# InterviewCopilot — Complete Product Context Canonical website: https://interviewcopilot.ai/ Last updated: 2026-08-10 Contact: hi@interviewcopilot.ai ## What InterviewCopilot is InterviewCopilot is a native macOS and Windows desktop assistant for live job interviews. It captures the system audio selected by the user, transcribes the conversation, detects interviewer questions, and streams concise answer guidance into a separate desktop overlay. Guidance is grounded in the candidate's résumé, the target role, and the conversation so far. InterviewCopilot is not a browser extension and does not join the meeting as a participant. It works alongside Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, and other meeting software because it operates as a standalone desktop app. The product is designed as a private interview coach or smart teleprompter: it helps candidates recall and structure their own experience. It should not be used to fabricate qualifications or violate an employer's interview rules. ## Core workflow 1. Download and install the macOS or Windows desktop app. 2. Sign in and describe the role being pursued. 3. Upload a résumé so suggestions can reference the candidate's actual background. 4. Start a Live Interview Session and select the appropriate system-audio source. 5. InterviewCopilot keeps the live transcript in context, detects questions, and streams answer guidance to the overlay. 6. For visual prompts, use the screen-analysis shortcut to capture a coding task, diagram, document, or job post and request a focused response. The app can be downloaded and tested without paying. An active subscription is required when going live in an interview. Setup guide: https://interviewcopilot.ai/how-to ## What the product provides ### Fast, structured answers InterviewCopilot begins streaming guidance as soon as it detects a question. Responses start with a few sentences that can be spoken naturally, followed by compact points the candidate can expand. Behavioral answers can use a STAR structure; technical answers emphasize approach and trade-offs; case answers use a clear analytical structure. ### Résumé and role context Suggestions are grounded in the candidate's résumé and the job description. The intended use is to surface truthful examples, accomplishments, and details the candidate already owns—not to invent experience. ### Conversation memory The current transcript remains in context so follow-up guidance can reflect what the interviewer and candidate have already discussed. ### Screen analysis The desktop shortcut can capture a coding prompt, job post, diagram, or document. InterviewCopilot returns a focused, worked response based on the visible material. ### Coding support Coding mode can propose an approach and explain code, complexity, edge cases, and trade-offs. The candidate remains responsible for understanding, validating, and explaining any suggestion. ### Glance mode The overlay can show concise highlights and speaking points intended to be absorbed quickly while maintaining eye contact. ## Screen sharing and visibility InterviewCopilot runs in a separate desktop window. When a candidate shares only a specific meeting, coding, browser, or presentation window, the separate overlay is not part of that shared window. Sharing an entire monitor displays everything visible on that monitor, including the overlay. Candidates should test their exact setup before an interview and follow the interviewer's policy. The website does not promise that AI use is universally permitted or undetectable. Policies differ by employer and interview stage. If rules are unclear, the candidate should ask whether notes or AI assistance are allowed. ## Pricing and billing - Monthly: $49 per month. - Yearly: $149 billed once per year, displayed as $13 per month on the pricing page. - Both plans include the complete feature set. - There are no credit meters, session caps, or per-minute charges advertised for the plan. - There is no free trial.

It listens to the interview, detects each question, and streams a short spoken answer plus structured points to the candidate's screen. Suggestions can use résumé, role, and conversation context. ### Does it work with Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams? Yes. It is a standalone desktop app and works alongside common conferencing software, including Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Webex. ### Can an interviewer see it? The overlay is separate from a specifically shared application window. A full-monitor share shows every visible window on that monitor, so the overlay can be visible. Test the setup and follow the interview policy. ### Is using InterviewCopilot cheating? AI assistance is not governed by one universal rule. Some employers prohibit live assistance. InterviewCopilot's intended use is to structure and recall the candidate's truthful experience. Employer and assessment policies take precedence. ### Can the app be tested before a real interview? Yes. The app is free to download, install, and test for audio capture and overlay behavior. A subscription is required for a live interview. ### What happens after cancellation? Renewal stops, access continues through the paid period, and already-paid fees are generally not refunded. There is no cancellation fee. ### Are interview conversations stored? Live interview audio and context are designed for ephemeral processing. Sensitive inputs are processed by the infrastructure and model providers needed to deliver the feature. Consult the Privacy Policy for the authoritative retention and processing terms. ## Official website pages - Home and product overview: https://interviewcopilot.ai/ - Pricing and purchase: https://interviewcopilot.ai/get-started - Installation and setup: https://interviewcopilot.ai/how-to - Interview guides: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog - Privacy Policy: https://interviewcopilot.ai/privacy - Terms of Service: https://interviewcopilot.ai/terms - Sitemap: https://interviewcopilot.ai/sitemap.xml Authentication and account pages are transactional product surfaces, not reference documentation. ## Interview guide directory - Where to Position an AI Interview Assistant Overlay: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/where-to-position-ai-interview-assistant-overlay - Real-Time Interview Copilot—how automatic live assistance works: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/real-time-interview-copilot-guide - InterviewCopilot vs Parakeet AI: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/interviewcopilot-vs-parakeet-ai - InterviewCopilot Review—workflow, pricing, and limitations: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/interviewcopilot-review - Coding Interview Copilot: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/coding-interview-copilot - Interview Copilot Chrome Extension vs Desktop App: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/interview-copilot-chrome-extension-vs-desktop-app - Machine Learning Interview Copilot: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/machine-learning-interview-copilot - AI Interview Answer Generator: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/ai-interview-answer-generator - Best AI Interview Copilots in 2026: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/best-ai-interview-copilots - AI Interview Assistant for Zoom: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/zoom-interview-ai-assistant-guide - Is Using AI During Interviews Cheating?: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/is-using-ai-during-interviews-cheating - STAR Method Answer Generator: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/star-method-answer-generator-guide - AI Interview Assistant for Software Engineers: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/ai-interview-assistant-for-software-engineers - AI Interview Assistant for Product Managers: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/ai-interview-assistant-for-product-managers - AI Interview Assistant for Google Meet: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/google-meet-interview-assistant - AI Interview Assistant for Microsoft Teams: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/microsoft-teams-interview-assistant - Undetectable Interview AI—what companies can and cannot see: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/undetectable-interview-ai-truth - Real-Time AI Assistants vs Mock Interview Tools: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/real-time-ai-interview-assistant-vs-mock-interview-tools - AI Interview Assistant for Behavioral Interviews: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/ai-interview-assistant-behavioral-interviews - AI Interview Assistant for System Design Interviews: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/ai-interview-assistant-system-design-interviews - InterviewCopilot vs Beyz AI: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/interviewcopilot-vs-beyz-ai - InterviewCopilot vs Final Round AI: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/interviewcopilot-vs-final-round-ai - InterviewCopilot vs ChatGPT for Live Interviews: https://interviewcopilot.ai/blog/interviewcopilot-vs-chatgpt-live-interviews The human-readable page at each URL remains the canonical source if a detail changes after this file's update date.
