San Francisco, California--(Newsfile Corp. - November 4, 2025) - InterviewCoder, the AI interview co-pilot used by developers worldwide, today announced the launch of InterviewCoder 2.0, featuring significantly enhanced undetectability capabilities that the company claims are "10x more secure" than the previous version.

What Makes Version 2.0 "10x More Undetectable"

The new version introduces several architectural improvements:

Screen Share Invisibility: The application uses OS window properties that exclude it from screen captures and live screen sharing on Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams - the same technology used by password managers and privacy applications.

Global Hotkey System: Candidates toggle visibility using system-level keyboard shortcuts (⌘+B on Mac, Ctrl+B on Windows) that don't trigger browser focus detection. The browser never registers a blur event.

Click-Through Overlay: InterviewCoder 2.0 features a revolutionary click-through overlay that eliminates mouse-off-screen tracking. The cursor can hover or click on the application without triggering focus shifts or flags a capability.

Keyboard Event Masking: The application intercepts and masks keyboard events at the OS level, preventing detection of keyboard shortcuts used to control the app during interviews.

Invisible to Task Manager: The application runs in a way that it doesn't appear in system task managers or process lists on both Windows and macOS, adding an extra layer of discretion.

Audio Support: Version 2.0 captures and transcribes interviewer audio in real-time, enabling the AI to understand spoken questions during live interviews. This feature provides instant explanations of code snippets and algorithms, walkthroughs of system design questions, and guidance on common follow-up questions.

Overlay Positioning: The interface can be repositioned directly over coding editors using keyboard shortcuts, allowing candidates to view solutions while appearing to look at the assessment screen.

AI-Powered Reasoning: Beyond code solutions, the platform provides line-by-line explanations, algorithmic reasoning, and time complexity analysis to help candidates articulate their thought process naturally.

The Industry Debate

The Innovation Perspective: Supporters argue the platform addresses real problems with technical interviewing. Modern developers use documentation, Stack Overflow, and AI assistants daily in their work. They contend that high-pressure, isolated testing environments don't reflect real-world job performance and that tools like InterviewCoder 2.0 help qualified candidates overcome interview anxiety and systemic biases.

The Integrity Concern: Critics argue these tools fundamentally undermine the hiring process by allowing candidates to misrepresent their actual capabilities.

Industry Response

Assessment platforms are investing in AI-powered behavioral analysis monitoring typing patterns and response timing, enhanced webcam analytics, and in some cases, desktop monitoring applications. Many companies are also shifting toward alternative methods like take-home projects, pair programming sessions, and portfolio-based evaluations.

"We're transparent that this is an ongoing technology race," Ababakre said. "That's why we believe the real solution is fundamental reform of how technical skills are evaluated."

About InterviewCoder's Impact:

InterviewCoder reported that 41,000+ candidates who used the platform secured job offers in 2025, representing more than $110 million in new annual compensation. The platform's growing user base of 97,000+ developers reflects significant demand for assistance navigating online technical assessments.
