Zero Assist: Real-time AI cheating detection tool for remote technical interviews
By
Vaibhav Devere
There's a fresh bagel in here somewhere. We couldn't find it.
Summary
Zero Assist is a lightweight, forensic-grade monitoring agent that runs on a candidate's machine during remote technical interviews to detect AI cheating tools. It monitors OS-level processes to catch 20+ known AI assistance tools (like Parakeet AI, Final Round AI, ChatGPT, Copilot) in real time, providing instant alerts to interviewers. The product aims to restore integrity to remote hiring, which the maker argues is fundamentally broken due to candidates using stealth AI tools that traditional screen sharing cannot detect.
