Does it stay hidden when I share my entire screen?
On Windows 10 version 2004 or later and Windows 11, yes. The windows are excluded from capture by Windows itself, so they are left out of full-desktop shares in Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and OBS as well as window shares, screenshots and recordings. Viewers see whatever is behind the window. Keep "Show app while screen sharing" Off (the default); turning it On makes the main app and the floating assistant visible to viewers.
Does screen-share privacy work on macOS?
The macOS app marks its windows with NSWindowSharingNone, which asks macOS to leave them out of screen capture and screen sharing. Whether a given meeting app respects it depends on how that app captures the screen, so do a test share before the interview. The Dock icon stays visible on macOS because there is no per-window way to hide it.
Does it work with Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Zoom?
Yes. InterviewOS runs as a separate desktop app next to your meeting, not inside it. It listens to your computer's audio output, so it works with any call that plays the interviewer through your speakers or headset, including Google Meet in a browser. Nothing joins the meeting, and no meeting plugin is required.
Can anything still see the app?
Capture exclusion stops software capture: screen sharing, recording and screenshots. It cannot hide the screen from a phone or camera pointed at the monitor, or from an HDMI capture card on the display output. On Windows builds older than 10 version 2004 the window cannot be excluded and stays capturable.
Does it hear my own voice?
With the Computer audio source it captures your computer's output, which carries the interviewer, not your microphone. A Microphone source exists for solo practice, where you ask the questions yourself.
Will it make up experience I do not have?
No. Answers are grounded in the CV, stories and job description you add. When a question goes beyond them, the card says so instead of inventing a background for you. AI can still make mistakes, so put suggestions into your own words and check the details.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Eligible new accounts receive 60 free credits on signup, and no credit card is required. 1 credit = 1 minute, so that is up to 60 minutes of live interview. When you need more, choose a paid plan on the pricing page.
Can I use live assistance in any interview?
Use it only where the interview or assessment rules allow AI assistance, and get any consent required for transcribing the call. The privacy features exist to keep your CV, notes and settings off a shared screen, and our Acceptable Use Policy applies to every session.
