Why it comes up: Interview integrity for deepfake, proxy, and ID. Quoted. No public $100/mo Starter.
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: Real-time detection for AI copilots, overlays, and proxy candidates. Quoted, live-checked 2026.
Stands out: It looks for 100-plus AI helpers including ChatGPT, Cluely, and InterviewCoder, plus overlays, remote desktop, VMs, VPN location spoofing, deepfakes, and proxy input. Alerts fire during the interview. Setup is pitched as three minutes with no IT project.
Watch out: This is not the InterviewGuard.ai coding-session product. interviewguard.io is a candidate desktop app. Do not mix the two rate cards. Per-interview fees apply on top of the monthly plan.
Best for
- TA teams seeing Cluely, InterviewCoder, and overlay tools on live screens
- Employers that refuse to record interviews but still want fraud signals
- Desks on Zoom, Teams, Meet, or Webex that can require a 30-second candidate install

Why it comes up: Enterprise structured video interviews with integrity tools bundled into the interview product, not a standalone $100/mo overlay.
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

Why it comes up: Candidate-fraud checks in the same category. Sherlock is the live-interview overlay with a published Starter.
Stands out: Know Your People is agentless inside the conference tool. It marks facial, voice, and behavioral mismatches, VPN use, and timing anomalies, aimed at proxy interviews and deepfake presence.
Watch out: There is no public rate card. The marketing homepage currently gives little product detail, so buyers should use docs.validia.ai and a demo. This is identity authentication, not a full interviewer.
Best for
- Remote hiring teams seeing proxy candidates and deepfakes on Zoom or Teams
- Employers that will not add a bot or a candidate desktop install
- Greenhouse, Lever, or Workday shops that want identity alerts on the record
