|---|---|---|---|

Tracy's cost is a number you can compute before any call: $1 per started 20 minutes, no seats.
Why can a quote cost more per interview at low volume?
This is our reasoning, not an Eightfold price. A quote usually comes down to one yearly number: licence, implementation and integrations. Divide it by the interviews you complete. Each $1,000 of first-year quote equals 1,000 Tracy interviews of up to 20 minutes, so if you will complete fewer interviews of up to 20 minutes than your quote has dollars, pay as you go costs less per interview. Longer interviews use more credits. See AI interview cost for the wider market.
What should you ask on an Eightfold quote call?
Bring the same list to every vendor you shortlist:
- Is AI Interviewer sold alone or inside a larger contract?
- What is the unit: per interview, per candidate, per hire, per employee or a flat fee?
- What is the first-year total at our volume, and at twice our volume?
- Is implementation included, and what are the term and renewal terms?
- Are ATS connectors, the Oracle integration and an API in the price?
- Can we run it live on our own role and see the recording and report?
Tracy answers the money questions on her pricing page, so the call can go to fit.
Each interview that produces a result returns four things a person can decide from.
