Ghostpilot vs Final Round AI
Both listen to your interview and suggest answers from your resume. They differ most in how you pay and where they run.
We make Ghostpilot, so read this with that in mind. Competitor details come from their own public pages (Final Round AI checked 1 November 2026); prices change often, so check their site before you buy. Product names belong to their owners.
In short: Final Round AI is a subscription: its shortest paid plan is $250 for two months, and it runs on Windows, macOS and in the browser. Ghostpilot is a Mac app you can pay for by the week (€19) or by the call (€4.90).
If you're on a Mac and interviewing for a few weeks, Ghostpilot costs a fraction as much. If you're on Windows or want a year of coverage with a big question bank, Final Round AI fits better.

Where Final Round AI is the better choice
- Runs on Windows as well as macOS, and in the browser.
- A large prep library: a 10,000+ question bank and AI interview reports after each session.
- Long plans (6 or 12 months) cost less per month if you expect to interview all year.
Where Ghostpilot is different
- Priced for a job search. Most searches last weeks, so Ghostpilot sells a 7-day Pass and single calls next to the monthly plan. You don't commit to months you won't use.
- A native Mac app. Ghostpilot is written in Swift for macOS: a menu-bar app with a floating overlay and keyboard shortcuts (⌘⇧S start, ⌘↵ answer, ⌘⇧X screenshot).
- Transcription on your Mac. Speech is turned into text on the Mac by default, about half a second after the interviewer stops, and the audio is never stored.
- Answers from your own CV. Add your CV and the job ad; answers follow your experience and the job's requirements, in bullets or a script, with STAR for behavioural questions.
- Prep included in every plan. Mock interviews with scores (37 role scenarios), question bank from your CV and the job, company interview guides, resume builder with PDF export, CV check, cover letters, job tracker.

Questions
Is Ghostpilot cheaper than Final Round AI?
For a search of a few weeks, yes: Ghostpilot sells a €19 week or a €4.90 call, while Final Round AI's shortest paid option is $250 (Prep, 2 months). If you interview all year, compare Final Round AI's longer plans with Ghostpilot Pro at €199 a year.
Does Ghostpilot work on Windows like Final Round AI?
Not yet. Ghostpilot's live copilot is a native Mac app; the web dashboard (mock interviews, resume builder, question bank) works on any computer. Final Round AI: Desktop app for macOS 14.4+ and Windows; also works in desktop and mobile browsers.
Will the interviewer see Ghostpilot?
The overlay is excluded from screen capture and has no Dock icon. How well that works depends on your macOS version and the app capturing the screen, so Ghostpilot has a built-in stealth test that shows what a viewer would see. No tool can promise 100%, and we don't.
Is my call audio stored?
No. Ghostpilot transcribes on your Mac by default and throws the audio away. With optional cloud transcription, audio passes through our relay to a speech service in the EU and isn't stored.
