Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about AI Interview Analyzer.
01What is AI Interview Analyzer?
AI Interview Analyzer is a web platform for recording, transcribing, and analyzing job interviews with AI. Recruiters configure the process and work with transcripts, criteria-based evaluations, candidate comparisons, and feedback in the web portal. The optional browser extension keeps recording controls and live guidance beside a video call.
02Does the AI make hiring decisions?
No. AI Interview Analyzer is a decision SUPPORT tool, not a decision maker. The AI provides analysis, scores, and evidence-based insights, but the final hiring decision always remains with the human recruiter. This is by design and aligned with the EU AI Act requirements.
03Is it GDPR compliant?
Yes. We require explicit candidate consent before any recording or analysis. Candidates can request access to their data, request deletion, or withdraw consent at any time. All data is processed and stored within the EU on Microsoft Azure infrastructure (West Europe and Sweden Central regions), and we follow data minimization principles.
04What languages are supported?
Transcription and the application interface are available in 25 languages, including Arabic and all 24 official EU languages. You can conduct interviews and receive analysis in any of these languages.
05How does the credit system work?
Credits are the currency for interview analysis. There are three modes, each with different pricing depending on your plan (ranges show Enterprise to Basic subscription tiers): Provide your own transcript: €0.62–€1.02 per 15-minute interview, or €2.50–€4.08 per 60-minute interview. Upload an audio recording for transcription and analysis: €1.25–€2.04 per 15-minute interview, or €5.00–€8.17 per 60-minute interview. Live recording with real-time transcription and AI hints: €2.50–€4.08 per 15-minute session, or €9.99–€16.33 per 60-minute session. All credits accumulate — no monthly reset. Credits are valid for a minimum of 12 months from purchase. Bulk credit packs can reduce costs even further — the Mega pack (€999 for 10,000 credits) brings a 60-minute live session down to just €8.00.
06Can I use my own transcripts?
Yes — and it's the most affordable way to use the platform. Simply paste or upload your transcript and get full AI analysis, scoring, and feedback. A 15-minute interview costs just €0.62 on Enterprise, and a full 60-minute interview only €2.50. No transcription costs, just pure AI analysis. This is ideal if you already record interviews with your own tools or use a third-party transcription service.
07What does the AI analyze?
The AI extracts questions and answers from the transcript, maps them to evaluation criteria generated from your job description, and provides scored assessments with evidence quotes. It identifies strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. It does NOT analyze voice tone, accent, or any protected characteristics.
08Is the candidate's data safe?
Yes. Candidate data is protected on Microsoft Azure with private networking, no public database access, role-based permissions, and audit logs. Azure OpenAI does not retain your transcripts or use them for training. When a candidate is deleted, their audio, transcript, analysis, and reports are permanently removed. All data stays within the EU.
09Does the candidate know they're being recorded?
Yes, always. Our mandatory consent flow sends an email to the candidate before the interview, explaining exactly what will happen with their data. The interview cannot start without confirmed consent.
10What platforms does it run on?
AI Interview Analyzer runs in the web browser. The web portal covers configuration, recording, transcripts, reports, candidate comparison, and feedback. An optional Chrome or Edge extension adds a convenient Side Panel for recording video calls.
11Can I compare multiple candidates?
Yes. The comparison feature shows candidates in a detailed comparison matrix with per-criterion score breakdowns across all evaluation criteria. You can rank candidates by overall score or drill down to see who performed best on each requirement. Export the comparison as a PDF report.
12How does AI Coach work?
AI Coach is private candidate feedback for candidates who opt in. Before the interview, the recruiter enables AI Coach and the candidate chooses it on the consent page. After analysis, AI generates strengths, areas to improve, and concrete advice in the style of a career mentor. The recruiter never sees or edits this coaching. It is separated from the hiring decision and protected by safety guardrails, including architectural isolation, AI validation, and adversarial testing with 349 inputs. Separately, the recruiter can also compose their own editable feedback with AI assistance.
13Does AI Interview Analyzer integrate with ATS systems?
Yes. On Enterprise, our team can configure a basic read-only integration directly with your ATS when it provides a documented public API and your organization supplies the required access. The standard scope imports recruitments and candidates. Write-back, continuous synchronization, complex field mapping, and other advanced workflows are scoped separately. Standard and Enterprise plans also include our public REST API.
14How much does it cost per interview?
The cost depends on the interview duration, mode, and your plan. Here are the ranges from Enterprise to Basic: Provide your own transcript — 15 min: €0.62–€1.02, 60 min: €2.50–€4.08. Upload audio for transcription — 15 min: €1.25–€2.04, 60 min: €5.00–€8.17. Live recording with real-time AI — 15 min: €2.50–€4.08, 60 min: €9.99–€16.33. The Mega credit pack (€999 for 10,000 credits) lowers costs even further — a 15-minute transcript analysis drops to just €0.50. See our pricing section for plan details.
15What audio setup is required?
The web portal and browser extension use your microphone for your voice and the browser's visible sharing picker for the candidate's audio. In Chrome or Edge, select the tab with the video call and enable tab audio. On Windows, you can also share the entire screen with system audio when the call runs in an installed Teams or Zoom application. Only audio is used for transcription.
16Where is my data hosted?
All data is processed and stored within the EU on Microsoft Azure infrastructure. Primary region: West Europe (Netherlands). AI processing: Sweden Central. No data leaves EU borders. Private network architecture with no public database access.
17Is my data used to train AI models?
No. We use Azure OpenAI, which contractually guarantees zero data retention and zero training on customer data. Your transcripts, audio, and analysis results are never used to improve any AI model.
18How does data retention and deletion work?
Each organization configures their retention period (default: 365 days from hiring decision). When retention expires, all candidate data is permanently deleted automatically. Candidates can also request immediate deletion at any time via GDPR rights. Deletion is irreversible and covers audio, transcript, analysis, and reports.
19Do I need the browser extension?
No. You can configure and record interviews directly in the web portal without installing anything. The Chrome or Edge extension is optional: it keeps recording controls, live transcription, and suggested follow-up questions beside your video call. You can also upload your own audio or transcript.
