Metaview Screening

The score ignores faces, and a monthly bias audit is public

A missed deadline can reject, and the terms predate Screening

Metaview Global Ltd is the UK company behind Screening. Its American parent owns 75% or more of its shares and votes. Metaview says it has raised $50 million in total. That includes a $35 million round in June 2025 led by GV, Google’s venture arm. No lawsuit naming this company turns up in the court record.

It suits Metaview customers and roles with fifty or more applicants

Metaview sells prepaid interview packs at an unpublished price

Metaview sells interviews in packs you buy in advance and use one at a time. A pack is charged only when a candidate finishes the interview and it is scored. You can build, publish and test a screen before you pay anything.

Metaview’s September 2026 update gave every account its first 25 candidate screens free. After that, you buy packs from inside the product. A pack expires rather than carrying over forever. If your paid interviews run out while a candidate is mid-interview, Metaview finishes that interview anyway. It bills you once you buy more. For high volume, Metaview’s own guidance is to talk to its sales team.

Metaview publishes wider pricing, from free up to $300 a user a month. That covers the rest of what it sells, its sourcing tool among them. It does not include Screening.

Metaview publishes no minimum company size for Screening, and names no seat count you have to hit. Its own FAQ says the product is for anyone involved in hiring, from large employers to small agencies. The case studies under “screening” on Metaview’s site describe its other products. One scores CVs. The other writes up interviews your own people run. Candidates rate Screening 4.7 out of 5, a figure not tied to any named company. Get a named customer result before this goes into a business case.

When you leave, Metaview’s data agreement requires it to delete your candidates’ personal data, or return it if you choose. This happens when your contract ends, or whenever you ask in writing. The law may make it keep some data. Its privacy policy keeps job-application records while the hiring process runs, then for up to 24 months more. Your recruiters can delete a single interview at any time. That removes it for everyone in your account, and it cannot be undone. To clear everything at once, have Metaview’s privacy team set up a rule that deletes it all.

What should you ask before you switch it on?

1. When we require a camera, what is it actually used for? Does any of it change the score? Good answer: No. The score still comes from the transcript, whatever you switch on.
2. Who on our side can turn on the setting that rejects a candidate for missing the deadline? Good answer: One named admin, and a log we can read.
3. Who decides whether our candidates get the option to decline the AI interview? Good answer: A named owner on our side, written into the setup.
4. What happens if a candidate wants a human interviewer instead? What if they need a disability adjustment? Good answer: A route besides writing to our hiring team directly.
5. Once our free interviews run out, what does a further pack cost? What happens to interviews we paid for but never used? Good answer: A written price, and packs that do not expire before we can use them.
6. Which of our systems get the decision sent back automatically? Which ones only get the interview recorded inside Metaview? Good answer: A list naming both groups, including where our own system falls.
7. Your bias audit runs every month and is published. Can you share that data scoped to our own roles? Good answer: Yes, in writing, before we sign.
8. When our contract ends, what is the window to export recordings, transcripts and scores? In what file format? Good answer: A stated number of days, in a common file format such as CSV.

Alternatives to Metaview Screening, including buying nothing

The closest alternatives to Screening are Greenhouse Voice AI, Ribbon, HeyMilo and Tengai. Buying nothing yet is a fifth option.

Greenhouse Voice AI works deepest inside Greenhouse Recruiting. It is also sold on its own. If you run Greenhouse, pick the tool your recruiters already open every day.

Ribbon publishes its price. Its plans start at $499 a month, which covers up to 100 interviews. Beyond that limit, it charges $4.00 an interview. You can work out the bill before you call a salesperson.

HeyMilo can move a candidate forward on their score in six systems. It can also archive or reject them in Workday, Bullhorn and Avionté. Someone on your team has to switch that on. Tengai starts from an assessment, not from a tracking system.

Buying nothing is a real option too. It fits if your roles rarely draw fifty or more applicants each. It also fits if your recruiters keep up without it. In New York City, the bias audit and the candidate notices fall on the employer, not the vendor. Metaview’s own monthly audit covers one piece of that paperwork.
