Hirex: a strong Workable alternative for teams that want AI built in
Hirex is a flexible and affordable all-in-one recruiting platform.
Workable is a well known small-business and lower-mid-market ATS, known for a fast setup and broad job-board reach, and it has recently expanded into a wider HR platform with HRIS, onboarding and payroll. Its native video interviewing is a paid add-on and one-way video answers are not scored by AI. Hirex includes AI CV scoring and recorded video interview scoring by default.
Quick verdict
Choose Hirex if you want graded AI CV scoring, recorded video interview scoring and native sourcing included by default, with flat pricing that does not climb as you post more jobs or turn on AI.
Choose Workable if you want the fastest possible time-to-launch, very broad job-board reach, or a single vendor for hiring plus core HR and payroll.
Where Hirex pulls further ahead
Hirex scores each CV against your criteria with a breakdown and scores recorded video interview answers automatically. Workable's Screening Assistant gives a match score, but its video interviewing is a paid add-on and one-way answers are not AI-scored. Hirex also includes AI LinkedIn sourcing and a dedicated Chrome extension in the core product.
Where Workable still makes sense
Workable is hard to beat on speed to launch and job-board reach, and its move into HRIS, onboarding and payroll means smaller teams can run hiring and core HR from one vendor. If breadth of HR features and fast setup matter more than depth of AI hiring tools, Workable is a reasonable choice.
Pricing and total cost
Workable is priced in tiers, with native video interviewing sold as an add-on. Hirex keeps pricing flat and transparent with unlimited users and AI features, including video interview scoring, included by default. Public pricing changes often, so confirm current figures with each vendor before deciding. Competitor details last reviewed July 2026.
