Beyz AI vs interviewing.io: Live Copilot vs Anonymous Mocks
January 8, 2026
TL;DR
Beyz AI is built for the hardest part of interviewing: execution during the real call. Its real-time interview assistant provides Real-Time AI Suggestions plus Solo Practice, 90s Prep, cheat sheets, and an AI-powered coding interview assistant. You can get real-time, accurate responses to interview questions without breaking your flow.
interviewing.io is an anonymous mock interview platform: you practice with senior engineers in an audio + chat environment (no video) and receive detailed feedback after.
If your priority is real-time answers during live interviews, Beyz is the better fit.
Introduction
Most candidates don’t lack skills, they lose signal under pressure. You know the concept, you’ve done the prep, and then one follow-up question knocks you off structure: you ramble, forget the metric, skip the result, or spend 90 seconds silently deciding between BFS and DP.
The Beyz real-time interview assistant is intentionally a performance copilot. It’s positioned as an AI interview copilot for Beyz video interview workflows, plus practice loops that share the same context as your live sessions. You get a stealth-friendly flow via an invisible desktop app, Solo Practice, and cheat sheets you can glance at during the call. (Feel free to try it out and join the discussion on Discord and leave your feedback!)
In comparison, interviewing.io is a simulator-first platform. It offers fully anonymous mock interviews with senior engineers and provides detailed post-session feedback.
It also offers an AI Interviewer that runs coding and system design interviews “in the style of a FAANG mock interview,” with feedback at the end and a large problem set.
With Beyz AI, you get real-time interview guidance, structured practice modes, and a rapid 90-second preparation framework—all designed to transform how you handle real conversations and interviews. If your biggest risk is live performance, Beyz is designed to stay with you in the interview window, not just before it.
Product Overview
Beyz AI
Beyz bundles rehearsal and live execution into one system, so your AI interview practice and your real call run on the same context.
- Practice Mode: Run mock interviews using your resume; receive instant feedback, fluency scores, and transcripts. Great for structured rehearsal sessions.
- 90s Prep + Mock interviews: A quick-launch routine before interviews—summarizes your resume, key STAR stories, and role/company insights so you can “prime” in under 2 minutes.
- Real-Time Assistant: During calls, a stealth interview assistant overlays STAR cues, metrics, and tone reminders invisibly.
- Coding Assistant: Gives real-time hints and complexity cues during coding interviews.
- Cheatsheets + IQB integration: Draws from the **[interview question bank(https://beyz.ai/interview-questions-and-answers) to feed role-specific examples and company-flavored prompts.
interviewing.io
interviewing.io is built around anonymous technical mock interviews with senior engineers and an AI Interviewer for coding/system design practice.
- Anonymous human mocks: Fully anonymous sessions with audio and chat in a collaborative coding environment; you can optionally unmask afterward.
- AI Interviewer mimics FAANG mock interview: Coding + system design interviews with actionable feedback at the end and a large problem set.
Strengths: high-quality feedback, anonymous sessions.
Weaknesses: no real-time guidance, no 90-second prep, not built for live video overlay and much higher pricing plans.
Comparison Dimensions
Live Help vs After-the-fact Feedback
Beyz Interview Helper: Designed for real-time AI interview help. It surfaces Real-Time AI Suggestions (STAR structure, metrics, phrasing) while you’re actively answering, so you can recover instantly from follow-ups and keep pace.
interviewing.io: Each session ends with actionable feedback, but that value arrives post-session rather than inside your actual Zoom/Meet interview window.
Video Interview vs Audio-only Anonymity
Beyz Interview Helper: Built for Beyz video interview workflows, including an invisible desktop app that listens to interviews and sends suggestions to your devices—minimizing tab switching and helping you maintain eye contact and flow.
interviewing.io: anonymous mocks run with audio + chat which lowers stress and bias for practice—but it’s not the same environment as an on-camera interview.
If your real interview is on-camera, Beyz is optimized for that performance context.
Prep Speed and Repeatability
Beyz Interview Helper: Built for fast repetition: 90s Prep is designed for urgency, and Solo Practice is positioned as “practice anytime with the same context as in interview mode,” which makes it easy to drill daily with consistent structure.
interviewing.io: Built for higher-friction, higher-signal sessions: you practice with experts or via its AI Interviewer; it’s excellent for calibration, but scheduling and session depth makes it less “micro-rep” friendly than a 90-second priming ritual.
Beyz is the “daily muscle memory” tool; interviewing.io is the “high-stakes scrimmage.”
Behavioral Answers
Beyz Interview Helper: Strong at STAR delivery speed—real-time cues help you keep Situation/Task/Action/Result balanced, remember metrics, and avoid drifting into vague storytelling.
interviewing.io: Strong at diagnosis—expert interviewers can tell you exactly what sounded weak, what lacked ownership, and where your narrative didn’t land. The platform also includes behavioral content and replays in its library filters.
Ground truth: STAR is widely recommended as a behavioral framework, and career development experts recommend preparing a handful of adaptable stories. Candidates who structure answers this way are likely to have higher callback rates.
Technical Interviews & Practice
Beyz Interview Helper: Acts like an AI Interview Copilot for Technical Interviews—its AI coding assistant emphasizes logic breakdown, edge cases, and time/space complexity cues, helping you narrate cleanly under time pressure.
interviewing.io: Provides realistic pushback: humans can challenge assumptions in real time, and the AI Interviewer runs coding/system design mocks with feedback at the end and a large problem set.
If you want to optimize the effects, combine practice on Beyz coding assistant with comprehensive question banks on Leetcode for coding problems and GeeksforGeeks for theoretical depth.
Knowledge Scaffolding
Beyz Interview Helper: A cheat-sheet-first system: it explicitly markets “Interview Cheat Sheets” you can glance at during live interviews and positions IQB interview question bank integration as a way to feed role-specific examples.
interviewing.io: A replay-and-library system highlights a large collection of mock interview replays shared with permission and categorizes them by company/focus/level/language.
If you learn by having “my best stories + metrics + frameworks” ready at a glance during the real call, Beyz’s cheat-sheet workflow is the advantage.
User Experience & Guidance
Beyz: The user flow is built for “prep → live.” You can rehearse in Practice Mode, run 90s Prep right before the call, then switch to live prompting.
For phone screens, the experience extends with the Phone Interview Tutorial and “Buy Time” phrasing in settings.
interviewing.io: text-heavy interface; not well-organized functions and resources. You self-interpret patterns (e.g., overused words, missing topics).
STAR Example
I used to answer “Tell me about a time you handled conflict” with a story that sounded reasonable—but didn’t prove impact.
In Beyz interview practice, I kept getting nudged to add the missing piece. Then, right before the real interview, 90s Prep resurfaced the same story, so it was top of mind.
Situation: A stakeholder wanted to ship a feature that risked reliability before launch.
Task: Align on a safer rollout without delaying delivery.
Action: Proposed a staged release, wrote a rollback checklist, and set a trade-off meeting with clear decision criteria.
Result: We shipped on time, avoided rollback, and reduced incidents the following month.
That’s the difference between “I know STAR” and “I can deliver STAR under pressure.”
Feedback from Users
- “A full-circle preparation system and that the real-time assistant is the part that stays with you on the call.”
- “90s Prep is my panic button. I stop rambling because I walk into the call already primed with my top STAR stories and key metrics.”
- “The Beyz real-time interview assistant keeps me in STAR while I’m speaking.”
- “Cheat sheets + IQB solved the ‘blank mind’ moment. ”
Summary & Recommendations
Beyz AI — Best for live performance + repeatable prep
- Pros: Best for real-time answers during live interviews—a true AI interview copilot with Real-Time AI Suggestions plus AI-powered coding assistant support.
- Cons: To get maximum value, you need a bit of setup (resume/context + cheat sheets).
interviewing.io — Strong for anonymous pressure simulation
- Pros: Best for anonymous mock interviews with strong human feedback (high-signal pressure rehearsal).
- Cons: Not designed for real-time interview help inside your actual video interview.
Our recommendation: Use interviewing.io to calibrate under pressure, then build your workflow around Beyz so your prep transfers into performance. Rehearse with Solo Practice, prime with AI Tools for Prep, and use the Real-Time Assistant as your live interview helper**.**
