Prices in USD. Every plan is paid, with no free tier. Each plan CTA opens a quick signup so we can set up your account, not a checkout. See every feature or how it works.

No free plan, because the interactive scorecard is your free trial.

Pick a role, send a sample assessment and watch SkillJudge score real work against the rubric before you pay a cent. You see the overall grade, the per-skill sub-scores and the evidence for yourself, then choose a plan when you are ready.

What screening really costs

Manual screening vs SkillJudge

Screening by hand means hours of take-home reviews, panel debates and inconsistent calls, or an agency fee per placement. A flat monthly plan turns all of that into a scored, ranked shortlist.

Manual reviews

Hours per role

Senior engineers reading take-homes, scoring by feel, and debating in panels. The bar drifts between reviewers and the cost never stops.

A recruiting agency

15-25% of salary

A percentage of first-year salary per placement, with little visibility into how each candidate was actually judged.

SkillJudge

$99-$599/mo flat

Real work scored against a rubric, per-skill sub-scores with evidence, and a ranked shortlist. A flat monthly fee, the same bar for everyone.

On every plan

Every plan returns a real scorecard

No matter which plan you pick, SkillJudge scores real work against a transparent rubric and returns an explainable candidate scorecard. You only size up for more seats and scored candidates.

Per-skill sub-scores

Every candidate scored on a red to amber to green scale, on every plan.

Evidence-linked rationale

Each sub-score points to the work that earned it, so the grade is defensible.

Human decides

The AI scores and ranks. You always make the final call, override and re-rank.

Candidate data stays yours

Assessment data is yours, never sold and never used to train public models.

Pricing questions

Quick answers before you pick a plan

No, and there does not need to be. The interactive scorecard demo on the homepage is your free trial: pick a role, send a sample assessment and watch SkillJudge score real work against the rubric before you ever pay. Every plan is paid, in USD, so the product stays fast and focused on teams hiring for real.
Pick monthly or annual with the toggle above. Monthly is billed every month and you can cancel anytime. Annual is billed once for the year and works out to roughly two months free, so Growth is $208 a month billed annually instead of $249 month to month.
One scored candidate is one person you assess and SkillJudge scores against the rubric, returning an overall grade, per-skill sub-scores and evidence. Sending the assessment, building the scorecard and ranking the shortlist are all included, so the scored-candidate volume is the only number you size up as you hire more.
Yes. Move up or down a plan as your hiring volume changes, and cancel anytime. Nothing locks in, and your seats, rubrics, calibration settings and past scorecards stay with your account.
Enterprise is a custom plan for high-volume teams and agencies that need unlimited seats, custom volume, bespoke rubrics, SSO, audit logs and an SLA. Choose Talk to sales and we will set it up with you. There is no waiting list, the product is live today.
