"I would like to take a few moments to discuss my experience with the Taluate platform over the past 8 years.
Over time, more than 1k candidates have completed the process with me.
Each year, my fallout ratio remains under 2% when candidates complete the assessment. Clients often request a full report before extending an offer, valuing the insights provided.
The information is very important to candidates and clients, and their comments tell a story.
In closing, this is an important tool in the hiring process.
THANK you, Taluate."
"Before we started using Taluate, our reference checking process felt outdated. In the fast-paced hospitality industry, especially when recruiting managers who control operations, money, and staff, we needed a leg up.
Taluate has been a game-changer. The platform's technology is incredibly efficient. The structured forms ensure we get actionable, relevant data on a candidate's leadership style, financial oversight, and compliance history, as well as metrics that are non-negotiable for our clients' positions.
It has saved us a great deal of administration time by simplifying the reference check process.
If you are a recruiting company operating in a high-volume, high-stakes sector like hospitality, Taluate is a must-have. It elevates the hiring process and has given us a competitive edge."

Taluate works alongside your existing ATS—no integration required. Recruiters simply attach the Taluate report to candidate profiles in your ATS.
The reports are built to be decision tools, not fluff. They're structured around competencies that matter for the role, and designed to be compared across candidates. Hiring managers use them because they make decisions easier, not harder.
Yes. Company+ plan includes custom competency indexes. You can tailor assessments to match your organization's specific hiring criteria. (Core THCI™ Indexes are included in all plans.)
Recruiters using Taluate see clearer submissions, faster decisions, and fewer late-stage fallouts.
By backing recruiter judgment with structured, competency-based evidence, candidates are easier for hiring managers to evaluate and trust. In practice, this leads to higher response rates, more confident approvals, and significantly fewer dropouts — even late in the process.
ROI varies by company, company type, and volume — which is why we provide an interactive ROI calculator
You can input details from your own workflow to see how reduced fallouts, faster reference cycles, and stronger submissions can translate into real financial impact in your business.
Yes — without forcing you into a rigid way of working.
Taluate brings structure to the parts of the process where consistency matters most, such as competency-based evaluations and reference collection, while leaving recruiters in control of how they work day to day.
For independent recruiters and agencies, this means clearer, more consistent submissions that build client trust and reduce rework — without sacrificing flexibility. For internal HR/TA teams, it provides a shared standard that supports better alignment and decision-making.
The result is a process that’s standardized where it helps, and flexible where it counts.
Company+ is available for $49.99 per month, or just $41.49 per month, per seat (2 seat minimum), when billed annually. Use our interactive calculator to determine your potential ROI. Takes less than 60 seconds.
Paid seats are only required for the Account Owner, Recruiters/Managers and Administrators using the system. Candidates and Employees are free and unlimited.
For a limited time, you can also lock in exclusive lifetime pricing on Company+ plans. Pricing is simple, transparent, and not tied to per-check or per-candidate fees. (limited to the first 500), guaranteed for life.
The difference comes down to how broadly you plan to use Taluate.
If you’re using Taluate primarily to assess candidates for hiring decisions — including client submissions or internal roles — an Agency plan is a great place to start and works well for many teams.
If you also want to extend assessments to existing employees — such as self, manager, or team-based evaluations — a Company plan is better suited. It includes unlimited employees and supports a wider range of internal assessment use cases.
Both plans use the same structured, competency-based approach. The choice depends on whether you’re focused only on candidate evaluation, or on including broader talent assessment across your organization.
Yes — when they’re done right.
Traditional reference checks are often inconsistent and time-consuming, which is why many recruiters skip them. Structured, competency-based references, especially when collected through Taluate, generate insights that hiring managers trust and actually use.
The result is clearer decisions, fewer surprises, and stronger confidence on both sides of the hire.
You can begin assessing candidates within minutes.
There’s no lengthy onboarding process and no steep learning curve. Taluate is designed to fit into how recruiters already work, without disruption.
THCI™ (Taluate Hiring Competency Index) is the framework behind how Taluate evaluates candidate capability.
It standardizes how competencies are assessed and referenced, creating consistent, decision-ready evidence that hiring managers can easily understand and compare. THCI™ helps ensure that evaluations focus on real capability — not just polished resumes or subjective impressions.
In most cases, you can’t mandate that independent contractors use a specific tool.
However, if your agency has a defined workflow or operational policy — such as requiring reference checks for all candidates — you can require that those steps be completed using Taluate as part of that process. In that scenario, Taluate isn’t a personal work tool; it’s the system your agency uses to meet a required standard.
If no such policy exists, you generally can’t require contractors to use Taluate, as that could imply control over how they perform their work. In those cases, Taluate can still be recommended as a best practice within your workflow.
In practice, many recruiters choose to use Taluate voluntarily once they see how it reduces fallouts, speeds up reference collection, and improves placement outcomes. Providing access also signals that your agency is invested in recruiter success — delivering measurable value to both the individual and the business.
