GeekBye
GeekBye is a native desktop application for macOS (14.0 Sonoma or later) and Windows that supplies real-time AI answers during video meetings on Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Slack and Webex. The user presses Ctrl+Enter and the tool answers from the screen and conversation, with responses stated to start streaming within 2-3 seconds; live suggestions are presented ready to click rather than executed automatically. It is marketed explicitly on concealment - "Completely invisible and undetectable", hidden from screen recordings, no bots joining calls, "Zero traces" - and is aimed at job seekers in technical interviews, sales staff handling objections, students in oral exams and executives in meetings. The same page also states the vendor "cannot guarantee it is invisible or undetectable in every setup" and advises testing each operating system, meeting app, sharing mode and recording. It transcribes both sides of the conversation in real time and, after a meeting, scores the user's own communication across six metrics with transcript-backed feedback; that is feedback on the user, not disclosure of why the system answered as it did, and the page checked discloses nothing about the latter. On data handling, the page as captured 2026-09-22 states that session material can be kept on the device while AI requests go through GeekBye's authenticated backend, and that newly saved non-video assets are encrypted while videos remain unencrypted; the stronger claim in our 2026-09-08 capture - an encrypted local database and "Nothing is uploaded to cloud servers" - no longer appears on the page. Pricing on that same capture is $24.99 for the first month and $49.99/month thereafter against a $74.99 list price, with a one-time lifetime purchase offered as an alternative to recurring billing; the $149.99/month "Pro" price in our earlier capture has been withdrawn. The page reports "600+ users" and 33 languages as of August 25, 2026. No insurance, indemnity, certification or compliance framework appears on the page checked, and it publishes no prohibited-use terms.

Trust gap
How this is scoredAre scope, spend, and authority enforced while the agent runs?
The user gates each action manually - "Hit Ctrl Enter" per response, and suggestions arrive "Ready to click" rather than executed - so a human holds the trigger. But that is a UI default, not an enforced limit: the page checked states no scope, spend or authority ceiling the product imposes on itself.
Counts Human oversight and Initiative, each cited below.
How this gap gets closed →Is there a tamper-evident record of what it actually did?
Concealment is the marketed feature and it is the inverse of a trail: "They'll never know you're using it Hidden from screen recordings. No bots join calls. Zero traces." A local transcript is kept for the operator, but the product states it deliberately leaves no record discoverable by the other party to the conversation. Scored 0 on the evidence of that claim, not on its absence.
Our automated recount on Sep 13, 2026 counted enough evidenced fields for 1/3. It never reads what those fields say, so it does not overturn the score above, judged on Sep 13, 2026 — but where the two disagree it is a reason to read this dimension again. Why there are two scores
Counts Audit trail, each cited below.
How this gap gets closed →Are compliance obligations attached per engagement?
No public evidence found. The page checked names no regulatory status, certification or compliance framework - notable given it targets "students in oral exams" and "job seekers in technical interviews".
How this gap gets closed →Does payment depend on a verified result?
Payment is a flat subscription - "$ 24.99 / month first month then $49.99/month list $74.99" - or a one-time "Pay once, use forever" lifetime purchase. Neither is conditioned on any outcome. (Rationale corrected 2026-09-27: it previously quoted "Pro $ 149.99 / month" from the 2026-09-08 capture, a price the vendor has since replaced; the conclusion is unchanged.)

How this gap gets closed →Can the deployment be insured, and is the customer indemnified?
