Separate recruiter tools from candidate tools
Recruiting teams may use tools for scheduling, structured notes, interview guides, and candidate communication. Candidate-facing assistants are a separate category, so recruiters should clearly state what support is allowed in every stage of the process.
Put consent and accessibility first
Candidates should know when interviews are recorded, transcribed, or analyzed. Provide accessible alternatives, explain data retention, avoid automated decisions without human review, and make it easy for candidates to ask questions about the process.
Write an explicit AI-use policy
A useful policy distinguishes preparation, take-home work, live interviews, coding screens, and assessments. It should specify whether candidates may use AI assistance, whether they can share screens, and how concerns will be handled consistently.
Where Cluegent fits
Cluegent is a candidate-controlled desktop assistant for permitted interview and meeting workflows; it is not an applicant tracking system, an automatic interviewer, or a recruiter surveillance product. Recruiters evaluating their process should use this distinction to make policy clear.
Where Cluegent helps
Cluegent supports permitted live workflows with transcript context, typed prompts, screenshot-aware answers, resume context, custom response behavior, quick action buttons, and a private desktop overlay. It is most useful when you already understand the subject and need help staying structured under pressure.
Frequently asked questions
What is Cluegent?
Cluegent is a customizable Windows and macOS desktop AI assistant for live interviews, meetings, coding screens, and screen workflows. It listens when you start it, keeps rolling context, and shows private responses on your desktop.
Does Cluegent join my meeting?
No. Cluegent runs as a desktop app and does not join as a meeting participant or install a browser extension into the call.
Which platforms does Cluegent work with?
Cluegent is designed for desktop workflows across Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Slack Huddles, coding editors, browsers, and document windows.
Can I customize how Cluegent answers?
Yes. In Settings, the Customize section lets you add resume context, tune listening responses, screen responses, and typed prompt responses, and manage quick action buttons for common prompts.
Is the private overlay a guarantee against every detection method?
No. Cluegent is designed to stay out of standard screen capture behavior, but users are responsible for following laws, platform rules, workplace policies, school policies, and interview rules.
