Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 30 of the 48 other hiring and applicant tracking tools we grade
Metaview is an AI recruiting platform built from separate agents: a sourcing agent, application review, and a notetaker that records and summarizes interviews. Each agent is priced on its own, with a free tier and per-user monthly plans, and it works with ATSs such as Ashby, Greenhouse and Lever.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Metaview, taken from its own pages and our grades.
You connect your ATS and calendar and set up each agent.
- 1
Best for AI notes, sourcing and screening for recruiters
Metaview has three AI agents for recruiters, covering sourcing, application review and interview notes, each with a small free tier.
- 2
Paid plans start at $60 a month for each person
As its pricing page puts it: $60 per user / month for Notetaker Pro.
- 3
There is a free plan
Each agent has a free tier: 100 sourced profiles, 25 notetaker calls a month, or 50 applications reviewed a month.
- 4
It runs on Web
Web.
- 5
Sourcing agent
Searches for candidates around the clock from a profile built from the job description, with free emails and phone numbers for people it finds.
- 6
Application review
Screens inbound applications against an ideal candidate profile and gives a rationale for each decision.
- 7
Notetaker
Records interviews and calls and writes up notes, with assistant questions and note regenerations included.
- 8
A 2.2 GPA, above 30 of 48
That is against the other hiring and applicant tracking tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace Metaview you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for AI notes, sourcing and screening for recruiters
Metaview has three AI agents for recruiters, covering sourcing, application review and interview notes, each with a small free tier. Each is priced on its own, from $60 a user for notes to $300 for unlimited sourcing, so using all three adds up quickly.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Notetaker Pro is $60 a user a month, Sourcing Pro $100 and Application Review Pro $150 for 500 reviews. The cheaper quarter of hiring tools starts at $60, and each agent is billed separately. |
| Free plan and trial | C | Each agent has a free tier: 100 sourced profiles, 25 notetaker calls a month or 50 applications reviewed a month. A busy recruiter will pass those. |
| Features | C | Sourcing, application review, a notetaker, reports and ATS links. But each agent is bought separately, and the Reports add-on's price isn't published. |
| Ease of use | C | No rating on record. You connect your ATS and calendar and set up each agent. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, but it connects to Ashby, Greenhouse, Lever, Gem, SmartRecruiters and Workday, among others. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Metaview is for
- Fits if you want AI interview notes and can start on the free tier
- Works for recruiters who want sourcing and application review in one place
Who it is not for
- Tight if you're staying free: 25 notetaker calls, 100 sourced profiles or 50 reviews a month
- Pricey if you use all three agents, since each is priced separately
- Watch out: free contact enrichment is subject to fair use and can be limited
- Watch out: the Reports add-on is a flat fee with no published amount
- Tight if you need unlimited sourcing, which is Max at $300 a user a month
Good to know
Good for
- Recruiters who want AI notes from every interview
- Teams that buy one agent at a time
- Small teams starting on free tiers
Worth knowing
- Each agent is priced separately, so using all three adds up across sourcing, review and notes.
- Free contact enrichment is subject to fair use and can be limited or removed for misuse.
- The Reports add-on is a flat fee whose amount is not published.
- Sourcing prices are per user; Application Review is a flat $150 a month for 500 reviews.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Metaview you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $720 a year.
What you could make
- Applicant tracking: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- A bot that joins your calls and turns the talk into notes.
- Speech turned into text you can trust.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- It plugs into other products, Ashby, Greenhouse and Lever among them.
What this rests on. Metaview’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
