What it does

Ashby is a recruiting platform that combines an applicant tracking system, a sourcing CRM, scheduling, and analytics in one product. Recruiters use its AI Notetaker to transcribe interviews and pull out key points automatically, and an Application Review feature scores and ranks incoming applicants so recruiters see the strongest first. The CRM side uses AI to help personalize outreach to past candidates worth a second look. Admins set permissions and workflow rules from a central settings area, and the platform is SOC 2 compliant. It is made by Ashby, integrates with systems like ADP Workforce Now for HR data, and counts fast-growing tech companies such as Notion, Shopify, and Zapier among its customers.

Where it can help

This fits a recruiting team at a growing tech or tech-adjacent company that wants deep reporting alongside its day-to-day hiring tools, once the company has a real recruiting operations team rather than one person hiring occasionally. A practical start is the Foundations plan, which recent pricing puts near three to four hundred dollars a month for a smaller team; larger Plus and Enterprise tiers are quote-based, so confirm current numbers with sales before budgeting. Past a certain scale, some buyers move up to a larger enterprise suite instead. One thing to check is how well its analytics match your existing reporting habits, since teams switching from a simpler tool sometimes find Ashby's data model takes real time to learn.

How the number is calculated

The score converts the baseline ELO rating onto the TriVista scale. The headline badge rounds to a whole number. Scores are not silently clipped or capped.

TriVista Score = 50 + (ELO − 1350) / 6

Before you choose
  • Customer feedback is not yet strong enough to change the starting rating.
  • The tool has a middle-of-the-scale starting rating. A tied order does not show a measured difference.
  • Check the current price before you decide.
  • We recorded rollout time, how it runs, and when it does not fit.
How company details affect the score
