Frequently asked questions

Everything you want to know about Live Assist, mock interviews, privacy, and billing.

Getting Started

What is InterviewBoost.ai?

InterviewBoost.ai is an AI-powered job-hunt copilot. It feeds you real-time answers during live interviews on your phone or desktop, drills you with AI mock interviews, and scores your performance so you keep improving.

Do I need to download anything to get started?

No. You can sign up and use mock interviews right in your browser. For live interview assist, use the mobile app or the private desktop app — both optional, both free to install.

Is there a free plan?

Yes — a full one-week free trial with real access: mock interviews and performance analytics. No credit card required to start. After the week, upgrade to Standard to keep going.

Live Interview Assist

How does live assist work on my phone?

Open the app and tap Start. Your phone listens to the room, transcribes the conversation, detects the interviewer's question, and shows you a clear, structured answer in about 0.3 seconds — so you respond confidently in your own words.

Will my interviewer know I am using it?

On mobile, the app simply sits beside you like notes. On desktop, Stealth Mode uses OS-level window exclusion so the assistant stays invisible during screen sharing — it never appears in the shared screen, taskbar, or recordings.

Which interview platforms are supported?

Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, WebEx, Amazon Chime, and coding platforms like HackerRank and CodeSignal. Because the phone listens to ambient audio, it also works for in-person and phone-screen interviews.

Does it help with coding interviews?

Yes. The Real-Time Coding Companion reads the problem, suggests an optimal approach with time and space complexity, and can type a clean solution into your editor across Python, Java, JavaScript, C++, Go, and more.

Privacy & Security

Is the desktop app really invisible during screen sharing?

Yes. The desktop app uses Windows SetWindowDisplayAffinity and macOS screen-capture exclusion APIs, so it's hidden from screen shares, recordings, Alt+Tab, the taskbar, and the Task Manager applications list.

What happens to my interview audio and data?

Audio is processed in real time to generate suggestions and is not stored unless you explicitly opt in to recording for post-interview analytics. You can delete your data at any time from your account settings.

Subscriptions & Billing

What plans do you offer?

Two simple options: a Free one-week trial with real access (3 mock interviews, 1 proctored simulation, and analytics), and Standard at $99/mo with everything unlimited — live answer coach, desktop app, coding companion, and personalized improvement plans. Yearly billing saves 25% ($891/yr).

What happens when my free week ends?

Feature access pauses until you upgrade to Standard. Your interview history and reports are preserved and waiting for you.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes — cancel from the Subscription page anytime, effective immediately. Monthly subscribers get a prorated refund for unused time; yearly subscribers are charged the months they used at the monthly rate and refunded the remainder.

Do you offer refunds?

Beyond the automatic cancellation refunds, we offer a 7-day money-back guarantee on new subscriptions. If it isn't a fit, contact support within 7 days of purchase for a full refund.

Apps & Devices

Which devices are supported?

InterviewBoost runs in any modern browser, as a Windows desktop app today, and as iOS, Android, and macOS apps that are launching soon. Visit the Mobile App page to download what's available.

When are the iOS and Android apps coming?

They're in active development. Sign up for a free account and we'll email you the moment each platform goes live. The Windows and macOS desktop apps are available to download right now.
