Sherlock is praised for its effectiveness in combating AI-assisted cheating during remote interviews, a growing concern in the digital age. Users appreciate its ability to maintain interview integrity, allowing talent acquisition teams to focus on genuine interactions. However, some users report issues with integration, specifically with Google Meet, and difficulties in reaching customer support. Overall, Sherlock is seen as an essential tool for ensuring fairness and authenticity in remote interview processes.

@joseph_michel Many people are now using open-source code from AI-based cheating apps to customize and build their own versions. These often take the form of AI teleprompter overlays that sit on top of interview screens, making them extremely hard to detect.
At Sherlock, we’ve built a feature specifically to counter this. Even if a candidate is using a custom-built app, Sherlock can detect what applications are currently running on their system during the interview. This gives interviewers the power to explicitly allow or disallow specific apps in real-time.
This way, Sherlock effectively neutralizes these AI cheating tools—even the customized ones—by giving full visibility and control back to the interviewer.
