This is your sourcing and interview intelligence engine. Metaview uses AI to find passive candidates matched to your role requirements, automatically takes structured notes during interviews, and gives you searchable insights across your entire hiring process. You feed it a job description or intake call and it surfaces candidates you’d never find on a job board.
It also integrates with most major ATS platforms so candidates flow straight into your existing workflow.
There’s a free plan to test it (5 interviews), but you’ll want the Pro plan for unlimited sourcing and full interview history.
