Comparison · Vettika + Greenhouse

Greenhouse runs your ATS. Vettika runs the first-round interview.

Greenhouse manages your pipeline, structures your scorecards, and keeps your hiring data clean. It does not conduct a live two-way voice interview with every applicant at $1.90 a call. That is Vettika — and we push the transcript and rubric score back into your Greenhouse profile the moment the call ends.

The right framing

Replace Greenhouse? No. Extend it with a live AI first-round.

Greenhouse is an ATS. What Greenhouse does not ship is a live two-way conversational AI interviewer. There is no Greenhouse product that picks up when a candidate clicks a link, conducts a 12-minute voice screen, follows up dynamically on their answers, and outputs a per-criterion rubric score.

Greenhouse's native first-round path still runs through a human: a recruiter books a phone screen, fills in the Greenhouse scorecard, and advances or rejects. The bottleneck is the calendar. Vettika removes that calendar entirely.

Greenhouse customers who add Vettika describe the split the same way every time:

“Greenhouse is the system of record. Vettika is the interview.”

Dropout data

The dropout numbers — from Greenhouse's own 2026 research

Source: 2026 Greenhouse Candidate AI Interview Report (April 2026, 2,950 US job seekers)

38%

of US candidates have already left a hiring process because it included an AI interview

33%

of US dropouts cite one specific trigger: pre-recorded, AI-scored video with no human and no two-way conversation

70%

of candidates were never clearly told upfront that AI would evaluate them

Vettika's format is built to sidestep these triggers

A live two-way voice call. No camera. No recorded monologue. Compliance disclosure appears before the call starts on every interview. Candidates know what they are walking into — which is exactly what 70% of them never got.

Why it works

The calendar was always the bottleneck. Not the interview itself.

Minutes, not days

Candidates complete a Vettika first-round within minutes of applying. No booking link. No waiting for recruiter availability. The 2–5 day scheduling gap disappears.

Unbounded parallel throughput

One recruiter running 200 applications cannot schedule 200 first-round calls in a week. Vettika runs them all simultaneously — and delivers a scored report for each one.

Everything stays in Greenhouse

The transcript, rubric scores, and recommendation post as a candidate note. Your Greenhouse workflow, your scorecards, your pipeline stages — untouched. You just have more signal per candidate.
