About
Knockri is an enterprise-grade AI interview platform designed to make hiring faster, fairer, and more data-driven. Trusted by private sector companies, public sector organizations (including the Government of Canada), and higher education institutions, Knockri replaces resume-heavy screening with structured behavioral video assessments that evaluate candidates on job-relevant skills. At the core of the platform is an Assessment Builder that allows recruiters to create smooth, personalized assessments quickly. These are paired with a Customizable Skills Framework — either Knockri's pre-mapped library or an organization's own taxonomy — ensuring assessments reflect what truly matters for each role. Knockri's AI then scores responses with transparency and explainability, enabling confident, defensible shortlisting decisions. The platform also supports Simulator-Based Training assessments for specialized environments like the Canadian Armed Forces, turning hours of simulation into instant, actionable feedback. Native integrations with major ATS and HCM platforms keep Knockri embedded seamlessly in existing hiring stacks. Results across Knockri's customer base speak for themselves: 90% reduction in time-to-hire, 80% improved retention, 25% increased workforce diversity, and over 5,000 recruiter hours saved. Use cases span enterprise hiring, campus recruitment, internal talent management, and leadership promotion. Knockri is built for HR teams, talent acquisition leaders, and DEI-focused organizations that want hiring decisions backed by science, not gut feeling.
