What Is Truffle?

Truffle is a candidate screening software designed for startups and small to mid-sized HR teams managing high-volume hiring. Built for in-house recruiters and Talent Acquisition (TA) leads at companies with roughly 100–1,000 employees, it helps teams hiring year-round for high-volume, low-signal roles.

The platform replaces traditional first-round phone screens with structured async screening. Candidates complete resumes, one-way video interviews, and assessments on their own time, on any device.

Truffle automates resume screening, one-way video and audio interviews, and talent assessments to evaluate candidates efficiently. AI-generated summaries, scoring, and candidate insights help teams prioritize applicants, reduce manual review time, and make faster, evidence-based hiring decisions.

It provides AI Match scores, executive-style candidate summaries, and short 30-second 'Candidate Shorts' that highlight the most relevant parts of interviews, allowing recruiters to review candidates in seconds instead of scheduling calls.

Truffle Pricing

The Truffle cost for its Self-Serve plan starts at $149/month, or $99/month when billed annually. A custom plan is available for organizations needing higher candidate volume, API access, integrations, extended data retention (24+ months), SSO/SAML, and dedicated onboarding.

A 7-day free trial is available with full feature access.

Truffle Features

One Way Video And Audio Interviews

Truffle features one-way video and audio interviews that transcribe, summarize, and score candidate responses automatically. Users can watch concise 90-second Candidate Shorts instead of long phone screens, helping teams quickly evaluate communication, fit, and skills while saving significant time in high-volume hiring processes.

Resume Screening

Truffle features AI-powered resume screening that analyzes applications against job descriptions in seconds. The platform prioritizes candidates based on experience, qualifications, and must-have skills, allowing teams to focus review efforts on the most promising applicants and drastically reduce time spent manually sorting through resumes.

See How It Works
Candidate Shorts

The software generates Candidate Shorts, brief 30-second recaps of interviews. These summaries highlight key insights from video and audio responses, enabling hiring teams to quickly compare applicants, identify strengths and weaknesses, and make evidence-based decisions without spending hours reviewing full-length interviews.

See How It Works
Talent Assessments

The platform offers talent assessments that evaluate skills and behaviors critical to each role. By focusing on measurable criteria rather than universal right answers, Truffle helps recruiters identify candidates who genuinely align with job requirements, reducing bias and ensuring shortlists are based on real capability and fit.

Automated scoring saves time

Pros

Recording interviews is one of the best ways to run selection processes especially in my role as an educator, where we often need to pick top students. Here I find Truffle to be the most effective and simple tool for this. It gives a clear workflow for evaluations, lets me customize questions and includes AI features that save time. Also the automated scoring helps a lot when grading interviews or assignments and it provides accurate feedback. Customer support is also great as they respond quickly and solve issues without hassle. I believe adding it to our teaching and assessment activities would be very valuable and something educators could use regularly.

Cons

One issue I noticed was the relatively short time allotted for the trial which can be a downside of using it. If I take the time to read the terms and conditions carefully and then pick a plan that better fits my needs, that limitation usually doesn't become a real problem for me.

Clean design boosts productivity

Pros

What I like most is how user-friendly it is. Also the experience is always smooth and never glitchy. Plus it makes managing and finding information easy, with a clean design and helpful features that save time, improve workflows and boost productivity for both teams and individuals.

Cons

The only feature I'd love it to add is the ability to post job openings directly to multiple job boards. That would further speed up the hiring process and make the platform even more valuable for teams that handle recruitment by simplifying outreach and centralizing vacancy posting across sites.

Focus only on candidate responses

Pros

I used to rely on video interview software. It worked okay but I often felt our decisions were influenced by things that did not matter like how a candidate looked or where they were from. Those visual details seemed to bias our judgment which worried me. Video interviews were also more expensive and needed extra gear like cameras and mics which added unnecessary complexity. Switching to Truffle has made everything much simpler and the results have been great. It is a lot like being a judge on The Voice as you focus only on what the candidate says, not how they look. Also it is very easy to use and reasonably priced. Candidates also told me they found the process simple and appreciated not having to be on video. We plan to keep using it for all our recruiting, across different roles and teams.

Cons

To be honest I have no complaints at this time and only expect things to improve as new features are added. The founders really understand how to make technology work for small businesses and we truly appreciate that.
