day free trial with no credit card, a 14-day money-back guarantee and a 20% nonprofit discount. RecRam has no native ATS integrations; ATS connections go through Zapier, Make, n8n or webhooks.
Hidden costs checklist
Before you sign, ask every vendor these questions. They are where the real price usually differs from the headline.
- Is the headline price annual-only? Several “per month” prices are billed yearly. Ask what monthly billing costs and whether you can cancel.
- What exactly is counted? A “response” can mean a whole interview, one recorded answer, or a minute of video. Convert every allowance into candidates per month for your interview length.
- What happens at the cap? Check limits on jobs, users, candidates, responses, credits and minutes, and whether you can buy more mid-month or hit a hard stop.
- Are monthly plans restricted? Some monthly plans cap jobs and users that the annual plan does not.
- Do integrations cost extra? Native ATS integrations, API access and single sign-on are sometimes add-ons or enterprise-only.
- Are AI features metered? Some tools include AI on every plan; others meter it with credits or reserve it for higher tiers.
- How long is the contract? Multi-year terms bring discounts but lock you in.
- What is the refund and cancellation policy? Some vendors do not refund once service starts.
- What happens to your data when you leave? Ask how long recordings are kept after cancellation and whether you can export them.
- Which currency and taxes apply? Prices may differ by currency, and sales tax or VAT is usually extra.
- What does setup cost in time? A tool without native ATS integrations may need a Zapier or Make workflow that someone has to build and maintain.
Copy these questions into your email to each vendor:
Before we decide, could you answer these pricing questions? 1. Is the headline price billed yearly? What does monthly billing cost, and can we cancel? 2. What exactly is counted: a whole interview, one recorded answer, or a minute of video? 3. What happens at the cap? Can we buy more mid-month, or is it a hard stop? 4. Does the monthly plan cap jobs or users that the annual plan does not? 5. Do native ATS integrations, API access or single sign-on cost extra? 6. Are AI features included, metered with credits, or reserved for higher tiers? 7. How long is the contract, and what discounts apply to longer terms? 8. What is your refund and cancellation policy? 9. How long are recordings kept after cancellation, and can we export them? 10. Which currency do you bill in, and are sales tax or VAT extra? 11. What setup is needed to connect to our ATS?
How to estimate your real cost
- Count your monthly volume. Roles open per month, candidates invited per role, and questions per interview.
- Map it to each model. Per-role tools charge on roles; response-based tools charge on answers; minute-based tools charge on recorded time.
- Add the extras. Seats, integrations, SSO and any add-ons from the checklist above.
- Compare annual and monthly totals. Then decide whether flexibility is worth the difference.
To run these four steps on your own numbers, paste this into an AI assistant along with the prices from this guide:
I'm comparing one-way video interview software. My typical month: [number] open roles, [number] candidates invited per role, and [number] questions per interview, of which [number] need a recorded answer. For each tool and plan I paste below: 1. Convert my month into what that plan counts (roles, interviews, credits, minutes or recorded answers). 2. Pick the cheapest plan that covers it, including any packs or add-ons, and flag any hard caps. 3. Add extras I need: [seats / ATS integration / SSO]. 4. Show the monthly and the yearly-billed cost side by side. [paste prices and plan limits here]
Three hiring months, priced on every published plan
Each scenario uses a 5-question video interview. Prices are the lowest published option per month, before tax, checked October 9, 2026. “Yr” means billed yearly.
| Tool | A: 1 role, 20 candidates (100 answers) | B: 2 roles, 40 candidates (200 answers) | C: 4 roles, 100 candidates (500 answers) |
|---|---|---|---|
| RecRam | $29 (Starter) | $29 + $24 (Starter + 1 clip pack) | $29 + $96 (Starter + 4 packs, 1 user) or $99 + $72 (Professional + 3 packs, 3 users) |
| Truffle | $49 (Starter, 100 of 200 credits) | $49 (Starter, all 200 credits) | $99 yr / $119 (Core, 600 credits) |
| Hirevire | $39 yr / $49 (Essentials) | $99 yr / $149 (Professional) | $99 yr / $149 (Professional, uses the full 1,200 a year) |
| Willo Lite | $59 | $118 | $236 |
| Hireflix (under 50 employees) | $75 yr | $75 yr | $75 yr |
| Spark Hire | $249 yr / $299 | $249 yr / $299 | $249 yr / $299 |
The pattern is clear: RecRam and Hirevire are cheapest for a role or two, Truffle is efficient up to about 40 interviews, and Hireflix’s flat price wins once volume grows.
On RecRam you can lower the count by asking factual questions as text, which uses no clips.

How much does Willo cost?
Willo Lite is $59 per live role in US dollars (£49), with no contract. Willo Enterprise starts at $3,799 a year (£2,999) on a one-year term.
How much does HireVue cost?
HireVue does not publish prices. Its pricing page offers a demo and an ROI calculator, so you will need a custom quote.
Is there a free one-way video interview tool?
None of the dedicated hiring tools we checked advertise a permanent free plan. Free trials are common: Hireflix offers one month, RecRam 28 days, and Hirevire and Truffle 7 days.
What counts as a “response” in video interview pricing?
It varies, which is why headline prices mislead. Hirevire counts interviews, Truffle charges 5 credits per interview, VideoAsk counts minutes, and RecRam counts each recorded answer as one clip (a 5-question video interview is 5 clips). Hireflix and Spark Hire don’t cap interviews on their published plans.
What is the cheapest option for high-volume screening?
Among published prices, Hireflix’s unlimited-response plans are usually cheapest at high volume, because cost does not rise with the number of candidates. In our 100-candidate scenario it was $75/month billed yearly, against $99 to $236 for capped, credit and per-role plans.
