Screen forty candidates without booking forty calls.

Record the questions once. Send one link. Each candidate's version opens with their name and the role they applied for, then they answer with video inside the player, at whatever hour suits them, against exactly the same prompts. You get a structured set of answers you can scan side by side instead of a calendar with no gaps in it.

01Record the questions

Five minutes of you, on camera, asking what you would ask on the screening call. Sections mark each question.

02Send one private link

Link-only, no-index. It goes in the ATS, the reply email, or the job post, and it does not need an account to open. Their name and the role are already on it.

03They answer in the player

The video pauses at each question and the candidate records their reply right there. No download, no scheduling, no new tool for them to learn.

04Scan, do not sit through

Answers arrive grouped by question with transcripts. Read four candidates on question three in the time one call would take.

Everyone gets the same questions, in the same order, with the same time to think.

A live screening call drifts. The third candidate gets a warmer version of question two because you have had coffee by then. An async screen removes that variance without removing the human: you still see and hear the person, you just see all of them under identical conditions.

  • Time zones

    Candidates elsewhere stop being disadvantaged by your calendar.

  • Transcripts

    A reviewer can read rather than watch.

  • Panel comments

    The hiring panel discusses on the timestamp itself.

Candidate data is the strictest case, and it is handled as one.

Screening shares are private by default: link-only, no-index on the page and the unfurl. Replies and submissions never touch the public media bucket; they are stored by the Worker keyed to the share, readable only by the owner. Per-share retention means a role's recordings can be set to expire when the requisition closes, with deletion requests honoured rather than queued.

Record it once. Deliver it a thousand ways.

No card, no trial countdown, no seat to justify. Record something in the next ninety seconds and see what the link does.
