Maki review
A screening and interview layer for teams extending an existing ATS with AI.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Maki is an AI hiring intelligence platform for enterprise recruiting teams. It works above an organization’s existing ATS and coordinates hiring activities from intake through hire recommendation. Its capabilities include short structured skills assessments, conversational voice and web screening, role-calibrated evaluations, interview scheduling, and interview support. Candidate invitations, workflow progression, structured scoring, transcripts, evidence, and competency scoring are handled across the screening and interview process. Branded and multilingual candidate experiences are also available for teams that need a consistent hiring journey.
The product’s strongest fit is an organization that already relies on a supported ATS or HR system and wants to add structured AI screening without replacing that system. Maki integrates with Greenhouse, iCIMS, SAP SuccessFactors, Eightfold, Cornerstone, Workday, Oracle, Avature, UKG, SmartRecruiters, Teamtailor, Workable, Lever, JazzHR, and Taleo. Two-way result synchronization helps return candidate progress and assessment outcomes to connected systems, while calendar synchronization supports automated interview scheduling. The interview co-pilot adds transcription, structured notes, and competency scoring for interview workflows.
Maki’s published Enterprise plan uses a usage-based credit model for AI agents and includes ATS and HR system integrations, role-based administration, audit logs, guided onboarding, and multilingual support. Pricing requires contacting sales. Because Maki is positioned as a screening layer, teams seeking a complete ATS with career-site tools, candidate parsing, and job distribution should consider a broader platform. It suits enterprise recruiting operations that prioritize AI assessments, conversational screening, scheduling, and synchronized workflows; it is less suitable for organizations looking for a standalone applicant tracking system.
