July 21, 2026 · 2 min read
Short answer: Several recruiting platforms now ship MCP servers so you can work from ChatGPT or Claude. They differ mainly in what they do best: RightMatch runs the full hiring workflow including AI interviews, SeekOut is strongest at sourcing and talent search, and Recruit41 focuses on bringing its hiring platform into Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude. Pick based on the job you need done inside the assistant.
The short version
| Best known for | Inside the assistant | |
|---|---|---|
| RightMatch | AI screening, async video interviews, and an ATS | Send interviews, score resumes, rank candidates, draft JDs, search your pipeline |
| SeekOut | Talent sourcing and candidate search | Discover and surface candidates |
| Recruit41 | Bringing its hiring platform into Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude | Run its hiring workflows from the assistant |

How to choose
If your bottleneck is evaluating candidates, you want the assistant to actually screen and interview, not just find people. RightMatch runs async AI video interviews and rubric-based scoring with cited evidence, and writes the results back to your ATS. That is the wedge: it is the platform that both runs the interviews and works inside ChatGPT and Claude.
If your bottleneck is finding candidates, a sourcing-first tool like SeekOut may fit better for top-of-funnel discovery.
If you are standardizing on Microsoft Copilot or want a hiring platform surfaced across assistants, evaluate Recruit41 alongside RightMatch.
Where RightMatch is differentiated
- Full workflow behind the MCP layer: screening, async video interviews, an AI-native ATS, fraud detection, and scorecards, not a single function.
- Works across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot from one server.
- Grounded and defensible: cited evidence per score, audit-logged AI decisions, SOC 2 Type II, built for the EU AI Act high-risk requirements and NYC Local Law 144.
- Syncs with 27 ATS platforms, so assistant-driven work reaches your system of record.
