Overview
CTRLpotato is a real-time AI interview assistant that helps you get from 'uhh...' to 'you're hired'. It captures questions with a single key — record audio, highlight text or snap precise screenshots — and provides first a hint, then the full answer, all within your workspace so nothing appears in the shared view.
The app supports live interviews, coding screens and online assessments, working with Zoom, HackerRank, LeetCode, CodeSignal, TestGorilla and more. It offers phone mirroring to hide the desktop app and control everything from your phone via QR code, plus custom AI behavior trained on your resume, job description and prep notes.
You can switch between top-tier AI models including Claude Opus 4.8, Sonnet 4.6, GPT-5.6 Sol, GPT-4.1 and Gemini 3.1 Pro. With 8,000+ interview wins and 200+ thank-you messages in the last 90 days, CTRLpotato is designed for real interview success.
