JobTalk AI is built around phone screening. When a job or applicant lands in your ATS, its voice agent calls within minutes, checks the do-not-call list, leaves voicemail, and follows up by text and email. It asks about role fit, location, pay range and availability, scores each answer, and hands recruiters a shortlist with a score, transcript and mood summary. Candidates who pass can pick an interview slot, and a recruiter can take over a live call with the context on screen. Pricing is a monthly credit pool spent across voice, SMS and email: Starter is $500 a month for $500 of credit at 10 cents a voice minute and 5 cents an SMS, and Growth and Business add bonus credit and lower rates. All plans include the 90 ATS and CRM integrations and 23 languages. Unused credit expires each month and a setup fee may apply, so it suits teams with steady volume.
