What is Darknote.ai and how does the AI interview copilot work?

Darknote.ai is a private real-time AI interview copilot that listens to the conversation through system audio, detects the intent of each question, and suggests structured STAR/PAR answers in under a second. It runs on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Discord and Webex as a native desktop app — no browser extension.

Is it invisible and undetectable during screen sharing?

Yes. Darknote runs as a transparent layer with native blur that never appears in recordings, Zoom/Teams/Meet screen shares, or proctoring tools. Only you see the live guidance, and global hotkeys let you hide/show the window without alt-tab.

How is Darknote.ai different from Final Round AI, Interviews.chat, Cluely or LockedIn AI?

Darknote.ai is a native desktop app (no Chrome extension), captures system audio via ScreenCaptureKit (macOS) and WASAPI (Windows), includes a Code Copilot with OCR for coding rounds, supports live English/Spanish bilingual translation with adjustable level (A1/B1/B2) and ships a simple monthly subscription — Basic $9.99/month (3h/day) or Pro $17.99/month (6h/day), significantly cheaper than competitors. It's the smarter alternative to Final Round AI, Interviews.chat, Cluely, LockedIn AI, Verve AI and Interview Coder.

Does it work for coding and LeetCode interviews?

Yes. Darknote includes a Code Copilot that captures the coding problem via OCR (LeetCode, HackerRank, virtual whiteboards), diagnoses bugs and suggests optimized algorithms with complexity analysis. Supports Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, Go, C++ and Rust.

Which video call platforms does it support?

Works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Discord, Webex, HireVue and any app that plays audio, since it captures system audio natively — no extension, no virtual cable.

Does it support English interviews for non-native speakers?

Yes. Darknote offers live English ↔ Spanish bilingual translation and an English level selector (A1, B1, B2) so the copilot matches your vocabulary. Built for Latin American and global non-native professionals interviewing with US and European companies.

Can I upload my resume and the job description?

Yes. Upload your resume and the job description and the AI injects your experience and the role's requirements into every answer. Create multiple profiles (one per company: Google, Meta, Amazon, startup) and Darknote recalibrates jargon and metrics automatically.

Does Darknote store my audio or the interview audio?

No. Audio is never stored without explicit consent. Processing runs under strict security protocols and GDPR compliance, keeping your competitive advantage private.

Which interview types does it support?

Coding/LeetCode, System Design (FAANG/MAANG), Product and UX, business cases, behavioral with STAR/PAR (including Amazon Leadership Principles), leadership, management, HireVue, online assessments and English interviews for non-native speakers.

How much does Darknote.ai cost?

Monthly subscription with two plans: Basic at $9.99/month with 3 daily hours of usage, or Pro at $17.99/month with 6 daily hours. Cancel anytime from the app.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. You get 10 free minutes when you sign up with your Google account, no credit card required. Enough to test the Code Copilot, bilingual translation, and Q&A history before subscribing to Basic or Pro.

What does each plan include?

Both plans include the OCR Code Copilot, bilingual EN/ES translation with A1/B1/B2 level, Q&A history with JSON export, and support for Zoom, Teams, Meet, and Discord. Pro adds more daily hours (6 vs 3) and priority support.

Which operating systems are supported?

Darknote is a native desktop app for macOS 13+ (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Windows 10+ (x64). Built with Tauri/Rust technology for zero latency and minimal CPU and RAM usage.

Can I review my interview history?

Yes. The History module saves every session with full transcription, question-by-question Q&A mode, favorite marking, JSON export and deep-linking to specific turns. Fast keyboard navigation (j/k, ⌘K) and day-grouped sessions.

Do I need to install a Chrome extension?

No. Unlike Final Round AI, Cluely or LockedIn AI, Darknote requires no browser extension or virtual cable. It's a native desktop app that captures system audio directly.
