Google Forms collects the answers. Eneya reads all of them.

Write your questions once and tie each one to a competency. Candidates answer in writing, on their own time, with no video to record or sit through. Every set comes back scored against those competencies with the working shown, so the shortlist exists before you open your calendar. Everyone writes with an assistant now, so each report also tells you whether the answers name anything you could actually check.

How it works

Set it up once, use it for every candidate

About ten minutes to build a questionnaire, reused for everyone applying to the role. The first scored report can be in front of you the same day.

1

Build a questionnaire

Write your questions once and map each one to the competencies you're hiring for.

2

Send a private link

Each candidate gets a unique link and answers in writing, on any device, on their own time. No video to record.

3

Read the report, decide

A breakdown by competency for every answer, with the working shown. The decision stays with you.

Use cases

Four places a written screen does what a call cannot

The same questionnaire in all of them. What changes is who you send it to, and what you were going to do instead.

High-volume roles

Two hundred applications, time for twenty calls

Nobody reads two hundred CVs properly. What happens instead is a fast pass and a shortlist that owes as much to formatting as to experience.

Send the questionnaire to all of them. Candidate number one hundred and eighty answers the same questions as candidate number three, and your calls go to the top of a list you can defend.

How this works at volume

Engineering hiring

Find out before the interview, not ten minutes into it

The CV read well, the intro call was fine, and ten minutes into the technical round everyone already knows how this ends. There are still fifty minutes on the invite.

Ask the technical questions in writing first. You read a scored report, and your senior engineers get booked only for the people whose answers earned the hour.

How this works for engineering roles

Agencies and outstaffing

Know what you are sending before your client sees it

A weak submission costs more than the placement. The client remembers it on the next three.

Screen in writing before the candidate goes out. The report shows where the person is strong, where the answer went thin, and what to ask if you want to check.

How this works for agencies

Writing-heavy roles

If the job is writing, screen by writing

Support replies, outreach, specs, briefs. Some roles are writing with a job title on top, and a video call measures how well someone talks instead.

Written answers are the work itself. You read what a real reply from this person looks like before you spend an hour with them.

How this works for writing roles

Every new account starts with a demo questionnaire and five candidates already in it. Open one report and see what the format gives you before you send anything to a real person.

Start with the role you are hiring for now

A new account opens with a filled-in example questionnaire and five answered candidates, so you can read a real report before writing a single question of your own.

Features

Narrow on purpose

Eneya covers one step: the written screen between an application and an interview. It is not an ATS and is not trying to become one.

Your questions, your competencies

Write the questions that matter for the role and tie each one to a competency. There is no template library to pick from, because nobody knows the role better than you do.

Role context the candidate never sees

Alongside the questions you write a short brief: the team, the product, what the role involves, how senior it is. Candidates never see it. The model reads it before scoring, so an answer is judged against your role rather than a generic standard.

A private link per candidate

Each candidate gets their own link and starts answering straight away, in writing, on any device. No account to create, no interview slot to book, nothing to install.

See who's answered at a glance

A list of who you invited, who replied, and who you've reviewed. Not a hiring pipeline, just the part you'd otherwise keep in a spreadsheet.

A score you can check, not a black box

The model reads the answers, but it does not set the score. The final number is computed by a fixed rule in our code from the model's per-answer assessments, and the report shows the working question by question. The score is a starting point. The decision is yours.

Every report says whether there is something to verify

Next to the score, each report carries an authenticity reading: High when the answers name companies, products or projects with details tied to them, Medium when nothing named could be checked. Under it, the exact fragments that gave the reading, and any two answers that disagree with each other as questions for the call. It is about the text, never a verdict on the person, and Eneya does not claim to know who or what typed it. No webcam, no screen recording, no proctoring.

What you get

Nobody falls through the cracks

An interview is the most expensive slot in your week, and the shortlist that fills it is usually built by skimming. Eneya moves the reading to the step before.

Every candidate actually read

Candidate number one hundred and eighty gets the same attention as candidate number three. Not a faster skim, a full read of every set of answers.

Interview time spent on real candidates

Every conversation you book is with someone whose answers you've already read, not someone you're meeting to find out if meeting them was worth it.

The same bar for every candidate

Same questions, same competencies, same scoring rule, every time. No two candidates judged on a different afternoon.

Better questions when you do meet

The report shows where a candidate was strong and where they were thin, so the conversation picks up where the questionnaire left off.

Pricing

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is Eneya, exactly?

A questionnaire tool for the step before the interview. You write questions for a role, send each candidate a private link, and they answer in writing. Eneya scores every answer against the competencies you defined and hands you a report. That's the whole product.

Is this an ATS?

No, and it's not trying to become one. Eneya covers one step. Whatever you use to track applications, you keep using it.

We already screen with a Google Form. What changes?

Nothing on the candidate's side. They still get a link, still type their answers, still do it whenever suits them. What changes is what happens after they hit submit. A form hands you two hundred rows of text, and the honest truth is that row one hundred and eighty never gets read as carefully as row three. Eneya scores every set against the competencies you wrote the questions for, shows the working behind each score, and tells you whether the answers name anything you could actually check. You also see who answered and who you have already reviewed. And candidate answers are deleted automatically at the end of the process, instead of living in a spreadsheet on your Drive for the next four years. The longer version, including where a form builder or an ATS would serve you better, is on the Google Forms alternative page.

Why written answers instead of a video interview?

Because writing is lighter on everyone. Candidates answer on any device without booking a slot or recording themselves, so more of them actually finish. You read a report in minutes instead of watching half an hour of video. And a written answer leaves something a call does not: the specifics are on the page, in the candidate's own words, and they are still there when you compare two people a week later.

What kinds of roles is it for?

Any role where you'd otherwise find out on the call. Sales, support, operations, finance, engineering. You write the questions, so the questionnaire is exactly as specific as the role needs.

What happens to candidate data?

Candidate answers and evaluation reports are kept only for a limited period tied to your hiring process, and deleted automatically afterward, whether or not a decision was made. Full details, including exact timeframes, are in our Privacy Policy.

Is Eneya GDPR-compliant?

Eneya runs on EU infrastructure in Frankfurt and keeps candidate data only as long as your hiring process needs it, with automatic deletion after that. A Data Processing Agreement under Art. 28 GDPR is published and forms part of our Terms, including the full list of subprocessors, so there is nothing to negotiate before you start.

Does the AI decide who gets hired?

No. It scores written answers against the competencies you defined and shows you the breakdown. Every hiring decision is made by a person. Eneya doesn't interview anyone and doesn't make calls on its own.

How is the score calculated?

The model evaluates each answer against your competencies and reports what it found. The final score is then computed from those assessments by a fixed rule in our code, not by the model itself, and every report shows the breakdown, so you can always see where a number came from. Each stored evaluation also keeps the exact version of the rule it was scored with.

Can candidates just answer with AI?

Many will, and that is not the problem. A candidate writing with an assistant from their own notes produces true answers in their own words, and no tool can tell that text from typed text. What Eneya checks instead is whether the answers give you anything to verify: a named company, product or project with details that only make sense there. A set with nothing named gets a Medium reading and a plain suggestion to ask which company it was. Answers that disagree with each other become questions for the call. Time per question and pasted text are shown as facts about how the form was filled in, and they do not affect the score, the verdict or the reading.

Do candidates need to create an account?

No. Each candidate gets a private link and answers directly. No account, no download, nothing to install.
