PhantomCodeAI vs HireVue
HireVue is the platform you record on. PhantomCodeAI is the AI copilot that helps you while you record — undetectable overlay, real-time audio answers, screenshot capture for coding sections.
Undetectable on HireVue
PhantomCodeAI does not appear on the HireVue recording or in any screen-share stream. The interviewer (and the AI grader) only sees you and your editor.
Real-Time Audio Help
Live transcription of the prompt plus same-language AI responses streamed into a chat panel — for behavioral questions, system design, and coding.
Works in 50+ Languages
Whether your HireVue interview is in English, Spanish, Mandarin, Hindi, or any of 91+ supported languages and accents, PhantomCodeAI answers in-kind.
