Cluely vs Interview AI Helper: price & feature comparison

Cluely is one of the best-known real-time AI interview/meeting copilots, and it's a fair comparison point. But its pricing page hides an important detail that changes the whole comparison: the cheap plan and the "hidden from screen share" plan are not the same plan. Here's the real breakdown.

The catch in Cluely's pricing

Cluely advertises a Pro plan at $19.99/month. What that plan does not include is undetectability — if you're screen-sharing on Zoom, Meet, or Teams while using the Pro plan, the overlay can be visible to the other person on the call. To make the overlay actually hidden from screen-sharing software, you need Cluely's Pro + Undetectability plan, which costs $149.99/month — a 7.5x jump from the advertised entry price.

That matters because "staying invisible while you share your screen" is usually the entire reason someone looks for a tool like this in the first place. Comparing Cluely's $19.99 headline price against a genuinely stealth tool isn't really comparing the same feature.

Who each tool actually fits

Cluely's broader product covers meetings and sales calls, not just interviews, which is a reasonable trade if that's what you need it for. If your use case is specifically interview preparation and live interview support, and you want the stealth behavior included rather than a $130/month upgrade on top of the base price, that's the gap Interview AI Helper is built to fill — see how it works for the full walkthrough.
