Puck is recruiting software for talent acquisition teams, recruiting agencies, and hiring organizations that want structured candidate screening alongside lightweight recruiting operations. Its AI Recruiter conducts phone-based and web-based interviews, creates searchable transcripts and audio recordings, evaluates responses against hiring rubrics, and supports candidate matching and ranking. The platform also combines a lightweight ATS, Talent CRM, job board distribution, nurture campaigns, employer branding, and career-page tools, making it broader than a standalone recruiting chatbot.

The published plans are organized around increasing interview capacity and recruiting workflow depth. Starter costs $300 per month billed annually and includes a lightweight ATS, AI resume review, job board distribution, and Talent CRM. Standard costs $600 per month billed annually and adds up to 200 AI Recruiter interviews per month, ATS integration, a Chrome extension, and expert customer support. Pro costs $1,000 per month billed annually and raises the allowance to 500 interviews while adding branded content creation, talent branding and campaigns, custom candidate workflows, and priority support. Enterprise adds workflow automations, unlimited content creation, interview guides, career sites, and culture pages.

Puck fits organizations that need screening data to flow into a broader recruiting process. Integrations include Workday, Greenhouse, Pinpoint, Lever, Ashby, iCIMs, JazzHR, Comeet, PCRecruiter, and Applicant Pro. Its phone and web delivery, rubric-based evaluation, recordings, matching, and fraud and identity verification signals give recruiters several ways to prioritize candidates. The tradeoff is a screening-led product with tiered interview limits rather than an entry-level free tool. Teams seeking chatbot intake and scheduling as the central workflow should consider whether Puck’s structured interview and recruiting-suite approach matches their needs.
