04 Where VidCruiter wins

When we'd tell you to stay on VidCruiter.

  • You run live panel interviews3

    VidCruiter does live, panel and one-way video in one place. Truffle is one-way only.

  • You want scheduling and references too3

    VidCruiter books interviews from your team's calendars and runs reference checks. Truffle does neither.

  • Your security review wants certificates3

    VidCruiter lists SOC 2 and ISO 27001. Truffle doesn't hold either yet.

  • You like spending money

    Maybe a pricing call is your idea of a good afternoon. No judgement from us.

Questions

Got questions? Here are answers.

How much does VidCruiter cost?

VidCruiter doesn't say. Its pricing page is a request form. Capterra lists a starting price of $5,000 a year, usage based. A year of Truffle's Starter is $588.

What if I only need one-way video?

Thirty one-way interviews a month fit Truffle's $49 Starter, using 150 of its 200 credits. No sales call to find that out.

Can I still run live interviews somewhere else?

Yes. Screen with Truffle, then hold live rounds in the tool you already use. Truffle is one-way only.

Does the AI decide who moves forward?

No. It transcribes, summarizes and scores against your criteria, with the reasoning shown. The AI never rejects anyone.

We built an entire hiring metaphor to avoid saying “wait, don’t go.” Which is ironic because Truffle helps you get to the point with your candidate pool.
