Alternatives
Looking for a Screenable alternative? SwiftShortlist is a standalone AI CV screening tool with transparent scoring, bulk CV upload, and a permanent free plan. Here is what to look for in any alternative and how SwiftShortlist compares.
Avoid black-box scores. Look for skills, experience, seniority, and education sub-scores so you can see what drove the ranking.
Strengths, gaps, and a short explanation turn a score into an actionable brief for the interview.
Scoring focused on skills and experience — not proxies like names or universities. Human override on every decision.
No weeks of configuration or ATS integration. Should work day one: create a job, upload CVs, get results.
Free tier to test on real CVs. Flat pricing that does not punish scale.
3 jobs, 50 CVs per job. No credit card. Test on your own real CVs before paying anything.
Unlimited jobs and CVs. No per-CV or per-seat surprise pricing.
Skills, experience, seniority, education breakdown plus strengths, gaps, and interview notes.
Standalone. Create a job, upload CVs, done. Works alongside any ATS via CSV export.
Drop 100 PDFs at once. Analysed in parallel — 100 CVs takes the same time as 10.
AI ranks and explains; you decide. Override any score.
