LockedIn AI works with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Skype, which its support center names on November 13, 2026, along with "other video conferencing platforms"; it also has a Phone Interview mode and a coding copilot that captures problems from pads such as CoderPad. It runs as a desktop app for Windows 10, Windows 11 and macOS 13 or later, as a web app in Chrome, Edge, Chromium, Opera or Brave (not Safari or Firefox), and as an iOS app, with Android in development. We make CoPilot Interview, a competing app, so we describe LockedIn from its own pages and label our pick.

How LockedIn AI hears the interviewer
The desktop app captures system audio itself, so no third-party audio driver is needed. On a Mac it asks for three permissions: Screen Recording, which is what lets it hear the interviewer; Microphone, which lets it hear you; and Accessibility, for keyboard shortcuts. macOS applies a new Screen Recording grant only after a restart. On Windows, system audio comes from whichever output device is selected, and the support center suggests reinstalling the audio driver if the interviewer is missing. In the web app you grant Chrome screen-recording and microphone permission instead. Phone Interview mode runs only in the web version: the phone sits on speaker 6 to 12 inches from the laptop, or you link a phone number to Google Voice.
Setup, app by app
- Pick a surface: the desktop app on Windows 10 or 11 or macOS 13+, or the web app in Chrome (Edge, Chromium, Opera or Brave also work).
- On a Mac, allow Screen Recording, Microphone and Accessibility, then restart so the Screen Recording grant applies.
- Zoom, Teams, Google Meet or Skype: start a session in the desktop app and join the meeting as usual; check the selected Windows output device if captions stay empty.
- Web app: grant Chrome screen-recording and microphone permission when asked.
- Phone interview: open Phone Interview mode in the web app and place the phone on speaker near the laptop, or route the call through Google Voice.
- Coding round: run the desktop app beside the pad and press F7 to capture the problem.
Before the real interview, run a ten-minute test:
- Ask a friend to call you on the app your interview uses from another device, exactly as the interview will run.
- Have them read three questions aloud and check that the assistant's captions match what was said, word for word.
- Unplug or switch your headphones once: many failures come from audio going to a Bluetooth headset the tool is not listening to.
- Share your screen the way the interviewer may ask you to, and look at the recording to see what they would see.
- Read the invitation. If it forbids outside help, use the tool to practice beforehand and take the round yourself.
Limits and rules to know
- Free plan: unlimited 5-minute sessions up to 60 minutes a day, with a 1-minute pause between sessions, as stated on November 13, 2026; mock interviews and image analysis cost credits for free users.
- Credits: 1 credit buys 2 minutes of copilot time. Its pricing page showed no prices when we checked (only "Loading prices"), so confirm them on its site before you pay.
- Phone Interview mode is web-only, and online assessments are not reliable in a mobile browser.
- Safari and Firefox are not supported for the web app.
- Refunds are handled case by case by email.
- It also markets a mode for use without the interviewer knowing; we leave that out.
Two kinds of round sit outside every assistant on this page. Timed online assessments on platforms such as HackerRank, CodeSignal and Codility, and one-way video interviews such as HireVue, are usually proctored or recorded for review, and their instructions normally forbid outside help, so prepare for them instead of using a tool live. In a live conversation with a person, follow your employer's rules and the instructions in the invitation.

Where CoPilot Interview fits
★ Best choice for most people: CoPilot Interview. LockedIn covers more devices and allows more free minutes a day (60 against 15), while ours gives 15-minute free sessions against its 5-minute ones and publishes a refund window. CoPilot Interview is an interview copilot built as a desktop app for Windows 10 and 11 and macOS 12 or later. Our FAQ describes it as running in its own window beside Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, CoderPad and HackerRank, so there is no browser extension or meeting plugin to install; it listens to the call and your microphone and shows a structured answer in about two seconds. The free plan gives 15 minutes a day of live help in sessions of up to 15 minutes, with AI mock interviews included. Standard is $24.99 a month and Pro $39.99, hour packs cost $9.99, $29.99 or $49.99, and a 14-day money-back guarantee covers the first payment of a new subscription if under 30 minutes of live session time were used (see the refund policy). You can rehearse first in the free browser demo or the AI mock interview. Whatever you use, follow your employer's rules.
