Equip
What it is
Equip combines an applicant tracking system, CV screening, skill assessments, and AI interviews to support hiring from application through offer. Its ATS handles job posts, interview scheduling, offers, a careers page, and pipeline management. Recruiters can set job criteria for CV parsing and applicant ranking, which Equip says does not use credits. Assessment options include quizzes, programming, communication, psychometric, SQL, Excel, CSS, typing, and custom tests. Candidates can record video, audio, or text answers for one-way interviews, or take part in a back-and-forth interview with an AI bot. The system can create openings, assessments, and interviews without a stated quantity limit, but charges apply per candidate who takes an assessment or interview. AI proctoring monitors camera, microphone, and screen during assessments on every plan. REST APIs support candidate invitations, results retrieval, and pipeline management from a customer’s ATS or internal system. Equip says AI supports recruiters rather than making hiring decisions autonomously. A free ATS plan is available; paid plans start at $30/mo. New teams can use a 30-day trial with 10 free credits without a card.
