What cheap should include
A useful low-cost assistant should provide enough trial access, live context, typed prompts, screenshot analysis, resume context, and platform compatibility.
What to avoid
Avoid choosing only on price. If setup fails, answers are generic, or screenshots are weak, a cheaper plan can still waste the interview opportunity.
