The fastest way from "uhh..." to "you're hired"
Real‑Time AI Interview Assistant
Capture questions through audio, text, or screenshots and get structured, real-time answers during your interviews.

Hint :
- • Binary search requires a sorted list.
- • Initialize low and high pointers.
- • Calculate mid and compare with target.
- • Adjust pointers based on comparison.
- • Return index or -1 if not found.
Detailed Answer :
def binary_search(sorted_list, target):
# Initialize low and high pointers
low = 0
high = len(sorted_list) - 1
# Continue searching while low is less than or equal to high
while low <= high:
# Calculate the middle index
mid = (low + high) // 2
# Compare target with the middle element
if sorted_list[mid] == target:
return mid
elif sorted_list[mid] > target:
# Target is in the left half
high = mid - 1
else:
# Target is in the right half
low = mid + 1
# If target is not found
return -1questions

Questions you're too afraid to ask
CTRLpotato keeps a compact, distraction-free window during calls and won’t interfere with your screen share. If you prefer, you can view answers on your phone as a second screen.
When you prefer using your phone as a second screen:
1. Scan the QR code from the desktop app using your phone.
2. A live viewer opens in your mobile browser.
3. Set your phone to stay awake and lean it somewhere visible — like
against your laptop.
4. CTRLpotato keeps running on your desktop — you can view answers on
your phone, control the app remotely, or use keyboard shortcuts as usual.
Answers update live on your phone.
Many candidates use AI tools. CTRLpotato is designed to help you stay organized and communicate more clearly, but you should only use it in interviews where external tools are allowed.
CTRLpotato uses a context buffer — like a digital clipboard. Add audio, screenshots, and text snippets. Then, send it all at once with a single key to get a complete answer that considers everything.
Yes! CTRLpotato provides hints and full answers structured for you to adapt naturally. Uploading your resume lets the AI tailor responses to your specific experience and tone, making them sound authentic.
CTRLpotato runs on both macOS and Windows.
