Frequently Asked Questions

Aecho Recruiter is an AI-powered recruitment platform that uses voice analysis to evaluate candidates across technical abilities, soft skills, and cultural fit. It streamlines the hiring process from job creation to final selection, dramatically reducing time-to-hire and cost-per-hire while improving selection quality.

Our technology analyzes voice acoustics—tone variations, pitch, rhythm, and other non-verbal patterns—to identify correlations with specific traits and abilities. The system evaluates aspects like communication style, emotional intelligence, and cognitive processing that traditional assessments often miss. Importantly, we don't analyze the content of answers, only the acoustic patterns.

Aecho evaluates candidates on professional competencies (leadership, problem-solving, communication), work style (collaborative vs. independent), personality traits (openness, resilience, adaptability), career growth orientation, stress management, and cultural fit—all presented as a comprehensive Job Match Score.

No special equipment is needed. Candidates can complete interviews using any computer or mobile device with a microphone. Our system is designed to compensate for different audio quality levels, ensuring consistent analysis regardless of the device used.

Implementation typically takes 1-2 business days and includes creating customized job profiles, configuring assessment parameters, setting up user accounts, and optional integration with your existing ATS or HRIS. Our team provides full support throughout the process, including training for your recruitment team.

Yes, Aecho Recruiter integrates with most major Applicant Tracking Systems and HR platforms through our API. We offer standard integrations for systems like Workday, Taleo, Greenhouse, and Lever, with custom integration options available for other platforms.

Aecho maintains strict data security protocols that comply with SOC 2, GDPR, and other industry standards. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with regular security audits. We maintain limited data retention policies and provide comprehensive tools for data management in compliance with privacy regulations.

Aecho uses a per-hire pricing model with volume-based tiers: small companies (under 500 hires/year) at $600/hire, mid-sized (500-5,000 hires/year) at $500/hire, and large enterprises (5,000+ hires/year) at $400/hire. Custom pricing is available for organizations with unique requirements.

Aecho's analysis works across all languages as it focuses on acoustic features rather than linguistic content. The system evaluates universal speech patterns like rhythm, tone, and modulation that remain consistent regardless of the language spoken, making it effective for global hiring needs.

While Aecho works across various industries, it's particularly effective for roles where soft skills, communication, and cultural fit significantly impact success—such as leadership, sales, customer service, and collaborative technical positions. The platform allows customization of evaluation criteria for specific industry requirements.

Organizations using Aecho typically report: 85-95% reduction in time-to-hire (from weeks to days), 75-90% decrease in recruitment costs, 60-70% reduction in new hire turnover, and significant improvements in employee performance ratings and team satisfaction scores.
