Interview Copilot

The real-time AI interview copilot that doesn’t show up in screen recording

PhantomCode is the only interview copilot that combines real-time voice transcription, invisibility to screen capture, native Mac and Windows desktop apps, 50+ spoken languages, and a full after-interview transcript. Built for live coding, system design, and behavioral rounds.

Hears the question while it's still being asked

Live audio transcription with technical-jargon awareness. PhantomCode is already drafting an answer while the interviewer is finishing the sentence — no copy-paste, no alt-tab, no screenshot dance.

Two thinking modes for two interview tempos

Fast Think for under-pressure DSA where you need an answer in seconds. Deep Think for system-design rounds where reasoning depth matters more than latency. Toggle mid-round.

Invisible to every screen recorder we've tested

Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, OBS, QuickTime. Your interviewer sees your screen. The copilot stays out of the recording and the screen-share stream.

50+ spoken languages, with code-switching support

Hindi, Mandarin, Tamil, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Russian, and dozens more. The copilot handles when an interviewer drifts mid-sentence.

After-interview transcript per round

Every round generates a complete transcript. For 5–7 hour FAANG loops, this is the only way to remember round 1 by the time round 6 happens. Unique among interview copilots.

Native Mac & Windows — no browser extension

Browser extensions can be detected by interview platforms. PhantomCode is a native desktop app on both Mac (Apple Silicon + Intel) and Windows. Same feature set on both.

What “interview copilot” actually means in 2026

The category landed on the noun “copilot” for the same reason GitHub’s coding tool did — you stay in control, the AI rides shotgun. Final Round AI trademarked the phrase “Interview Copilot™”; the category noun stuck. But there’s real variance in what each tool actually delivers under the label.

True real-time means latency under one second from question to suggested answer. Some tools labeled “real-time” have 3–5 second delays — too slow during a coding round.
Voice-aware means it transcribes the interviewer’s speech directly. Tools that rely on screenshots aren’t copilots — they require explicit input every time.
Invisible to screen capture matters because most loops are recorded for hiring-committee review. A copilot visible in the recording defeats the purpose.
Multilingual matters because most candidates’ interviews are in English, but their first language isn’t. The translation tax is real.
