Distro
AI Screening

Interviews before your first phone call.

Distro's AI conducts structured video screening interviews with every shortlisted candidate — automatically. You watch the best ones. Or just read the summary.

Phone screens take hours you don't have.

Screening calls are expensive

A 30-minute phone screen with 10 candidates is 5 hours of calendar time — before a single hiring decision is made. At scale, this is unsustainable.

Unstructured screens produce inconsistent data

When different people run different phone screens, you end up comparing apples to oranges. Great candidates get rejected; mediocre ones slip through.

Scheduling is a coordination nightmare

The back-and-forth of booking screening calls delays your pipeline by days — and gives candidates time to accept competing offers.

How It Works

Structured screening, no scheduling required

01

Set your screening questions

Distro generates role-specific questions automatically, or you can customize them. Define what a strong answer looks like and let the AI use that as its scoring rubric.

02

Candidates record on their schedule

Each candidate receives a link to record their video responses asynchronously — at any time, in any time zone. No scheduling required. No waiting on you.

03

AI scores and summarizes every response

The AI evaluates each answer for content quality, communication clarity, and role fit. You receive a ranked list with full summaries. Watch any recording in full — or just act on the scores.

Built for every stage of growth

High-Volume Hiring

Screen 50 candidates in the time it took to schedule 5 calls.

When you're filling multiple roles simultaneously, async screening is the only scalable path to a quality shortlist.

Remote & Global Teams

Screen across time zones without the coordination tax.

Candidates in Singapore, Berlin, and Chicago all get screened on the same timeline — without anyone burning their evening on a call.

Lean Recruiting Teams

One recruiter can manage what used to take three.

When Distro handles the screening volume, your team focuses on the humans who made the shortlist — not the hundreds who didn't.

"

We were doing 15 phone screens a week per recruiter. Now Distro handles the initial screen, and we only get on calls with people we're genuinely excited about. The quality of our conversations has completely changed.
