Puck vs Tellability

Puck is talent acquisition software for attracting applicants, screening candidates, and managing hiring workflows. Its AI Recruiter conducts on-demand phone interviews around the clock and supplies recordings, transcripts, and candidate scores. Candidates start from an SMS link without an app or camera, choose their timing, and can interview in more than 33 languages. Puck says people, not its AI, decide which candidates advance. Employer-branding tools include career sites, job pages, employee audio stories, passive outreach, and branded content. Talent CRM supports candidate relationships and automated outreach or follow-up. Lightweight ATS features cover job posting, candidate review, applicant stages, and collaboration with hiring managers. Listed integrations include Workday, iCIMS, Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, JazzHR, Comeet, PCRecruiter, and Applicant Pro. Plans bill yearly: Starter is $300 a month, Standard $600 a month, Pro $1,000 a month, and Enterprise has no listed price. Standard includes 200 AI Recruiter interviews monthly and Pro 500; extra interviews cost 3 USD each. The site displays a SOC 2 badge, and recordings are usually retained about two years.

Tellability is an AI-powered hiring platform for recruiters and hiring teams, with tools for candidate profiles, sourcing, and screening. Its assistant Tess has a 15-minute conversation with each candidate and provides recruiters with a two-minute summary. Recruiters can upload PDF or DOCX resumes in bulk and receive scores from 0 to 100 against job requirements, then invite selected candidates to chat with Tess. Jobs can be created through AI chat, with recruiter-defined questions for Tess to ask. Match scores help prioritize candidates but do not automatically accept or reject them; recruiters make the final decisions. The Free Pilot includes 50 credits per month, three active job postings, and 50 candidate unlocks. Growth costs ₹3,999/ month and includes 150 monthly credits and up to 10 active postings. Enterprise costs ₹12,999/ month+ and includes custom credits, unlimited job postings and matched candidates, API access, and team seats. Paid plans include a 14-day trial without a credit card. Credits reset monthly without rollover, and one credit covers one candidate screened by Tess. Candidates can use the service free.
