v2.4Phase 2 · autonomous overlay with private assisted fallback

Interviews, unassisted.

NoHuman runs a silent flash-card overlay on your Mac during live video interviews. It listens to the question, drafts your answer in 840 ms, and scrolls it past you in a window the interviewer can’t see, share, or record.

That’s a good question — let me walk you through how I’d think about it from first principles.
Answer · streaming
I’d use DynamoDB global tables with last-writer-wins on the claim-status field. We measured the contention window at under two seconds at Anthem. For anything stronger, we fall back to a Saga with compensating transactions — 180 ms more p99, but it gives auditors the correctness story they want.
Follow-up · cached
If Alex asks about failure modes: Kinesis shard hot-spotting during open-enrollment spikes. Mitigation: consistent hashing plus a dynamic resharder.

The premise

Interviewing is a memory test, not a skill test.

You’ve built the systems. You’ve shipped the incidents. Then forty-five minutes in a Zoom window decides whether someone believes you. NoHuman doesn’t pretend to interview for you — it hands you the right story at the right second, so you can tell it like you lived it. Because you did.

840 ms first token

Cards start appearing before the interviewer has finished the question. You read, then restate.

Invisible to capture

Marked content-protected at the window-server level. Excluded from Zoom, Meet, Teams, QuickTime, and screenshots.

Your voice, your stories

Cards are drafted from your actual resume and the specific JD. Numbers, names, angles — none of it invented.

On device where it counts

Audio is captured, transcribed, and scored on your Mac. Nothing leaves unencrypted; replays stay local by default.

How it actually works

Four steps between question and answer.

Under the hood, NoHuman runs a cascaded pipeline. Each stage hides the latency of the next — you never see a blank card.

System-audio loopback feeds low-latency transcription. Word-level transcript streams in quickly.

Final answer
Sonnet-4.5 + your script deck. Eighty words, one concrete number, finished before you are.

“I’d rehearsed the Anthem story a hundred times and still frozen on it twice. NoHuman didn’t give me the answer — it gave me the opening sentence. After that, I was off.”

Privacy, because this is the part people ask about

Your interviewer can’t see it. Neither can we.

The overlay is a borderless NSWindow with sharingType = .none, pinned above screen-saver level. macOS itself refuses to include it in screen-capture output — Zoom, Meet, QuickTime, the Screenshot app, all see through it.

  • Minimal live processing. Meeting audio is streamed only to run transcription and generate coaching cards.
  • Replay controls. Replays are tied to your account and can be kept off cloud storage for sensitive sessions.
  • Scoped model context. Answers use the current question, your script, and the interview context needed for that session.
  • Release transparency. Public desktop releases include checksums and versioned artifacts on GitHub.
// NoHumanOverlay.swift · excerpt
let window = NSWindow(
    contentRect: bounds,
    styleMask: .borderless,
    backing: .buffered,
    defer: false
)

window.level = .screenSaver  // above everything
window.sharingType = .none         // the magic bit
window.collectionBehavior = [
    .canJoinAllSpaces,
    .stationary,
    .ignoresCycle
]

// macOS will omit this window from
// any CGWindowListCreateImage or ScreenCaptureKit call.

Honest answers

Things people actually ask us.

Isn't this cheating?

Companies run a memory-test filter on top of a job that's actually done with Slack, docs, and search. We think the filter is the bug. You can disagree. Either way, don't use NoHuman for anything you couldn't do on day one of the job.

Will the interviewer's recording catch it?

No. The window is excluded at the OS level — Zoom cloud recordings, QuickTime, and every third-party capture tool on Mac respect the flag. We re-test on every macOS point release.

What if I get flagged by an AI-detector tool?

You're the one speaking. There's nothing for them to detect. Cards give you raw material; you deliver the answer in your own voice, at your own pace.

Does it work for live coding?

Yes — CoderPad, Hackerrank, and shared-screen IDEs. Cards appear on the overlay, not inside the editor. You still write the code.

Can my employer see NoHuman running?

Not through normal MDM channels. If you're on a managed Mac with a CIS-level agent, assume anything is visible and use a personal machine instead.

Why is there a TEST MODE badge?

So you never confuse a mock run with a real one. The badge appears in the sidebar when your account is in test mode; cards still generate, but replays are tagged and excluded from stats.

Your next interview is Thursday.

Setup takes four minutes. You’ll have a script deck for your first company before the coffee goes cold.
