Bottom line

Sherlock AI detects proxy, lip-sync, and deepfake signals in live interviews. Starter starts at $100/mo for 10 interviews, with extra interviews at $10 each (100 minimum). Annual billing saves 20%.

Stands out for: Plans split into Only Fraud Detection, Fraud plus AI Fluency, and a full suite that adds automated interview notes, all with unlimited seats under fair use.

Watch out for: Starter includes only 10 interviews per month. Overflow is $10 per interview with a 100-interview minimum, so a busy week jumps from $100/mo to a much larger add-on.

Overview

Sherlock AI watches the live interview for proxy interviewing, lip-sync mismatch, and synthetic video. A multimodal model combines device, audio, and behavior signals rather than a single rule trigger. Optional AI Fluency scores how a candidate uses allowed AI tools. Note taking produces structured interview notes.

Starter is $100/mo for 10 interviews with 24/5 chat. Growth is $1,500/mo for 300 interviews plus a shared account manager. Add-ons are $10 or $5 per interview with a 100-interview floor. Enterprise is custom with 24/7 support. Annual billing saves 20%. ATS integrations are listed as available, unnamed.
