Live voice & video interviews
A real conversation, not a scripted form.
Aria listens, responds, and keeps each exchange moving naturally.
- Live two-way audio: candidates speak instead of typing through fields
- Natural turn-taking: each response flows into the next question

A near-instant response loop keeps every exchange fluid and focused.
- Fast turn-taking: answers begin without awkward dead air
- Live processing: speech is understood as the candidate talks
Result: a conversation that feels present, not processed.
Handles interruptions
Natural overlap is part of the conversation. Aria recognizes when a candidate jumps in and adjusts without losing context.
