Detect AI use in interviews
Candidates increasingly read answers from AI tools like ChatGPT during remote interviews. Hiriso quietly flags when a spoken answer looks AI-generated โ giving you a neutral nudge to probe deeper with a follow-up. No proctoring, no surveillance, and never an automatic verdict.
How AI-use detection works
Compares answers to AI reference answers
For each question, Hiriso generates what a strong AI answer would look like from the same inputs โ then compares the candidate's spoken answer for matching substance and structure.
Raises a subtle, neutral flag
If an answer looks AI-generated, the Q&A item gets a quiet indicator โ no popups, no sound. It's framed as a prompt to ask a follow-up, never as an accusation.
Recruiter-only, click to reveal
The reference answer is hidden by default and visible only to you, so you can judge whether the candidate recited it. It never appears on any candidate-facing surface.
An overall AI-assist likelihood
The interview summary includes an aggregate AI-assist likelihood, with per-question detail โ conservative by default so it under-flags rather than over-flags.
Detection is a neutral assistant, not a judge. It helps you ask better questions โ it never decides for you. Pair it with Hiriso's unbiased scoring and full AI interview assistant.
Frequently asked questions
How does Hiriso detect AI use in interviews?
Hiriso generates a reference answer for each question and compares it to the candidate's spoken answer for matching substance and structure. When the similarity is high, it raises a subtle flag suggesting you ask a follow-up. It works on every interview regardless of how it's recorded.
Can it tell if a candidate is using ChatGPT?
It detects when an answer closely tracks what an AI would say โ which is what happens when someone reads from a tool like ChatGPT. It's a probabilistic signal to prompt a follow-up, not definitive proof, and it never auto-rejects a candidate.
Does it penalize well-prepared candidates?
The threshold is high and conservative by default, and timing is only ever a soft secondary input. Thinking time is legitimate. The goal is to prompt a human follow-up, not to punish strong preparation.
Is this proctoring or surveillance?
No. Hiriso does not monitor screens, verify identity, or record anything beyond the interview itself. Detection is a quiet, recruiter-only signal based on the answer's content.
