In short
Tracy AI Interviewer prices by completed interview: $1 per credit, one credit per started 20 minutes, so a 45-minute technical interview is $3. The first 3 results are free, with no seats.
Each interview that produces a result costs credits and comes with own-field follow-ups, a recording and an assessment per question.
At 100 interviews a year Tracy costs $300 against $1,290 for HackerEarth OnScreen; at 500, $1,500 against $4,990. HackerEarth wins when ID checks, proctoring and native ATS decide.
Next step: try three real interviews free, then calculate your own cost.
We make Tracy AI Interviewer.
HackerEarth pricing for its AI interviewer is public. This page lists the plans, shows what 100, 500 and 1,000 interviews cost, and sets them beside Tracy AI Interviewer, which charges for each interview that produced a result. See Tracy's pricing for the full price list.
What does HackerEarth pricing look like for OnScreen?
HackerEarth's agents page lists its AI Interview Agent at $20 an hour and does not define the hour; the OnScreen plans below are the ones on its pricing page. Plans are sold monthly or yearly by the number of interview invites. Growth adds a 30-day free trial, recorded interviews with playback and multi-language support. Scale adds custom roles and permissions, single sign on, premium support and realtime code evaluation. Enterprise adds custom question development, a dedicated account manager, enterprise security and SLAs. HackerEarth says pricing scales with the interview credits consumed, so the invite allowance is the number to size against your volume.

What costs extra on HackerEarth?
Coding assessments and FaceCode live panels are a separate subscription, at $99 a month on Growth and $399 on Scale, and the pricing page suggests buying the two together. SSO and realtime code evaluation start on Scale. You can cancel by emailing support, but amounts already charged are non-refundable.
What does HackerEarth cost at 100, 500 and 1,000 interviews?
This is our arithmetic from the plan prices, not a HackerEarth quote. The Tracy columns show 20 and 45 minutes. Tracy charges one credit for each started 20 minutes, so 45 minutes is 3 credits. At full use OnScreen works out to $10.75 per invite on Growth and $8.32 on Scale. HackerEarth's pricing page sells plans by invite allowance, while its FAQ says you pay for interviews candidates take, so these per-invite figures are the most it can cost per interview.
HackerEarth figures from its OnScreen pricing page, read 9 Nov 2026. Tracy figures are $1 per credit before the first 3 free results. Bring your yearly volume and interview length and we will work out your own cost on a demo call.

At 100 and 500 interviews a year, Tracy's usage cost is a fraction of the cheapest OnScreen yearly plan that covers the volume.
How does Tracy's pricing suit volume?
Tracy has no seats, no plans to climb and no upfront cost. A credit is $1 and covers each started 20 minutes of an interview that produced a result. Credits never expire, and a session with no answers is never charged. Each applicant starts on a click, at any hour, with no scheduling, and a dropped applicant can rejoin within 10 minutes. One customer cut its average time to hire from 44 days to 7. See hiring at volume.
Each finished interview is one row with a score and a View result link.

Is HackerEarth worth its price, and for whom?
If you need government ID checks and a full proctoring stack on every interview, native ATS connectors, and one vendor for assessments and live panels, HackerEarth is built for it, and its 30-day trial lets you test first. If you want the first round to show how each applicant reasons and the cost to follow the number of interviews, at the plan prices above Tracy costs less at 100 and 500 interviews a year, for interviews up to 60 minutes: the first 3 results are free, there is no seat to buy, and the next 100 interviews of up to 20 minutes cost $100. Enterprise is priced to how many interviews you run.
Which path fits you:
- Engineers and other technical roles: technical interviews.
- Hundreds or thousands of applicants: volume hiring.
- A first-round budget: AI interview cost.
What should you ask HackerEarth before you buy?
- What is the first-year total at our volume and at twice our volume, with SSO and realtime code evaluation?
