How Willo turns video responses into evidence your team can review
Your team defines what matters, collects structured responses, and uses human-led AI to assess each response against the role criteria. Recruiters and hiring managers decide who stands out and who progresses.

FAQs
Clear answers on the interview format, the role of AI, candidate access, and how Willo fits your hiring workflow.
What is video interview software?
Video interview software lets employers conduct or collect candidate interviews via video. Willo focuses on structured asynchronous assessment, where candidates respond in their own time, and hiring teams review comparable evidence before deciding who progresses.
How does AI video interview software work?
After a candidate submits a response, Willo transcribes and summarizes it. Insights scores the response transcript against the employer’s Blueprint and shows supporting evidence for recruiters and hiring managers to review.
How is asynchronous video different from a live video interview?
A live video interview requires the candidate and interviewer to attend at the same time. With asynchronous video, your team sets the questions once, and candidates record responses within the assessment window, without coordinating individual calls.
Does Willo use an autonomous AI interviewer?
No. Candidates answer structured questions created by the employer. Willo uses AI after the response is submitted to prepare evidence for human review rather than conducting a dynamic interview.
What does Willo’s AI evaluate?
Willo Insights processes the text transcript of a candidate’s video or audio response against the employer-defined Blueprint. It does not evaluate appearance, facial characteristics, biometrics, or voice patterns.
Who decides whether a candidate progresses?
The hiring team does. Recruiters and hiring managers can review the transcript, summary, Blueprint score, supporting evidence, and original recording before deciding whether to progress.
How are responses that need authenticity review handled?
Authenticity signals provide additional context and can surface a response for closer review. A person considers that context alongside the candidate’s original answer and other available evidence.
Do candidates need to create an account or download an app?
No. Candidates open the assessment in their browser and can respond anywhere, on any device. They can practice first and switch devices without losing their progress.
What response formats can the assessment include?
An assessment can combine video, audio, text, multiple-choice questions, checkboxes, and file uploads. Your team chooses the format that best fits each question and the evidence needed for the role.
Does Willo integrate with our ATS?
Willo has 50+ native ATS integrations. Depending on your system, Willo can operate as a stage in the existing workflow, trigger invitations, and return candidate response information to the candidate record.
