Is it really free?
Yes. Access is free for approved academic researchers, corporate I/O and people analytics practitioners conducting research, and students.
Who can request access?
Faculty, researchers, and graduate or undergraduate students in I/O psychology, business, HR, people analytics, and related fields, plus I/O and people analytics practitioners conducting internal research. We ask for a university or work email so we can confirm your affiliation.
Should I choose the Complete ATS or the Developer API?
Choose the Complete ATS if you want to run interviews yourself, whether for a study, a class, or a simulated hiring process. Choose the Developer API if you already have interview transcripts, or want to analyze many of them programmatically. Not sure? Request both.
What data does the Developer API accept?
Interview transcripts as text, from any interview format and any transcription provider. Transcript text isn't stored by default, is never written to logs, and is never sent to a large language model.
How do I describe the assessment in a methods section?
Every API result reports the engine version that produced it, so you can state exactly what was measured. Scoring is deterministic: the same text on the same engine version always produces the same result. Ask our team about methodology details when you request access.
Can I use research access to make hiring decisions?
Research and education access is for research and learning. If you'd like to use Talent Select AI in live hiring, talk to our team about our products.
