It includes the Interview-Copilot for live overlays with keywords and answer structures during the conversation, an ATS-Resume-Builder to optimize resumes for applicant tracking systems, and an Auto-Apply/Job-Hunter that finds jobs and customizes applications.

A Billboard-Kampagne an der US-101 bei San Francisco near San Francisco with a provocative slogan about "Interview Confidence" attracted attention. In parallel, companies like Amazon are tightening their rules against teleprompter-like AI aids and threatening disqualification. Large employers are also increasingly introducing vermehrt Präsenzrunden to reduce fraud and identity theft.

Facts & Controversies
Confirmed is the existence of a Live-Interview-Copilots mit Stealth-Anspruch as well as additional ATS and Auto-Apply modules. The Seed-Runde über 6,88 Mio. US-Dollar is also confirmed.

Reactions & Impacts
Employers like Amazon see teleprompter AI as an unfair advantage and warn of disqualification. They focus more on authenticity and Präsenzrunden. At the same time, other actors are trying out open frameworks or differentiated policies; the range extends from prohibition to "preparation allowed, live use not." Medienberichte document how AI changes both sides of the market – from ATS scans to live coaching.
If you are looking for "price": Rely on the current pricing page in the account, not on screenshots from others; Preisangaben schwanken and are sometimes regional. If you ask "undetectable?": Without screen sharing, it can be discreet, but policies can prohibit use – read house rules and avoid deception.

Conclusion
People seek Final Round AI because they want better answers, less stress, more system, and faster applications before interviews – and because they need to clarify what is allowed. The tools can help with preparation and structure; in live operation, the employer's framework is decisive. Good practice: prepare transparently, respect policies, demonstrate skills – and currently review price/performance. The robustness of non-detectability across various operating systems, meeting clients, and security setups is an open question, as neutral tests with methodology reports are lacking. The side effects of Auto-Apply-Funktionen on matching quality and fairness on a large scale also require reliable ATS data and studies. The development of company guidelines between prohibition and "open-book interview" is also still unclear.
