One candidate, one role
Interviewer A
Strong hire
Loved the migration story.
Interviewer A called the same candidate: Strong hire. Loved the migration story.Interviewer B
No
Stumbled on system design.
Interviewer B called the same candidate: No. Stumbled on system design.Interviewer C
On the fence
Ran low on time, hard to say.
Interviewer C called the same candidate: On the fence. Ran low on time, hard to say.Interviewer D
Strong hire
Solid on the fundamentals.
Interviewer D called the same candidate: Strong hire. Solid on the fundamentals.Illustration. One person, one role, four different calls, each on a different yardstick. With no shared standard, none of it lines up to compare.
The gap
Companies bring structure to everything but the biggest decision.
Companies bring discipline to sales, finance, and product. Then they make the most important call, the hire, on gut feel.
The same candidate can ace one interview and miss the next. Not because they changed, but because of who was across the table.
It isn't that people don't care. The tools were never built for it.
how a hire moves through Panelynx
One platform, from the plan to the offer.
A hire runs in four steps. The structure that keeps it fair sits in the middle. Everyone scores on the same scorecard, and every score locks before anyone sees anyone else.
Each step opens up below.
Step 1
Build the interview before anyone walks in.
Lay out the sections, set the time for each, and pull questions from your bank. AI can draft questions for a role. You keep the ones that fit and edit the rest.
- Question bank
- Sections with time estimates
- AI drafts, you decide

±0 gapDescribe a time you took ownership
±2 gapThe lock
The loudest voice can't set the anchor.
Every panelist scores independently and locks it in before they see anyone else's. So no one anchors to whoever scored or spoke first.
It isn't a house rule, it's enforced. No one on the panel can open the comparison until their own score is in.
AI, honestly
AI gives a second opinion. People decide.
It hands you a recommendation and its reasoning. You make the call.
Every AI feature in Panelynx is here to help you read a candidate, not to make the call for you. AI actions draw from your workspace's credits, and your usage stays visible in your account. It is assistive by design, and people make every decision.
Priced per recruiter, not per person in the room.
You pay for two seats, Recruiter and Interviewer Pro. Everyone else you bring into the interview is free.
A real panel pulls in a few people: the recruiter, the interviewers, the hiring manager, sometimes a colleague who refers the candidate. Only the two roles that own the hire are paid. Bring the whole panel in. Everyone scores independently, and locks before seeing anyone else, at no extra seat cost.
Still deciding? Here is how the parts people ask about actually work.
The six things people ask before they sign up, answered straight. No sales call.
Yes. 14 days, no card. You sign up and you are in, no sales call in the way. It is a working account, not a sandbox tour, so you can post a real role, build a scorecard, and run an actual interview during the trial. Nothing charges unless you choose to keep going after the 14 days.
Start now
Run your next interview on the same standard for every candidate.
A complete applicant tracking system, postings, pipeline, scheduling, and offers, with structured interviewing built into the core. I'm early, by design, and I'm building it with a short list of teams who care about getting this right. It's a narrow door on purpose.
