Control
Day Pass: 24 hours, every feature, one-time purchase.
The short answers. The full FAQ covers detection, platforms, and privacy.
One interview tomorrow: the Day Pass ($12, 24 hours). An onsite loop or a cluster of rounds inside three days: the Sprint Pass ($19, 72 hours). An active search with interviews most weeks: Monthly ($39, cancel anytime). Every plan has every feature; the only difference is how long you have it.
There are. Open-source overlays exist and some of them are good at the one thing they do, which is usually a hotkey that sends a screenshot to a model you supply a key for. What they typically lack is live transcription of the interviewer, a phone remote so the interview machine stays untouched, a tested answer to "does this show up in Zoom", and someone to email when it breaks the morning of an interview. Control's free trial exists so you can decide that for yourself. If it earns the $12, the day pass covers a full interview day; if it does not, you have spent nothing.
Access starts the moment you pay, so there are no routine refunds: passes are final, and cancelling Monthly stops the next renewal without refunding the current period. Billing errors and duplicate charges are corrected. The free trial is there so a first purchase is never a blind one, and the most a first paid test can cost is $12.
Yes. New users get their first 5 messages and 2 minutes of voice transcription free. The trial runs the real product, so you can check the overlay, the hotkeys, and the transcription in the exact tools you interview in before spending anything.
