Imba Interview Tool
Walk in prepared. Use the AI you already pay for.
A Mac app for coding, system-design and behavioral interviews. It transcribes when you ask it to, suggests answers as the conversation goes and answers from a screenshot, on your own ChatGPT, Codex or Claude account, or an API key.

What you'll need
- 1
A Mac with Apple Silicon
Running macOS 13 Ventura or later. Intel Macs, Windows and Linux aren't supported yet.
- 2
An AI provider you control
A ChatGPT or Codex subscription, a Claude subscription, or an API key. Imba doesn't bundle or resell AI usage.
- 3
A speech-to-text API, for audio
Audio features need a transcription API that works with the app. Text practice doesn't.
- 4
Your story bank
Your resume and a few STAR stories. Our guides walk you through building them.
What it does
- Coding, system design and behavioral
- Three interview modes to match the round you're in, plus reference lookup.
- Listens only when you start it
- Microphone and system audio are captured only after you choose to listen, behind macOS permission prompts.
- Transcript and live suggestions
- The conversation is transcribed as it happens, and suggestions stream in from what was just said.
- Answers from a screenshot
- Capture a question on your screen, such as a coding prompt, and get an answer to it.
- Your provider, your keys
- Your API keys and provider sign-ins stay on your Mac. They are never sent to Imba.
Screen capture: the app requests macOS capture protection for its window. It isn't universal, and tools that record through ScreenCaptureKit may still capture it.
Questions
- Is AI usage included in the price?
- No. Imba Interview Tool runs on the AI provider you connect, and that provider bills you directly. If you already pay for ChatGPT, Codex or Claude, you can use that subscription; otherwise you can use an API key. Audio features also need a compatible speech-to-text API.
- What will it cost me in total?
- $59.99/month for Imba Interview Tool after the 7-day free trial, plus whatever your own AI and transcription providers charge you. We don't mark up or resell their usage.
- Which computers does it run on?
- Macs with Apple Silicon running macOS 13 Ventura or later. There are no Intel Mac, Windows or Linux builds yet.
- When can I download it?
- Once the signed macOS build has been tested end to end. Until then no card is collected.
- Will it show up if I share my screen?
- It can. The app asks macOS to keep its window out of screen captures, but that protection isn't universal: recording and sharing tools that capture through ScreenCaptureKit may still show it. Don't rely on it staying hidden.
- Do I need it to use Imba Jobs?
- No. The job board, sponsorship quotes, H-1B history and the agent endpoint are free and stay free. Imba Interview Tool is a separate, optional subscription.
