Question 1

What’s free, and do I need a card?

Accepted Answer

Your first job is free, and so is ranking your first five applicants. You don’t need a card to sign up, and there’s no subscription. After the first five, new applicants are saved. When you buy credits, they’re all ranked straight away.

Question 2

Can the bill get out of hand?

Accepted Answer

No. You choose how many credits to buy before anyone applies, and that’s the most you can spend. A job costs $99 and each applicant costs $1 to rank. When your credits run out, new applicants are saved and nothing more is charged until you top up. Credits never expire. Payments go through Stripe. See the pricing page for the details.

Question 3

Do I pay for applicants who clearly don’t fit?

Accepted Answer

Yes, every applicant uses a credit, because the $1 pays for reading and ranking them against your role. But you can cut down how many poor fits apply: we help you write skill questions, including short-answer ones, that take real effort. People who didn’t read the ad tend not to bother, so you pay for fewer of them.

Question 4

Do I pay anything when I’m not hiring?

Accepted Answer

No. There’s no monthly fee and nothing to cancel, so a month with no hiring costs nothing. Credits never expire. If a role is live and you want to stop new applicants being ranked, pause or close it. No contracts and no per-seat fees.

Question 5

Will the AI throw out good people?

Accepted Answer

No. AI helps, you decide. Nobody is rejected automatically. You see every applicant, their score and the reasons behind it, and you choose who to talk to. A lower score isn’t a no. It shows you where to start, not who to hire.

Question 6

How does Workcraft rank applicants?

Accepted Answer

We score each applicant from 0 to 100 against the criteria you set for the role, using their resume and their answers to your questions. Before scoring, we remove their name, photo, gender, age, address, nationality and the names of the schools they went to. That way the score reflects what they’ve done, not who they are or where they studied, and it helps reduce bias the AI may have picked up from its training data. You can still see everything on their application. For each person, you can see how they scored against each of the criteria you set, so you can check the score for yourself.

Question 7

Most applications are written with ChatGPT now. Does this help?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A polished resume doesn’t score well on its own. Workcraft looks for evidence of what someone actually did, so vague claims settle at their real level. Each job also asks its own short questions, which take real effort to answer and are hard to fake with a generic resume.

Question 8

What kind of roles is it for?

Accepted Answer

Roles that get a lot of applicants, usually 20 or more, where sorting through them eats your time: coordinators, assistants, account managers, designers, marketers and similar. You can use it for some roles and not others. It’s not the right fit for senior or very specialist roles where only a handful of people apply, or where you need someone to go out and find candidates.

Question 9

Do you find applicants for me?

Accepted Answer

No, we’re not a job board and we don’t post for you. Each job gets its own apply page, and you share the link wherever you already find people: LinkedIn, job boards that accept a link, your website, Facebook groups, WhatsApp or community spaces. Workcraft takes over once applications start coming in.

Question 10

I don’t have HR and I’ve never hired properly. Will I manage?

Accepted Answer

Yes. That’s who it’s built for. Workcraft takes you through each step, from what the role needs and a fair salary to the shortlist and interviews, using hiring best practices. You don’t need to know how to hire before you start.

Question 11

I trust my gut in interviews. Does Workcraft take that over?

Accepted Answer

No. The interviews and the final decision are yours. Workcraft gets you to the right people to talk to, and gives you and your team the same feedback form after each interview, so you’re comparing people on the same things rather than memory.

Question 12

How long does setup take, and who needs to be involved?

Accepted Answer

About 10 minutes, and you can do it yourself. There’s nothing to install and no IT needed. To bring in a partner or manager, invite them with one click and they get a link to join. There are no per-seat fees, so adding people costs nothing. When you’re ready, connect your Google or Microsoft calendar so candidates can book interviews in one click.

Question 13

Where is my data kept?

Accepted Answer

On secure servers in the EU, with strong privacy controls. See our privacy policy for the details.
