Ashby is analytics-heavy, and analytics on empty feedback fields tell you nothing. Typally puts your words into Ashby the moment you release the key, in whichever field you left the cursor.
We make Typally, so treat this as a vendor's guide. Where Ashby has a built-in option we say so, including when it is the better choice.None. Structured feedback fields are typed.
A hiring system built on data still depends on humans writing the qualitative half. Ratings without written evidence produce dashboards that look rigorous and are not.
In practice people use it for: Structured interview feedback, candidate notes, debrief summaries, and job description drafts.
Typally runs in the background and types into whatever window has focus, so there is nothing to install inside Ashby:
Windows or macOS, then sign in. No card for the free tier.
Put the cursor in the field you are about to fill — Ashby decides where the text lands, not Typally.
Hold, talk, release. Long passages are fine.
Interview feedback is personal data about an identifiable candidate. Third-party transcription is an extra processor to account for.
Typally types into Ashby's structured feedback fields, so the sentence of evidence under each rating costs about eight seconds instead of a minute. That is the difference between hiring data you can audit and a dashboard of unexplained numbers. Bear in mind candidate notes are personal data — audio is transcribed by a third-party service before it becomes text.
A hiring team requires one line of evidence per rating, spoken rather than typed. Six months later they can actually audit which interview signals predicted good hires, because the signals were written down.
Give every rating one dictated sentence of evidence. Ratings without evidence are the thing that makes hiring data untrustworthy.
Interview feedback is personal data about an identifiable candidate. Third-party transcription is an extra processor to account for.
No. Its fields are typed.
Because the rating alone cannot be reviewed, challenged or learned from. The sentence underneath it is the part with information in it.
Yes, and they are a good use — job descriptions have no candidate data in them.
The free plan gives you 100 minutes a month without a card — enough to find out whether talking beats typing for you.
