Partly. Sensei AI has a $0 plan with 15-minute copilot sessions, the AI Resume Builder and the AI Story Editor. Its FAQ describes this as a limited free trial, while its pricing card shows no end date, so treat the limit as something to check. Coding Copilot, the Customization Suite and some other features are Pro only, and Pro costs $89 a month unless you commit to a year. We make CoPilot Interview, a competing tool, so check these details against Sensei AI's own site; they are as it described them in October 2026 and may have changed. This page sets out what the free option includes, where it stops, how it compares with a free plan you can use daily, and what to test before you rely on it in a real interview.

Sensei AI pricing in full has every plan and its refund terms.
Where free stops
- The FAQ calls it a limited free trial, so it may not last indefinitely.
- Coding help is not on the free plan.
- Without a yearly plan, $89 a month is high, and its policy is no refunds.
- A yearly plan is a bet on a long search, because there is nothing back if you find a job in six weeks.
- It runs as a web app, so check how it hears your call in the browser you plan to use.

What to test before relying on it
- Have a friend ask three questions on the meeting app you will use, and check the captions against what was said.
- Time the first useful line with a stopwatch, since impressions under stress are unreliable.
- Ask something specific to your résumé, to see whether the answer uses your context.
- Run until the free limit and see exactly what happens when you reach it.
- Read the plan page and terms once more, looking for a card request, a trial end date or a renewal.
