HackySack
The stealth AI interview assistant for Windows. Ace live technical, behavioral, and coding interviews with instant, glanceable answers.
🛡️ 100% Stealth & Screen-Share Proof
Share your screen on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet with zero stress. Hardware-level DWM window protection guarantees your interviewer only sees your desktop—never the assistant window.
⌨️ Fully Customizable Hotkeys & Shortcuts
Rebind any global OS shortcut or in-app hotkey directly from the Settings sub-menu. Customize focus window, instant cursor screenshot, audio recording, context clearing, and Ask AI triggers to match your workflow.
🎛️ Independent Audio Devices & "Interviewer Only" Mode
Choose your exact input microphone and output playback device in Settings. Toggle "Record Interviewer Only" to isolate the interviewer's voice so your own answers never clutter the AI's context memory.
👻 Click-Through Ghost Mode with Dynamic Opacity
Make the overlay completely click-transparent (Ctrl+Alt+C) and adjust live transparency with the top bar slider. Code in your IDE and navigate tabs directly through the assistant window.
🧠 Resume & Job Description Synthesis
Upload PDF, DOCX, or TXT of your Resume, Target Job Description, and Notes. HackySack directly weaves your authentic career projects, tech stack, and measurable metrics into every response.
📸 1-Click Screen Capture OCR
Capture live LeetCode coding problems, SQL database schemas, or slide decks directly from your screen into structured text context with zero typing.
⚡ Teleprompter Live Response Format
Designed for 0.5-second glanceability during live calls. Features a 3-second direct answer, bold keyword pills, a 60-second speaking script, and copyable working code snippets—generated in under 1.5 seconds.
🎙️ Dual-Channel Speech Transcript Engine
High-performance Rust WASAPI audio capture simultaneously listening to system speaker loopback (interviewer) and microphone (candidate) with real-time speaker separation and VAD filtering.
