Interviews are where the information that decides a hire actually gets said — and where most of it gets lost. Notes are typed one-handed mid-conversation, written up hours later from memory, or never written up at all. By the time a debrief happens, the team is comparing recollections rather than evidence. Metaview joins your interviews, screens, intakes, and debriefs, captures what was said, and writes the notes for you — structured the way your team already works.

Elyse shows you how to use Notes.

​
What this changes

Interviewers stay in the conversation

No more splitting attention between the candidate and a notes doc. Ask better follow-ups, and let the write-up happen on its own.

Decisions rest on what was said

Every line in your notes links back to the moment in the transcript it came from, so a debrief can check the evidence instead of debating memories.

Notes look the same every time

A template fixes the structure of the write-up, not the conversation — consistent notes without anyone interviewing from a script.
Because notes arrive within minutes and in a consistent shape, the work that usually stalls after an interview moves immediately: a screen summary reaches the hiring manager the same hour, a scorecard gets filled while the call is fresh, and a debrief starts from a shared written record.

​
Built for hiring conversations

Plenty of tools will transcribe a meeting. Metaview is built specifically around hiring and talent conversations, and the features are where that shows:
  • Templates that match your process. Build a template from your scorecard, your intake questions, or your debrief framework, and Metaview fills it in from the conversation — in whatever order the conversation actually happened. See Templates.
  • It knows who the candidate is. Metaview distinguishes interviewers from candidates, which is what makes question-and-answer notes, TLDRs, and candidate-facing pronoun and identifier controls possible. See Participants.
  • Phone calls, not just video. High-volume screens often happen over the phone. Metaview captures those too. See Phone calls.
  • Evidence you can forward, not just summarize. Cut a thirty-second snippet of a candidate’s answer and send it to the hiring manager, so they judge fit from the answer itself rather than from your write-up of it.
  • It writes back to your ATS. Notes and scorecards go to the candidate’s record, so your system of record stays the system of record. See Share and export.
  • Hiring-specific guardrails. Notes describe what was said rather than judging the person, and privacy controls are built around candidate data. See AI best practices.
None of that makes it interview-only. Because you control the template, plenty of teams also point Metaview at role intakes, hiring manager syncs, reference checks, and meetings well outside recruiting — see Can I use the Notetaker for anything other than interviews?

The lifecycle of a captured call

1

Get Metaview into the call

Have it join automatically from your calendar or ATS, invite it manually per call, drop it into a call already underway, dial through it for phone screens, or upload a recording after the fact.See Capturing calls.
2

The call happens

Metaview appears as a clearly named participant that the host admits and can remove at any time. Anyone on the call can see it is there.See During the call.
3

Your notes arrive

Metaview transcribes the conversation and writes your notes from it, usually within about five minutes of the call ending. Notes are fully editable, and every section links back to the transcript.See Working with your notes.
4

Share, export, and reuse

Send notes to your ATS, share the conversation with colleagues or externally, group calls into collections, or pull a snippet or one-paragraph summary out for a hiring manager.See Share and export.
