It is built for the owners and operators who run hiring themselves — the people who hire without a recruiter — at small and growing companies hiring year-round for high-volume, low-resume-signal roles. Truffle replaces the first-round phone screen with structured async screening. AI transcribes every response, scores candidates against criteria you define, and surfaces match scores, AI summaries, and 30-second Candidate Shorts so you review a candidate in seconds instead of scheduling a 15-minute call. The principle behind every feature: AI surfaces information. Humans make hiring decisions. WHY CANDIDATE SCREENING BROKE Easy-apply and AI-generated resumes mean every job posting gets hundreds of candidates who all look the same on paper. The person doing the hiring cannot muscle through that volume the way they used to. Phone screens do not scale to hundreds of applications per role. The signals people relied on for decades, like resumes, cover letters, and even assessment answers, are now compromised by AI tools any candidate can use. The industry's answer has been to hand more decisions to AI. Let algorithms score, rank, and decide who moves forward. But the people who own the outcome of a hire do not trust AI to pick for them, and they should not. Their value is judgment. Truffle's approach is different. The way out is not better AI decisions. It is giving the person doing the hiring the evidence to make faster human ones. WHAT TRUFFLE DOES Truffle gives you three layers of evidence to separate real candidates from noise. Each layer captures a signal the others cannot, and each is harder to fake than the last. Resume screening: Upload your role criteria once. AI parses every resume and ranks applicants against your requirements. Qualification gaps surface clearly. No keyword filtering. One-way video interviews: Candidates record on their own time, on any device, no app download required. AI transcribes every answer, scores responses against the criteria you set, and surfaces 30-second Candidate Shorts of the most relevant moments. Talent assessments: Three types out of the box. Personality (validated Big Five / IPIP based), Situational Judgment Tests built around your team's real scenarios, or Environment Fit. Lightweight enough that someone juggling 26 open roles will actually use them. Use one capability on its own, stack two, or use all three. Truffle does not force a sequence. The screening process is yours to design. When you stack the layers, the evidence compounds. Resumes show credentials. Interviews reveal communication and presence on camera, something no chatbot can replicate. Assessments prove capability and temperament under real conditions. Each is harder to game than the last. AI FEATURES INCLUDED ON EVERY PLAN AI Match: Match scores against your role criteria with reasoning shown for every score. You see exactly why each candidate scored the way they did, criterion by criterion. The AI applies your standard. The standard is yours to set. AI summaries: Executive-style overviews of every candidate. Strengths, gaps, and alignment with role criteria highlighted. Designed to orient a reviewer in 30 seconds. Candidate Shorts: AI identifies the three most relevant moments from each interview and compiles them into a 30-second highlight reel with context on why each moment was selected. Full interview transcripts: Every video response is transcribed, searchable, and exportable. AI Check (Beta): Flags response patterns that suggest AI assistance, surfacing as a context signal you can use to ask better follow-up questions. Never an automatic disqualification. AI-suggested interview questions: Tailored to the role and seniority level. You review, edit, and approve every question before launch. AI assists configuration, not evaluation.
