Is this actually legal to use during an interview?
Yes and this question matters, so here's the honest answer. Using PREPT Live is equivalent to having notes next to your monitor, which interviewers know candidates do. You are not fabricating experience or misrepresenting yourself. You are using a tool to articulate what you already know clearly and confidently. Interviewers themselves use evaluation checklists, question scripts, and scoring rubrics during every call. The playing field was already unequal. PREPT AI levels it.
Will the resume rewriter make my resume sound generic?
No and this is specifically what we designed against. PREPT AI rewrites using your actual experience as the foundation. It inserts the keywords the ATS is scanning for, but threads them into sentences built around your real background, not templates. The summary and bullets still sound like you just you with the right vocabulary for the job.
How does PREPT AI actually work during a Zoom call?
You open PREPT AI on a second monitor, a tablet, or your phone somewhere the interviewer's camera cannot see it. Enable continuous listen mode and the mic stays hot automatically. When the interviewer finishes asking a question, it detects it and starts generating your answer immediately no tapping required. The coached answer appears in 2-3 seconds.
Is my resume data stored or shared?
No. Your resume content and job description are processed in real time to generate your analysis and rewrites. They are not stored on our servers, sold, or used to train AI models. The analysis exists only for your session.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No contracts, no cancellation fees. Cancel from your account settings and your access continues until the end of your billing period. We want you to stay because PREPT AI works, not because canceling is difficult.
What sectors does PREPT Live cover?
16 sectors currently: General, Technology, Healthcare, Legal, Finance, Sales, Real Estate, Property Management, Retail, Logistics, Education, Hospitality, Customer Service, Skilled Trades, Admin/Office, and Remote Work. Within each sector you can specify your exact job title for even more targeted coaching.
Can I use AI assistance during a live job interview?
Using notes, reference material, and preparation tools during an interview is standard practice — interviewers use scoring rubrics and question scripts themselves. PREPT AI helps you articulate your genuine qualifications clearly and confidently. You are not fabricating experience; you are communicating it better. We encourage you to review your employer's specific interview guidelines and use PREPT AI in a way that aligns with them. Phone Companion Mode runs on a separate physical device beside your laptop.
How does Phone Companion Mode work technically?
Phone Companion Mode runs on your physical phone placed beside your laptop — a separate device entirely. Because it is a physical device and not software running on your interview computer, it operates independently of your screen sharing session. We recommend reviewing your employer's interview terms of use and using the product as a reference aid, consistent with how you would use notes or a second monitor.
What is the difference between Pro and Career+?
Pro ($12/mo) includes everything: unlimited live coaching, ATS resume optimizer, cover letter generator, LinkedIn optimizer, mock interviews, progress tracking, filler word detection, and application tracker. Career+ ($24/mo) adds three advanced features on top: salary negotiation coaching with a word-for-word counter-offer script, Duo Mode (invite a coach or mentor to see your questions live), and one-way video interview coach for HireVue-style prep.
Does PREPT AI work on iPhone, Android, Mac, and Windows?
Yes. PREPT AI runs entirely in your web browser , no download or install required. It works on Chrome and Edge on any device. For Phone Companion Mode during interviews, iOS and Android are both fully supported. Safari on iPhone has limited Web Speech API support, so Chrome on iPhone or any Android browser is recommended for the live coach.
How do I optimize my resume for ATS in 2026?
Paste your resume and the job description into PREPT AI Match. It scores your match from 0-100, identifies every missing keyword the ATS is scanning for, rewrites your summary and bullet points using the right language, and shows your projected score after optimization. Most users go from a failing score to 80+ in under 20 minutes. The most common mistake is using the wrong job title , if the posting says "Logistics Coordinator" and your resume says "Logistics Specialist," you get filtered out automatically.
How does salary negotiation coaching work?
Enter your job offer, role, location, and years of experience. PREPT AI gives you a specific counter-offer range based on compensation data, a word-for-word script to deliver it, and three power phrases that shift the conversation in your favor. Career+ feature. The average user negotiates $8,000-$22,000 more than their initial offer when they go in with a specific number and a script rather than a vague ask.
What is STAR format and why does it matter?
STAR stands for Situation, Task, Action, Result. It is the structure that trained interviewers are explicitly scoring your answers against. Every behavioral question , "tell me about a time you," "describe a situation where you" , is designed to elicit a STAR response. PREPT AI structures every coached answer in STAR format automatically so your answers hit every point an interviewer is looking for, even under pressure.
Can employers detect if my resume was written by AI?
Yes, and this is increasingly common. 46% of recruiters now use AI content detection tools as part of their screening process (Resume Genius, 2025). Tools like Workday AI Screening, Greenhouse signal scoring, and standalone detectors like GPTZero flag resumes with overused AI phrases ("leverage," "spearhead," "synergy," "proven track record"), structural uniformity where all bullets are the same length, and vague superlatives without supporting data. PREPT AI Match includes an AI Detection Risk score that analyzes your resume for these specific patterns and tells you exactly which phrases to replace to sound human-authored again.
How often is the ATS scoring engine updated?
Quarterly. The PREPT AI Match scoring engine (currently v2.1, updated April 2026) is reviewed and updated every quarter as ATS platforms release new versions, employer screening behavior shifts, and new AI detection patterns emerge. The research base is updated to reflect current studies from Jobscan, LinkedIn Talent Trends, and hiring outcome data. When the engine updates, existing users benefit immediately on their next analysis — no reinstall or action required.
