Is it OK to use AI help during calls?

Using AI to help yourself is like using notes, a checklist or a coach. You remember a question, find better words, or slow down. You are still the one talking, and what you say is still true.

Deceiving is different. Examples: using AI in a test or interview that says no outside help, making claims you cannot back up because a tool suggested them, or denying that you use a tool when someone asks you directly.

A simple test: if the other person found out, would they feel tricked? If yes, do not do it.

It depends on where you are. TalkPilot transcribes the call as it happens, so recording and consent laws can apply even though it does not save audio. Some places require only one person on the call to agree. Others require everyone to agree. The rules differ by country, and in some countries by state or region.

If you are not sure, tell people. A short line works: “I use an AI tool that transcribes our call and helps me in real time. Is that okay with you?”

No bot joins the call to announce TalkPilot, so this choice is yours. In TalkPilot Teams, an admin can turn on a recording notice that adds a line to calendar invites or sends an email to participants. Reps can also copy a ready-made disclosure line from the app.

Yes. Be open about it with your manager and your team. Many companies have rules about AI tools and about where customer data goes. Ask before you use it on work calls, and follow your company's policy.

When a company uses TalkPilot Teams, the tool is part of the team's process, and there is nothing to hide from your employer.

Follow the rules you are given. If an interview or exam says no outside help, using AI help during it breaks that rule. Practicing with AI before the interview is a different thing, and it is fine. TalkPilot's Practice is built for that.

Many meeting tools join the call as a bot participant to record it. TalkPilot works differently. It runs on your own device and listens to your microphone and, on Mac and Windows, the sound from your computer. Nothing joins the meeting, and TalkPilot does not save the call audio.

This means there is no extra participant in the meeting. It also means the responsibility is yours: since no bot announces itself, you decide when to tell people, based on the law and on what is fair.

Not by default. TalkPilot's windows are visible when you share your screen. On Mac and Windows, Pro and Teams users can turn on a setting called Undetectable, which hides TalkPilot's windows from screen shares. Either way, nothing is added to the meeting itself: what others see depends on what you share.

Some tools, such as Cluely, are built around staying hidden. Hiding a window from a screen share only changes what others see on your screen. It does not change the rules about consent or honesty.
