Agentic recruiting platform (notetaker, sourcing, application review) with a free plan, published sourcing prices and a 16-tool Anthropic-verified MCP connector; no public developer API was found and it is sourcing-adjacent rather than a people-search API.

Best for

Recruiting teams using Ashby, Greenhouse or Lever that want interview notes plus AI sourcing in one UI

Overview

Metaview started as an AI notetaker for recruiters and now sells an agentic recruiting platform with sourcing, application review and notes. We found no public developer API; one review states there is none, and the pricing page does not mention API or MCP. The programmatic surface is an MCP connector (mcp.metaview.ai/mcp, added to Claude in March 2026 and marked Anthropic verified) with 16 tools covering conversation search, charts, reports and outreach sequences. The platform integrates with Ashby, Greenhouse, Lever, Gem and SmartRecruiters.

Sourcing pricing is published: Free (first 100 profiles), Pro $100 per user for 200 profiles a month, Max $300 for unlimited profiles and Enterprise custom; the full platform is custom priced and third-party sources cite $2,000-$15,000 integration costs and a different Pro price for AI Notes. It is scored as a UI product on available evidence, not skipped. Documentation could not be assessed beyond the connector listing and search results; G2 returned 403 so the reported 4.8/5 from 132 reviews is unconfirmed. No status page, SLA or incident history was found.

How this score is derived

The APIbenchmarks Index is a weighted sum of four dimensions, each scored on an absolute 0–100 reference scale. See the methodology for every mapping.

What developers say

G2 reported 4.8/5 (132 reviews), unconfirmed

A third-party source reports a high G2 rating but G2 could not be read directly; the same review notes there is no public developer API.

“One review states Metaview does not offer a public API for developers, though it has ATS integrations (paraphrased, may predate the MCP).”
