Metaview
Metaview is a London and San Francisco recruiting platform that began as an AI notetaker for interviews and now runs AI agents for sourcing, application review, and screening alongside the ATS a team already uses.
In-house talent teams and recruiting agencies that run many interviews a week on Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever, or a similar ATS and want automatic interview notes, a shared picture of the ideal candidate, and AI sourcing that starts right after the intake call.
Companies looking for a full applicant tracking system to replace their current one, and very small teams that hire a few people a year.
Verdict
Metaview's interview notes are the reason most teams start, and they remain the strongest part of the product. The newer agents source candidates, review applications against the role, and book screens, and they all work from the same ideal candidate profile, so a correction in one place carries across. More than 7,000 companies use it, including Deel, Affirm, and Replit, and it raised a $60 million Series C in September 2026. Sourcing plans are priced on the site at $100 and $300 per user a month. For any team that hires steadily, it is an easy recommendation.
Score Breakdown
These scores cover how good Metaview's interview notes are, how well its sourcing and screening agents work, how well it fits with existing recruiting tools, and how clear its pricing is, and then how it does as a company on innovation, communication, pricing, and contract terms.
Who Uses Metaview, Where It Fits on Price, and Its Competitors
Metaview sells to recruiters, hiring managers, and executive search partners at startups, Fortune 500 companies, and recruiting agencies. Most teams start with the notetaker for interviews and intake calls, then add the sourcing agent, application review, or fillmore, the autonomous recruiting coworker that sources, writes outreach, and books screening calls. Metaview was founded in 2018 by Siadhal Magos, who led product at Uber, and Shahriar Tajbakhsh, a former Palantir technical lead. It has raised $110 million in total and has about 80 people.
On price, sourcing plans run from free to $300 per user a month, and the full agentic platform is quoted. Its closest competitors are Ashby, Gem, Manatal, and Dover.

How Well Metaview Fits Each Recruiting Use Case
We rated Metaview against the situations talent teams bring to an AI recruiting tool, drawing on its pricing and product pages and its September 2026 funding announcement.
| Use case | Fit | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Interview notes and scorecards | Strong | Notes land in the ATS minutes after each interview. |
| Sourcing from an intake call | Strong | The sourcing agent starts from the role brief without a manual kickoff. |
| Reviewing high inbound volume | Strong | Application review scores candidates against the same ideal candidate profile. |
| Agency and executive search | Strong | Agencies and search partners use the same platform. |
| Replacing the ATS | Poor | Metaview runs alongside an ATS and does not replace it. |
| Light, occasional hiring | Mixed | The free plan helps, but the value grows with interview volume. |
Review Excerpts
These excerpts come from customer quotes Metaview publishes on its pricing page, which the company chose, and from a buyer concern we found in its pricing and product materials. Paid reviews and pay-for-play sites were excluded.
“All of our hiring team said that it saves them hours. We're getting feedback within 10-20 minutes from interviews now, which is ideal for a recruiting team that works with time to hire targets.”
“There is clear impact on time saved. We save 53 hours per month across our recruiting team.”
“Metaview has been a game-changer for reducing admin burden and letting me focus on the call in hand.”
