Aural vs IntervueBox

Aural is a platform for conducting structured, adaptive interviews by chat, voice, or video. Its AI interviewer changes the depth, tone, and direction of follow-up questions based on participant responses. Interviews can be live or asynchronous and recorded; sessions are automatically transcribed and summarized, with structured results exportable as XLSX or PDF. Templates support open-ended, multiple-choice, rating-scale, coding, and whiteboard questions. Aural supports interview languages including English, Chinese, Spanish, French, and German. It provides a REST API with Bearer-token authentication and an OpenAPI specification, but does not provide webhooks or official SDKs. Aural is open source under the MIT license and can be self-hosted; that version supports pluggable LLMs including OpenAI, Kimi, MiniMax, or compatible APIs. Aural states that data is encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.3, and that it complies with GDPR and other global privacy regulations. The free plan includes three templates, 100 AI tokens, 30 minutes of session time, and one seat. Paid plans include usage-based pricing and a Starter plan at $9 a month.
