Cluely and OfferPilot AI both put an AI overlay on your screen that the person on the other end of the call cannot see. The difference that matters is what you pay for that invisibility, and whether it is the whole product or one feature of a general meeting assistant.

The invisibility is the whole point, and it is priced very differently
Cluely's overlay hides from screen sharing only on its Pro + Undetectability tier, reported at $149.99 per month. On the $19.99 Pro tier you get the assistant, but not the thing you actually needed it for. OfferPilot applies operating-system capture exclusion on every plan, including the free one, so the overlay is absent from Zoom, Teams, Meet, OBS and screenshots at $0.
That is roughly the difference between $1,800 a year and $468 a year for the same core capability, and you can confirm ours works before paying, because it is on the free tier.
General meeting assistant vs interview specialist
Cluely is built for three jobs: interviews, sales calls and meetings. It grew out of Interview Coder and has broadened since. OfferPilot only does interviews and coding assessments, which is why it carries things a general assistant does not: a company-specific question bank you generate from your own résumé, a screenshot capture flow built for multi-scroll LeetCode problems with OCR on the server, and three models answering every question in parallel so you can switch to a second opinion without waiting.
Where Cluely is the better buy
Be honest with yourself about the use case. If you want one tool that also sits in sales calls and stand-ups, Cluely covers ground OfferPilot deliberately does not. If you are on macOS, Cluely runs there and OfferPilot is Windows 10 and 11 only today, which is a hard stop rather than a preference. And Cluely is the better known brand, if that matters to you.
Where OfferPilot wins
- Invisibility at $0 instead of $149.99/mo. Capture exclusion is on the free plan.
- On-device transcription. Interview audio is transcribed locally with Whisper rather than shipped to a server, which is both a latency and a privacy decision.
- Metered on listening time only. The clock runs when the copilot is actually hearing the interviewer, not for the whole wall-clock session.
- Three models per question. Grok, DeepSeek and Gemini all answer once, in parallel. Switching between them costs nothing and re-asks nothing. Gemini is the recommended one for coding.
Try it against your own round
The free plan gives you 5 minutes of live copilot a day with the capture-safe overlay switched on, no card required, so you can verify the invisibility claim on your own screen share before paying anyone anything. Download OfferPilot AI or read the plans.
