If you're evaluating an AI interview platform in 2026, Metantz and MAZ Assist both come up on the shortlist. They solve overlapping problems — screening candidates by voice instead of by static form — but they're built for very different buyers. This is a straight, no-fluff comparison so you can pick the right tool for your team on the first try.
What each product actually is
Metantz is a specialist AI interview platform. It sends candidates a link, runs a structured voice interview, and returns a scorecard. That's its entire surface area — and it does that one job well for high-volume hiring teams that already have an ATS.
MAZ Assist is a unified AI workforce platform. AI HR Voice interviews sit inside the same dashboard as AI Sales Voice, AI Sales Video (Sana), and AI Sales Chat — so the same assistant infrastructure that screens candidates also qualifies inbound leads, books meetings, and answers your website chat in 17+ languages.

Where MAZ Assist wins
- One platform, one bill. Small and mid-market teams rarely want to buy a dedicated interview tool and a sales chatbot and a voice qualifier. MAZ Assist bundles all four AI employees into a single dashboard with shared voice infrastructure and shared analytics.
- Truly multilingual out of the box. If you hire across India, the Gulf, LATAM, or SEA, MAZ Assist's ElevenLabs-tuned voices sound native in Hindi, Urdu, Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese and beyond — not machine-translated English.
- Ships in minutes, not weeks. Create a job, paste the description, share the /apply link — the AI interviewer is live in under 5 minutes. No ATS wiring required to start.
- Free calling included on annual plans. Every annual plan includes a free business phone number plus human and AI voice minutes. Extra dedicated numbers are $60/year — not per-seat licensing.
- Transparent pricing from $30/mo. No sales calls to see a number.
Where Metantz still makes sense
- Enterprise ATS integrations. If your org runs on Workday or Greenhouse and you need deep, certified integrations, Metantz has the enterprise sales motion to support that procurement path.
- Dedicated interview-team workflows. Very large recruiting teams with dozens of coordinators may prefer a tool whose UI is 100% interview-focused rather than a broader workforce dashboard.
Pricing math for a real hiring team
Consider a growing team hiring 25 roles a year with ~40 applicants per role — roughly 1,000 screening interviews annually. On MAZ Assist's Growth annual plan (billed at 10 months for 12), that workload sits comfortably inside the included AI voice minutes and adds the free business phone number plus the entire sales stack for the same price. Metantz doesn't publish public pricing, but enterprise AI interview platforms typically start in the low-to-mid four figures per month once seats and interview volume are factored in.
Which one should you pick?
Pick Metantz if AI interviewing is your only need, you already have an enterprise ATS, and you can absorb enterprise pricing and procurement cycles.
Pick MAZ Assist if you want AI hiring plus AI sales voice, video and chat inside one platform, if you hire or sell across languages, if you need a public /apply link that just works, and if you'd rather see pricing on the pricing page than book a sales call.
