The product is the decision record

HireForge helps a panel explain why evidence supports a criterion, where it does not, and what still needs a human follow-up.

Questions hiring teams ask

Does HireForge automatically reject or rank candidates?

No. It organizes evidence against the scorecard your team approves. Reviewers confirm the evidence and make the decision.

What is an evidence action?

One action is one resume evidence review or one interview transcript analysis. Editing and confirming a scorecard does not consume another action.

Can we start with one role?

Yes. The $129 Role Pack includes one role, 75 evidence actions, and 45 days of access with no subscription.

How is candidate data handled?

Workspaces are private to authenticated users. The standard DPA covers every business plan; Enterprise agreements can add tailored retention, SSO, and SLA requirements.
