Pricing

Local AI and provider costs

On-device AI requires compatible hardware and may not be available in every customer environment. OpenAI, Anthropic, Deepgram, Claude, Codex, or compatible-provider costs are managed through those providers. ExtraBrain does not turn provider usage into bundled AI credits unless a future product plan says so explicitly.

What to compare against paid interview assistants

App price versus model price

Some live AI interview tools bundle model usage into subscriptions, credits, or lifetime plans. ExtraBrain keeps current app access separate from external provider billing so you can see which account pays for each request.

Usage limits

Before comparing any plan, check whether interview minutes, AI messages, screenshots, mock interviews, premium models, transcription, or support are metered separately.

Data path

A lower sticker price is not the whole privacy story. Compare whether transcripts, audio, screenshots, and answers stay local, go to a hosted service, or go to provider accounts you control.

FAQ

Common questions.

Short answers for people and crawlers comparing ExtraBrain with other live AI assistants.

Is ExtraBrain free?

What does Pro add?

Pro adds saved prompt presets, custom profiles, richer history, summaries, premium model controls where enabled, and advanced workflow controls.

Do I still pay my AI provider?

Does ExtraBrain include bundled AI credits?

No. ExtraBrain separates app features from external model usage unless a future plan explicitly says otherwise.

How should I compare ExtraBrain with monthly or lifetime interview tools?

Compare the app price, model and transcription billing, usage limits, platform support, privacy path, cancellation terms, and whether you want a bundled hosted service or provider access you control.

Can a team buy Enterprise support?

Yes. Enterprise is for rollout planning, responsible-use policy, security and privacy review, deployment constraints, and custom workflow support.
