Will Hirevue or Karat detect Wraitor?

Their detection systems flag pasted answers, instant fully-formed responses, tab-switching, and abnormal typing rhythms. Wraitor produces none of these signals — it types your prepared answer at a chosen WPM with realistic micro-pauses and self-corrections.

Does it work for video AI interviews?

Yes for the typed-answer portions. For spoken-answer video sections, wraitor doesn't apply — it only delivers text.

What WPM should I use for an interview?

We recommend the 'careful' preset (around 55 WPM with low typo rate) for technical answers, and 'natural' (around 70 WPM) for behavioural ones. Most adults type 40–80 WPM in formal contexts.

Can the platform tell I switched windows to copy?

Some platforms flag tab-switching itself. Wraitor doesn't help with that — but it does mean you don't need to switch back to paste. Trigger from the desktop overlay and stay in the interview tab.

Short answer

AI interview platforms like Hirevue and Karat flag four things: pasted answers, instant fully-formed responses, abnormal typing rhythms, and tab-switching. Wraitor neutralises three of the four — it types your prepared answer as native keystrokes, at a realistic WPM, with the natural pauses and self-corrections of a human writer. There is no paste event for the platform to catch.

What these platforms watch for

According to Karat's published guidance for engineering leaders, the strongest signals of AI-assisted answers in technical interviews are: continuous screen switching, instant fully-formed solutions, inconsistent verbal explanations of pasted code, and the bare presence of paste events themselves.

Hirevue's own cheating analysis echoes the same list and adds a fifth: typing cadence that doesn't match a candidate's other writing samples — too uniform, too fast, no corrections.

Why pasting is the loudest signal

Browser paste events are unmissable to any JavaScript that wants to listen. Most assessment platforms log them with a timestamp, a target field, and the size of the pasted content. A 2,000-character paste into a "describe a difficult conflict" answer field is a smoking gun.

How Wraitor changes what the platform sees

No paste event. Wraitor never touches the clipboard API of the browser. Its keystrokes come from the OS input stack.
Realistic WPM with variance. Per-character delays follow a Gaussian distribution centred on your chosen pace.
Bursts and pauses. Mid-word characters type faster than word-initial ones. Sentence-ending punctuation triggers longer pauses, just like real cognition.
Self-corrections. Occasional QWERTY-neighbour typos with backspace-and-retype — the most human signature of all.
Fatigue drift. On long answers, wraitor's WPM gradually drops and typo rate climbs, mirroring real fatigue.

The one signal Wraitor can't fix

Tab-switch detection. If the platform locks the browser tab or watches for window-blur events, switching to your draft tab to copy is itself a flag. Use wraitor's keep-the-tab-focused workflow: prepare your answer, copy it, then trigger wraitor from its menu-bar app while staying in the interview tab.

Use it responsibly

Wraitor delivers text you wrote elsewhere. It does not write your answer for you. We don't endorse misrepresenting AI-generated content as your own original work in interviews where that misrepresentation is explicitly prohibited. See terms.

See the cadence yourself.

Paste any 200-word answer into the demo and watch wraitor type it.
