    Frequently asked questions

    Is LastRound AI a good HireVue alternative?
    Yes. LastRound AI matches every core HireVue capability — real-time AI answers, transcription, multi-platform support — and adds a candidate-side prep tool to ace HireVue async video interviews. The free tier gives 15 credits monthly so you can test side-by-side before committing.
    How is LastRound AI different from HireVue?
    Three differences that come up most often. First, our desktop stealth mode is invisible in screen-share on Zoom, Meet, and Teams — verified by candidates who've used both. Second, your free 15 credits/month never expire. Third, transparent pricing in USD or INR with PayPal + Razorpay + UPI options.
    Can I cancel HireVue and switch?
    Yes. Most subscriptions are monthly so you can cancel HireVue at the end of the cycle. LastRound AI's free tier means you can run a parallel trial right now without overlapping cost. Migration is just signing up — no data export needed.
    Does LastRound AI work for coding interviews?
    Yes. We have a dedicated coding mode that handles LeetCode-style technical rounds, system design questions, and language-specific syntax. Works with shared screen on Zoom/Meet, and the desktop app stays invisible to screen capture.
    What about behavioral interviews?
    Same product, same credits. Live behavioral mode listens to the interviewer's question, parses it through your resume + JD context, and surfaces a STAR-structured answer in under two seconds. Mock-interview mode lets you rehearse before the real call.
    Is LastRound AI safe to use during interviews?
    The desktop app uses OS-level overlay technology that doesn't appear in screen recording or screen sharing on Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or Webex. This is fundamentally different from browser-based copilots that get caught.
    Do my credits expire?
    Bonus credits and free tier credits never expire. Subscription credits reset each billing cycle if you don't use them — same as any subscription product. You'll never lose paid credits.
