Deter · off-device
Deter the cheating no software can see.
A phone running an AI assistant, an earpiece, an accomplice just off-camera — help that never touches the interview computer, and that no detection agent can catch. Capifiq closes that gap the only way possible: with interviewing methodology that makes off-device assistance ineffective.
The full picture
Two pillars. One integrity.
Interview integrity has two halves. Capifiq covers both — it detects what happens on the device, and deters what happens off it.
Detect · on-device
Any assistance on the machine
The companion agent surfaces unauthorized tools running on the candidate's computer — hidden AI assistants, remote-control sessions, virtual machines, virtual cameras, browser assistants, display tampering, and new vectors as they appear. Deterministic, timestamped, sealed evidence.

Help that never touches the device
A phone, an earpiece, a person off-camera. No agent can see it — so Capifiq deters it through how the interview is run. Practical interviewing methodology, included with every account. No new tools.
You are here →The gap
What no software can catch.
The newest cheating doesn't run on the interview computer at all. It sits beside it — and that is exactly why software, including any detection agent, can't see it.
A second device
A phone or second laptop runs an AI assistant beside the interview, feeding the candidate answers. It never touches the machine being monitored.
An earpiece
Answers or coaching whispered through an earpiece. There is no software signal at all — the help arrives as audio.
An accomplice off-camera
Someone just out of frame reading questions and supplying answers, or a proxy who quietly takes over the hard parts.
Pre-fed material
Memorized answers, a leaked question bank, or prepared scripts — nothing running live on the device to detect.
This is not a limitation to hide — it's physics. If the assistance never runs on the interview computer, no agent can observe it. Pretending otherwise would be an overclaim. The honest answer is to change how the interview is run.
What you get
- Practical interviewer guidance, included with every account
- Ways of running the session that off-device help can't keep pace with
- Nothing to install and no change to your video platform
- Pairs with on-device detection for full coverage
How it works
Better interviews beat off-device help.
Off-device assistance depends on a predictable interview — one where a candidate can relay a question, wait for an answer, and read it back. The counter is to run interviews that don't give it that room.
Capifiq equips your interviewers with the training and materials that make off-device help ineffective in practice — without new software to install and without changing your platform. It is methodology, not software: a better way to ask, so an outside answer can't keep up.
What's included
Training and tools, provided.
The methodology isn't a PDF you're left to interpret. Capifiq equips your interviewers with the training, certification, and ready-to-use materials to put it into practice — included with every account, at no extra cost.
Interviewer training
A structured program that prepares your interviewers to run sessions off-device help can't keep pace with — practical and current, built on how remote-interview cheating actually works today.
Interviewer certification
Interviewers can be certified in the methodology, so integrity holds to the same standard across every panel — not just with your most experienced people.
Playbooks & frameworks
Ready-to-use, role-aware interview playbooks and structured question frameworks your team applies directly. No one has to design a cheat-resistant interview from scratch.
Templates & materials
Session structures, prompts, and reference materials provided out of the box, so the methodology is easy to adopt and consistent to run across your team.
Kept current
As new wearables, assistants, and tactics appear, the training and materials are refreshed and pushed to your team — the deterrence doesn't go stale.
Rollout & support
Help getting your interviewers up to speed, so the methodology is live on your real interviews — in practice, not sitting in a document.
What stays private: the specific techniques are the product. We give your team everything needed to apply them — the training, the playbooks, the materials — without publishing the playbook for the tool-makers to design around.
