Aural vs One Way Interview

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.

One Way Interview provides asynchronous video interview software for small businesses screening candidates without scheduling live calls. Interviews can combine video, text, and multiple-choice questions, with multiple-choice responses scored automatically. Optional AI scoring evaluates relevance, clarity, and completeness and can be enabled for each position. The service offers access to more than 1,000 pre-built screening tests, along with interview templates, recording, answer comments, scorecards, and candidate sharing. Teams can add unlimited members and assign role-based access. Candidates record through a browser on smartphones, tablets, and desktop browsers without downloading an app. Breezy HR is a live ATS integration; the company says it connects other ATSs on request, and direct ATS integration is listed on the Unlimited plan. The service is available on Android, iOS, and the web. It has no free plan, but offers a 14-day trial; the listed Starter price is $13.99 a year, billed at $13.99/mo paid annually. Candidate data is described as encrypted at rest and in transit using SSL/TLS 1.2 or higher. The maker is Singapore-based Emunova Pte. Ltd.
