Pymetrics is a talent assessment and matching platform (now part of Harver) that replaces resume-based screening with neuroscience-based gamified exercises and audited AI. Candidates play a series of short games designed to measure cognitive and emotional traits such as risk tolerance, attention, and memory, and the platform's algorithms match these traits against the profile of successful employees in a given role. Pymetrics also ships an internal bias-auditing tool that checks its own matching algorithms for discriminatory patterns across gender and ethnicity, and it supports accessibility accommodations (e.g., adjusted game versions for color-blind candidates or those with ADHD/learning disabilities) to help employers meet fair-hiring standards such as ADEA compliance. The platform serves early-career and campus hiring, high-volume hourly recruitment, professional hiring, and internal career/succession planning, and integrates with major applicant tracking systems including Workable, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle Taleo Cloud, SmartRecruiters, Oleeo, PageUp, and workflow tools like Tray.io.

Key Features

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Reduces reliance on resumes and subjective screening by using gamified, trait-based assessments
  • Built-in AI bias-auditing tool helps flag discriminatory patterns in the matching algorithm
  • Broad ATS integration coverage (Workable, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle Taleo, SmartRecruiters, Oleeo, PageUp) simplifies rollout into existing recruiting stacks
  • Accessibility accommodations for candidates with color-blindness, ADHD, or learning disabilities support more inclusive assessment

Cons

  • Pricing is not published and starts around $10,000/year, putting it out of reach for small businesses and solo recruiters
  • Game-based assessment methodology may feel unfamiliar to candidates and has drawn some criticism over score accuracy in third-party reviews
  • Requires custom sales engagement for pricing and setup rather than transparent self-serve onboarding
