AI interview assistant for Mac
Answer every interview question with confidence
AnswerInterview listens to your interview and shows a short, speakable answer about 2 seconds after each question — hidden from screen share. It even corrects you live if you slip up.

I'd use event-time windows with watermarks, then backfill anything later than the watermark.
- Set a watermark (e.g. 15 min) so late events still land in the right window
- Send very late events to a side table and re-run the affected partitions
- Make the job idempotent so re-runs don't double count
How it works
Three steps, no bot in your call
Open it before your call
A see-through panel sits wherever you're looking. Only you can see it.
It listens to both sides
The interviewer's voice and yours are transcribed live with Whisper.
Glance and answer
A one-line answer plus key points appears ~2 s after each real question.
Features
Everything you need in the room — and more than the others
Answers in about 2 seconds
As soon as the interviewer finishes a question, a short answer you can say out loud appears. Small talk is ignored.
Hidden from screen share
Excluded from Zoom, Meet and Teams screen shares and recordings. Included in every plan, not a $149.99/month upgrade.
Live corrections
Say something technically wrong and a correction with the right fact appears within seconds. Right answers stay untouched.
Go deeper in one click
Interviewer asks “can you elaborate?” or “give an example”? The answer expands on the same card — automatically or with one click.
Recap, what to say, questions to ask
One click for a recap of the call so far, your next line, or sharp questions to ask them at the end.
Ask about the answer
Type “give it in Python” or “why this approach?” and the reply builds on the answer already on screen.
Coding rounds
Screenshot a LeetCode or HackerRank problem and get the approach, code and complexity.
Accurate for Indian English
Whisper speech recognition for both sides, tuned with tech terms like SQL, Spark, Kafka and Snowflake.
Private by design
No bot joins your call. Audio isn't stored on our servers, and your call history stays on your Mac.

FAQ
Questions
How does AnswerInterview work?
It listens to both sides of your call on your Mac: the interviewer through your speakers or headphones, and you through your microphone. When the interviewer asks a real question, a short answer you can say out loud appears about 2 seconds after they finish. Small talk is ignored.
Does the interviewer see it when I share my screen?
No. The AnswerInterview window is excluded from screen sharing and recordings in Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and other apps, so only you see it. It's included in every plan, including the free trial.
What does the Week Pass include?
₹349 gives you 7 days and 7.5 hours of calls, with each call up to 60 minutes. It does not renew automatically. If you need more time, a top-up adds 2 hours for ₹99.
How does the free trial work?
You get 3 sessions of 10 minutes each. If a call runs past 10 minutes, it keeps going into your next free session, so you can try one 30-minute call. No card is needed.
What do I need?
A Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later), macOS 26 or later, an internet connection, and permission for the app to hear your microphone and your Mac's audio. Windows isn't supported yet.
What if I say something wrong in my answer?
Live corrections check what you say against the question. If you state something clearly wrong — for example, the wrong time complexity — a correction appears within a couple of seconds with the right fact. If you're right, nothing appears.
Is my audio stored?
No. Audio is turned into text and sent to the AI to write the answer, then discarded. We don't keep recordings or transcripts on our servers. Your call history stays on your Mac.
Is it allowed to use AI help in an interview?
It depends on the company. Many employers and interview platforms don't allow outside help during interviews, and some rounds are in person. Check the rules for each interview. AnswerInterview is also useful for practice interviews, tech discussions and work calls.
