Frequently asked questions

What does Codebusted detect?+

Tab switches, focus loss, copy/paste events, AI typing patterns, and with the desktop app: OS-level process monitoring, memory spikes, and external monitor connections.

Does the desktop app work on Mac?+

Windows fully supported. Mac coming soon.

How does AI typing pattern detection work?+

Codebusted analyzes keystroke velocity in real time. AI overlay tools type at 20-50+ characters per second — far faster than any human. We flag these bursts automatically.

How does OS-level monitoring work?+

The desktop app monitors process memory patterns at the OS level — it detects suspicious behavior, not specific app names, so it works even on renamed processes.

Is it free?+

You get 8 free interview sessions. No credit card required.

Do candidates need an account?+

No — candidates just join with a session code. No signup, no install required.

Does it have live video calling?+

Yes — two-way video and audio is built in. No need for a separate Zoom call.
