Purpose-built for teams under 50.
Workable is a solid, general-purpose ATS with job board distribution and basic collaboration tools. But it was designed for every company — which means it's optimised for none. Rothr is designed specifically for fast-moving teams under 50 people, with AI doing the heavy lifting from day one.
Workable gives you a pipeline. Rothr gives you answers.
Workable does a good job of collecting applications and moving candidates through stages. But it stops there. You still need to screen every CV manually, schedule interviews yourself, take your own notes, and make sense of it all without data to back you up.
Rothr automates the parts that drain your time — screening, scheduling, and note-taking — and gives you structured scores so you spend time only on people who actually fit.
Less admin. Better decisions. Faster hires.
What Rothr does that Workable doesn't.
AI screening that actually works
Workable offers basic AI job descriptions and some candidate matching, but you're still reviewing CVs manually. Rothr's AI screens every applicant against your defined competencies and delivers a ranked shortlist — no reading required.
Async AI video interviews
Workable doesn't include async video interviews. Rothr sends candidates a structured AI-led video interview that scores itself — so you see quality signals before committing a single hour of your calendar.
Live interview note-taker included
Workable has no native note-taker. Rothr joins your Zoom or Meet call, transcribes both speakers in real time, and delivers a structured summary in under 5 minutes. Nothing gets lost between the call and the debrief.
Structured scorecards on every interview
Workable lets interviewers leave freeform feedback. Rothr generates consistent scores across technical depth, communication, and problem-solving for every interview — AI or live. Compare candidates side by side, not gut feeling vs gut feeling.
Hiring teams love Rothr.
Real stories from teams who stopped doing hiring the hard way.
“We had 500 applications for one role. I was dreading it. I set up Rothr on a Tuesday evening and by Wednesday morning I had a shortlist of 12. The top three ended up being our final interview candidates.”
“What I love is the consistency. Before Rothr, every interviewer on our team was evaluating candidates differently. Now everyone's working from the same scores. Our debrief meetings went from 90 minutes of debate to 20 minutes of decision.”
“I pasted our job description and Rothr built the entire competency framework in under 30 seconds. Skills, scoring rubric, interview questions — all of it. That alone saved me half a day of work I was dreading.”
