Does Final Round AI work with Google Meet?

A compatibility label alone does not tell you whether your interview audio will be captured. The checks below help you assess your Final Round AI setup by separating supported environments, audio sources, and permissions.

• Supported environment: Check Final Round AI's current instructions for the specific product version, browser, and operating system you intend to use. Do not assume instructions for one version apply to another.
• Audio source: Confirm whether that version captures meeting-tab audio, system audio, microphone input, or a combination. Microphone access alone does not establish that the assistant receives the interviewer's speech.
• Permissions: Follow the capture-permission instructions for that version. Successfully joining Google Meet and hearing the call confirms playback, but does not confirm that a separate assistant receives it.

Use a practice Google Meet call with a consenting partner, the same computer and browser, and the headphones you expect to use. Test the assistant's access to speech separately from Google Meet's microphone and speaker settings.

• Ask your partner to speak and check whether the assistant receives their words. Audible playback through your headphones is only the first check.
• Speak yourself and check candidate speech only if your chosen assistant surface supports microphone capture.
• If interviewer speech is missing, inspect the capture source and required permissions. If only your speech is missing, first confirm whether microphone capture is supported.
• Repeat the check after changing the capture source or audio device.

For example, a backend engineer preparing for an L5 system-design interview runs a practice Google Meet call in Chrome with a friend. The friend reads a question while the engineer wears headphones, and the engineer checks that the assistant receives it. After switching to a Bluetooth headset, the engineer repeats the check because the audio setup has changed.

SubcueAI has two live-assist surfaces. The practical difference is which audio each surface captures and where its assistance appears.

• Native desktop app: The flagship macOS and Windows app captures system audio and microphone input, covering both interviewer and candidate speech. Assistance appears in a floating local overlay. The app works with browser calls and desktop meeting clients, including Zoom and Microsoft Teams.
• Browser extension: On Chromium browsers, including Chrome and Edge, the Side Panel provides live assistance using the meeting tab's audio only. It captures the interviewer, never your microphone, and does not transcribe the candidate. The Firefox build supports mock practice only.

Neither surface sends a meeting bot into the call or injects a content script into the meeting page. For a Google Meet browser call, choose based on whether interviewer-only audio is sufficient or you need microphone capture too. Check Final Round AI's current documentation before assuming its audio coverage matches either option.

Follow the SubcueAI setup tutorial for the surface you plan to use.

Google Meet compatibility does not establish that an assistant is invisible. A local overlay or browser Side Panel can appear in shared or recorded screen content, depending on what is captured.

SubcueAI's lack of a meeting bot and injected content script describes its architecture; neither fact guarantees undetectability. Screen sharing, recording, proctored assessments, and company-managed devices are outside the scope of any claim that assistance stays private. Device controls and proctoring can impose restrictions beyond the meeting application itself.

Confirm the interview's rules for AI assistance before using either product. For a closer explanation of visibility limits, read the detectability and privacy guide.
