Looking for a HireVue, HeyMilo, or Apriora alternative?

You're in the right place. This is the directory of every AI interview platform Evy gets compared against — from legacy enterprise (HireVue) and YC-stage upstarts (Apriora's Alex, Lightscreen) to voice-only phone agents (ConverzAI, Classet's Joy) and trust-score black boxes (HeyMilo, Ribbon, Interviewer.AI). Each comparison below opens the full side-by-side.

FAQ

The questions buyers ask before they pick.

Same questions, honest answers, no hedging.

What's the best AI interview platform in 2026?
The right answer depends on whether you want to actually catch cheating or just check a box. Evy is purpose-built for the 2026 problem (half of candidates now use AI assistance during live interviews) and pairs calibrated per-session eye tracking with screen, camera, and full-page activity monitoring. HeyMilo, Ribbon, and HireVue all have some form of integrity feature, but each one is a single tab inside a broader suite rather than the core of the product. If your hiring decisions actually depend on the interview being real, the platform whose anti-cheat methodology is published and explainable wins.
Which AI interview tools have real anti-cheat?
Only a handful name their methodology. Evy publishes its full stack: per-session calibrated eye tracking, screen recording, camera recording, full-page activity (tab switches, copy-paste, window blur), and a lockdown browser. Lightscreen does multi-modal keystroke, audio, and video pattern detection, which catches obvious tells but isn't calibrated per candidate. HeyMilo produces a 'trust score' without disclosing how it's computed; Ribbon and Alex (Apriora) offer integrity modules that bundle identity verification with lighter behavioral signals. HireVue's facial-expression analysis was designed to score answers, not detect cheating. ConverzAI and Classet are phone-only, so there's no camera or screen to monitor in the first place.
How much should an AI interview platform cost?
At market in 2026, transparent per-interview pricing lands between $2 and $8 for video-based conversational interviews depending on commitment; vendors who won't quote a number at all are priced for sales-led contracts, not better tech. Evy is $2–8/interview — $2 on annual seats, $5 on monthly seats, and $8 pay-as-you-go with no monthly minimum. Ribbon starts at $499/mo for 200 interviews ($2.50/int with overage at $3); Classet bills $190/wk per job posting ($760/mo for 50 interviews, ~$15/int). HireVue's published case studies imply $30K+/yr enterprise minimums. If a vendor won't quote you a per-interview number, assume they're priced for the procurement department, not the hiring team.
Which AI interview platforms publish their pricing?
Three publish full pricing on their website: Evy ($2–8/interview tiers on /pricing), Ribbon ($499–$999/mo tiers), and Interviewer.AI (annual credit packs from $636–$804/yr, though avatar interviews consume 2 credits each so effective cost per interview climbs fast). Classet publishes a $190/week-per-job rate. HeyMilo, Alex (Apriora), ConverzAI, HireVue, and Lightscreen all gate pricing behind a sales call. For most buyers, demo-gated pricing means longer eval cycles, awkward negotiation, and the suspicion you're being charged whatever your title can absorb.
Is Evy a good fit for staffing agencies, HR teams, or startups?
Yes. Evy is built for all three, and we publish a dedicated page for each. Staffing and RPO firms use Evy to multiply submits per recruiter without adding headcount (see /for-staffing-agencies). In-house HR and people teams use the screen-recording and transcript trail to stay compliant and defensible (see /for-hr-teams). Startups use the $4 pay-as-you-go tier to hire engineers without a recruiter or a Head of People in seat (see /for-startups). The product is the same in every case; the pricing and onboarding flex to match volume.
