11 Interview Cheating Softwares to Look Out For
Why You Should Care
- Scale – Some tools claim 100 K–1 M+ users already.
- Stealth – Invisible overlays, mobile sidekicks, even hidden earpiece audio.
- Coverage – From coding rounds to soft‑skill and system‑design questions, AI will do it all.
- Cost – Often priced at low-ticket consumer SaaS. Some options are free or open source.
- Risk – Perfect interview ≠ real on‑the‑job performance.

(Extra) Mainstream AI's
Beyond specialized tools, don't forget the most common method: a candidate can simply place their phone - running ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini - on their laptop screen. Voice to text features with these popular apps makes it possible to completely bypass the laptop environment all together.
2How They Slip Past You
- OS‑level Overlays – Rendered outside the shared window, invisible to screen‑share.
- Mobile Second Screens – Phone listens to the call, shows/reads the AI answer.
- Audio Hijack – Virtual audio drivers capture meeting audio, cut out mic echoes.
- Humanization Layers – Randomize variable names, insert typos, vary speaking cadence.
- Secret Hotkeys – Zero mouse movement, so nothing “pops” on the shared screen.
3Final Takeaways
-
AI copilots are now mainstream.
Two years ago there were none. Now 50% of applicants are using AI. In two more years it will be too late. -
Detection is a cat‑and‑mouse game.
New software won't protect you if cheating software can always find a workaround. -
Physical monitoring is the way forward.
Having a second camera pointed towards the applicant's screen (such as with Intraviews) is the only 100% secure way to prevent virtual-based AI interview cheating.
