Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The estimate is built upward from licensed seats and active recruiter accounts, split by employer size, multiplied by the subscription price attached to each tier, with per-screening or per-candidate-minute usage fees added where a vendor bills by volume rather than by seat. That bottom-up figure is then checked against revenue signals disclosed by named vendors such as Spark Hire, HireVue, Yello, and ClearCompany, drawn from funding announcements, contract wins, and public pricing pages. Where the two disagree, the seat count or price-tier assumption is the one corrected, since unit economics for this category are better documented than any single vendor's total revenue.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Interviews target the buyers who actually choose and renew this software: talent acquisition leaders and HR technology procurement staff at corporate employers, recruiting-agency operators who resell screening capacity to their own clients, and the integration partners at applicant tracking and HR information system vendors who decide which video interview platforms get listed in their marketplaces. Compliance and legal staff are included where automated scoring features are in scope, since their sign-off gates adoption in regulated industries. Sampling weights toward the United States, the United Kingdom, and India, the three markets where recruiting-technology purchasing and vendor headquarters concentrate most heavily.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on national labor-market registers, including the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics job-openings and hires series, as proxies for the hiring volume this software screens. Marketplace listings on Workday, Greenhouse, and Salesforce AppExchange are used to count which vendors carry live applicant tracking system integrations, a reasonable proxy for enterprise reach. Software review platforms such as G2 and Capterra supply user counts and tier distribution by employer size. Where automated candidate scoring is in scope, the EU AI Act's published risk classifications and UK Information Commissioner's Office guidance define which features carry a compliance cost worth sizing separately.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast assumes hybrid and remote hiring keeps recruiting teams reliant on video screening rather than reverting to universal in-person first rounds, and that AI-assisted scoring keeps expanding within asynchronous interviews faster than within live ones. Small-business adoption is modeled on continued price compression as vendors add lower usage-based tiers. A normalization is applied against the pandemic-era 2020-2021 spike, so growth in those years is not extrapolated forward as a trend. The forecast holds if employers keep raising first-round screening volume per hire and if pending scoring-transparency regulation lands as disclosure requirements and not as outright restrictions on automated scoring.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Back-testing compares the 2020-2024 build against recorded hiring-volume growth in the labor-market series above, confirming that the recovery in hiring after 2021 lines up with the recorded revenue path rather than running ahead of it. Segment share shifts, particularly the move toward healthcare and logistics staffing and toward small-business accounts, were reviewed against the same procurement and integration-partner contacts described above. Sensitivities were tested on two assumptions: a slower pace of price compression for small-business tiers, and a delay in AI-assisted scoring rollout, both of which pull the 2034 total down without changing the shape of the historical series.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is strongest for the large-enterprise segment and for North America and Europe, where vendor pricing, marketplace listings, and hiring-volume data are all available and consistent with each other. It is weaker for Middle East and Africa and Latin America, where adoption is inferred from regional hiring-platform listings rather than from direct vendor disclosure, and for the split between live and asynchronous revenue, where usage-based billing makes that line harder to observe. The clearest risk to this estimate is regulatory: a shift in how automated candidate scoring must be disclosed could slow adoption faster than modeled here.
