# AnswerReel Discussions

AnswerReel is one-way video interview software for small recruiting teams and agencies. You write a few questions for a job and send candidates a link, or post a public apply link. Candidates open it in a browser on their phone or computer, with no account or app, and answer by video, voice or text. By default they can re-record each answer twice. On the questions you pick, AI asks one follow-up about the part of the answer the candidate said least about. Every candidate on that question gets exactly one. For each experience question you write up to three criteria. The AI scores each criterion from 1 to 5 using only what the candidate said, gives a one-line reason, and quotes the candidate's own words for any score above 1. It never looks at faces, expressions, voice, accent or speaking speed; the video and audio are not sent to the model. Scores sort your candidate list. They never reject anyone; a person decides who moves on. Candidates choose before they start whether AI may process their answers. If they say no, nothing is sent to an AI service, they get a follow-up you wrote in advance, and they are flagged at the top of your list for a person to review. Candidates never pay and are never shown offers or ads. For agencies, client workspaces keep each employer's jobs and candidates apart, and shortlist links let a client see the candidates you picked, with AI scores shown only if you choose. Paid plans add your logo, color and welcome message, plus Zapier, webhooks and a REST API for sending results to your ATS or spreadsheet. Every plan includes CSV export. Plans are priced by answers per month, with unlimited jobs and seats. An answer is one candidate submitting their interview, however many questions it has. The free plan covers 10 answers a month with AI scoring and follow-ups included, and needs no card.
