Record without typing
Hit record on your phone before the interview starts. Put it on the table. Focus on the candidate. Hiretape captures every word, even if you’re three people in a conference room.
Built for in-person interviews
For recruiters and agencies who run face-to-face interviews. Hit record, focus on the conversation, get back a clean transcript and AI summary — with every candidate detail in one place. Works in-person, on a phone or laptop. No video meeting needed.
Free for your first 2 interviews. No credit card. No sales call.
You’re sitting across from a candidate. They’re talking about their last role, the salary they want, why they left. You’re trying to listen, ask good questions, and scribble notes at the same time. By the end of the day you’ve done four of these and you can’t remember which candidate said which thing.
A week later your client asks, “Did the candidate confirm they’re open to relocating?” You think so. You hope so. Your notes say “maybe.” Now you have to call the candidate back to ask again — which makes you look unprepared.
A month later a candidate says you promised them something during the interview. You didn’t. But you have nothing to point to except your memory and three lines of shorthand.
Every offline interview deserves a clean record. Hiretape gives you one.
Hit record on your phone before the interview starts. Put it on the table. Focus on the candidate. Hiretape captures every word, even if you’re three people in a conference room.
Within seconds of stopping, you get the full transcript with speaker labels and a structured interview summary — role context, key topics, what they said about salary, notable quotes, gaps to dig into next round.
Every interview you’ve ever done with a candidate, in one place. Round 1, round 2, panel notes, the salary discussion from the screening call. Searchable across your entire workspace.
01 — Tap record
Open Hiretape on your phone or laptop, capture the candidate’s verbal consent (the script is editable), and hit record. Works in any room, no microphone setup, no meeting link.
02 — Run the interview
No typing, no glancing at your laptop. Hiretape keeps recording even if your screen locks or someone calls you. Nothing falls through the cracks.
03 — Get your profile
Stop recording. In under a minute you have the transcript, the summary, and the candidate’s profile updated. Search any interview by keyword. Export the whole thing as a PDF for your client.
If you’re running an agency or working as a solo recruiter, you’re doing five to fifteen interviews a week across different roles and clients. The bottleneck isn’t finding candidates — it’s keeping track of what each one said, presenting them cleanly to your client, and not losing details between Tuesday’s screening and Friday’s panel. Hiretape is built for that workflow.
Hiretape records and transcribes what was actually said. We do not score candidates with AI. We do not infer confidence, honesty, or fit from someone’s voice. Those features are legal landmines and they don’t help you make better hires anyway. You get the record. You make the decision.
Hiretape
Or $250 per seat / year — two months free.
Yes. Hiretape was built for in-person interviews first, which is what most other recording tools handle poorly. But it works just as well for Zoom, Meet, or Teams calls — you record the tab audio plus your mic from any laptop browser. The in-person workflow is just where Hiretape is genuinely better than the alternatives.
Before any recording starts, Hiretape asks the interviewer to confirm the candidate has given verbal consent. The consent script is configurable per workspace — match your jurisdiction’s laws (California, Illinois, and several EU countries require two-party consent) and your company’s policy.
Audio, transcripts, and summaries are stored encrypted on Hiretape’s infrastructure, and automatically synced to your own Google Drive in folders organized by role and candidate. You always have your own copy of everything.
Yes. Workspace admins set a default retention policy (30, 90, 365 days, or indefinite), and you can delete any candidate’s data on request within 30 days — which is what GDPR data deletion requests typically require.
Otter and Fireflies are built for sales calls and team meetings on Zoom. They focus on AI insights and talk-time analytics for online meetings. Hiretape is built specifically for hiring interviews — including the in-person ones those tools can’t handle — and structured around how recruiters actually work: candidate profiles, multi-round tracking, client-shareable exports.
Yes. You can export any interview as a PDF — transcript, summary, your notes — and send it to your client. Or share a link to the candidate’s full profile if you want them to see all rounds at once. Clients don’t need a Hiretape account to view shared PDFs.
Two free interviews. No card. No sales call. Record one tomorrow and see if it changes how you work.
