About Greenhouse
Greenhouse is an end-to-end applicant tracking system (ATS) and hiring platform designed to streamline every step of the hiring process—from sourcing and interviewing to onboarding. It helps teams move fast and hire with confidence by combining structured hiring practices with AI-powered tools, such as Greenhouse Notetaker that automatically records and transcribes interviews, and Voice AI for conversational recruiting.
What problem does Greenhouse solve?
Traditional hiring is often messy, biased, and slow. Greenhouse replaces manual processes with automation, structured interview kits, and scorecards, ensuring fair and repeatable hiring practices. It reduces time-to-hire significantly—for example, Ocado Group cut its time-to-hire by nearly 30%.
Who is Greenhouse for?
Greenhouse is ideal for growing companies that need to establish a consistent hiring process, as well as larger organizations managing complex hiring across multiple teams, regions, or business units. It’s not suitable for very small teams with basic needs—those might find it overwhelming for a single hiring manager.
