Side by side

OphyAI and FreeLY, side by side

Both tools put AI answers on your screen during a live call. The difference is what you pay, what is hidden, and what is kept.

OphyAI FreeLY

What you get

Built for one thing: the live interview

No meeting bot, no notes dashboard, no subscription. Just the answer on your screen when the question lands.

Hidden in every plan

Never joins the call, so there is no bot in the participant list. The window is excluded from screen share and recordings. The overlay sits at your eye line, so reading looks like thinking.

Answers from your resume, not a textbook

FreeLY hears each question as it is asked and writes a spoken-ready answer from your real roles, projects and numbers. Glance, absorb, say it in your own words.

Pay once, when you need it

Interview this week? Quick Pass. Whole job hunt? Interview Pass or Pro. Every one is a single payment. When it ends you go back to Free, and nobody charges your card again.

Straight answer

When OphyAI is the better pick

A comparison page you can trust has to say this part too.

Pick OphyAI if you want a browser tool with practice modes and recordings to review.

OphyAI bundles practice sessions, a coding interview mode and stored session recordings in one web app with no install. If reviewing recordings afterwards matters, that is their product.

Pick FreeLY if you want a desktop app hidden at the OS level and nothing stored.

FreeLY is a separate window excluded from screen capture, on every plan. Your audio and documents are not kept on our servers.

One honest note that applies to both: FreeLY is built for video interviews. It is not a bypass for locked-down coding platforms like HackerRank or CoderPad, which watch focus and keystrokes.

Questions

Switching from OphyAI

Is a browser tool as hidden as a desktop app?

A browser tool depends on which tab or window you share; OphyAI's own page says results depend on browser, app, device and sharing mode. FreeLY's window is excluded from screen capture by the operating system.

Does FreeLY store my interview?

No. OphyAI stores transcripts and recordings in your account; FreeLY processes audio for the answer and discards it.

Does FreeLY take UPI?

Yes, through Razorpay: UPI, cards and net banking, inside the app.

Is FreeLY affiliated with OphyAI?

No. OphyAI is a trademark of its owner. Their prices on this page were taken from ophyai.com on 27 August 2026 and may change.
