Why it comes up: Sherlock AI publishes from $100/mo for proxy, lip-sync, and deepfake signals if you want a priced interview-fraud detector.
Stands out: 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: 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.
Best for
- TA teams running remote video interviews that need proxy and deepfake signals
- Orgs that permit some AI use and want an AI Fluency score beside fraud
- Teams that want automated notes on the same Sherlock session

Why it comes up: HireID is a quoted interview-integrity layer with a live agent inside Zoom, Meet, and Teams rather than a candidate desktop app.
Stands out: An Interview Agent can join the live conference and surface facial, voice, lip-sync, and AI-assist signals without auto-rejecting the candidate, so a human still makes the call.
Watch out: There is no published price or self-serve plan. It is a trust layer on top of your ATS and video tool, not a full interviewing product.
Best for
- TA teams seeing proxy interviews and deepfakes on Zoom, Meet, or Teams
- Employers that need ID-to-face matching before an offer, not after a background check
- Staffing desks that must explain every fraud signal to a client or counsel

Why it comes up: Polygraf AI is quoted deepfake and interview-cheating detection without Interview Guard's no-recording desktop-app model.
Stands out: Transcribes interviews and scores AI-coached answers in under 2 seconds, aimed at Cluely, Yoodli, InterviewCoder, and Pickle.
Watch out: The hiring detector is demo-sold. Retail AI-detector plans exist for writing, but those are a different SKU from interview fraud.
Best for
- TA teams fighting AI-coached live interviews
- Security teams that want on-prem AI policy enforcement
- Employers hiring into sensitive or government roles

Why it comes up: HireVue is a full structured video-interview platform, not a fraud overlay you drop onto an existing Zoom screen.
Stands out: Video interviews and validated assessments in one enterprise suite.
Watch out: No published price, and it is far heavier than a small team needs for async video.
Best for
- Enterprise talent teams standardising video interviews
- Teams that need assessments before an onsite
- High-volume employers that cannot run live first rounds
