Do we have to move off our ATS?

Alphie runs inside your ATS. It utilizes your current candidate pool to handle sourcing, screening, candidate communication and interview scheduling for you.

What exactly does Alphie handle for us?

Sourcing the top 5 best fits for each open role from your existing candidate pool, running 15-minute voice screening interviews, scheduling the interviews with your team, and writing and sending approval and rejection emails. You handle the decisions.

How is candidate data handled?

Candidate data handled through Alphie — including interview recordings and reports — is stored securely on Alphie's encrypted servers. It is never shared with, or visible to, anyone outside your company, and never becomes part of Alphie's broader candidate pool. This includes a signed Data Processing Agreement (DPA), EU-region-only processing and storage, and an audit log of every Alphie API call into your ATS instance.

A one-off setup fee to build and connect Alphie to your ATS, plus a monthly subscription scoped to your hiring volume. Book an intro call and we scope it to your roles.

Comparison

Alphie Recruiter vs HireVue

Updated 26 August 2026

Short answer: HireVue is a video interviewing and assessment platform — candidates record answers or take tests, and recruiters review them. Alphie runs a live 15-minute AI voice interview conducted like a recruiter would, then produces a scored report, and also handles rediscovery, ranking, scheduling and candidate replies inside your existing ATS.

	Alphie Recruiter	HireVue
Interview format	Live AI voice interview, conversational and adaptive	Recorded one-way video answers and assessments
Output	Scored, question-by-question report with reasoning and a recording	Recorded answers, assessment scores
Scope	Rediscovery, ranking, screening, scheduling, replies	Interviewing and assessment
Where it lives	Inside your existing ATS (Greenhouse, Ashby, BambooHR…)	Separate platform with ATS integrations
Candidate experience	Conversation; candidate also gets a report on their own performance	Recording answers to prompts
Candidate-side tools	Fit reports, CV tailoring, prep briefs, mock interviews	None
Data handling	EU-only processing and storage, DPA, audit-logged ATS calls	Enterprise contracts, varies by region
Setup	One onboarding call, no migration	Enterprise implementation

When HireVue is the better fit

Large enterprises running standardised, validated assessments across thousands of candidates — especially where the assessment science and compliance tooling are the point — get more out of HireVue's assessment library than out of a conversational screen.

When Alphie is the better fit

Teams that want a first round that actually feels like an interview, not a webcam form. Alphie speaks with the candidate, probes the answers, and returns a report the hiring manager can read in two minutes. It then schedules the next round and drafts the reply — so the whole stage closes without recruiter admin.

Transparency and control

Alphie never auto-rejects. Scores come with visible reasoning tied to what the candidate actually said, and the approval or rejection email is drafted for a human to send. That is a deliberate difference from platforms where AI-assisted filtering happens before a person sees the candidate.
