For founders and small hiring teams

Video interview software for small businesses

Hiring often lands on someone who already has another job to do. A founder reads applications after dinner. A team lead squeezes screening calls between customer meetings. A short recorded interview gives that first review a place in the week.

With Hirevly, you create questions for a role and send candidates an interview link. They respond in their browser without creating an account. Your team reviews the answers when there is time to give them proper attention.

Start with one role you hire for regularly

Choose a role where several applicants need the same early questions. Customer support, sales development and operations are useful places to start. Write down what you need to learn before inviting anyone.

Use video when spoken explanation matters. Ask for a text answer when the work involves writing. A file response can be more useful than a camera question for a portfolio or a small work sample. Hirevly lets you combine those formats in the same interview.

A screening workflow you can run with a small team

Create the role and add a short set of questions with preparation time, answer limits and retake settings.
Invite candidates by email. Explain the time commitment and when they can expect a reply.
Review completed responses with the colleagues involved in the hire. Add ratings and notes tied to the actual answers.
Invite promising candidates to a live conversation and use that time for follow-up questions.

Keep ownership clear: one person sends invitations and closes the loop with candidates. Recorded answers do not remove the need to communicate.

Check the whole monthly cost

Decide how many interviews you expect, how many colleagues need access and how long recordings should remain available. Transcription and AI evaluation are optional paid features in Hirevly. Check the final plan in Billing before purchasing.

If you hire once a year, compare the subscription with the time needed to set up and review one campaign. If you screen every week, measure the time spent across a complete month. The calculator below can help you test your assumptions.

When a live call is the better first step

A candidate for a highly specialised role may need to discuss the scope before answering screening questions. A live conversation also gives people a chance to ask about compensation, working arrangements or access needs. Keep that route available.

Hirevly covers structured interview collection and review. If your purchase depends on an ATS connector, SSO or a specific assurance report, confirm that requirement with us before committing.
