One-time passes · no auto-renewal
A job search is a few weeks long, not a subscription you keep paying for. One interview costs $9.90 — the Starter Pack, 60 minutes that never expire. For a run of interviews, a Pass is $24.90 for 7 days, $39.90 for 30 days or $69.90 for 90 days, paid once. There is no auto-renewal and nothing to cancel.

AceRound is sold as one-time passes and one-time credit packs, never as a subscription. A single interview is covered by the $9.90 Starter Pack (60 minutes), enough for a full 45-minute round. A 7-Day Pass is $24.90, a 30-day Monthly Pass is $39.90 and a 90-day Season Pass is $69.90. The larger credit packs cost $29.90 for 240 minutes and $59.90 for 600 minutes, and the minutes do not expire.
Nothing renews automatically, so there is no cancellation step and no surprise charge after the interview. The Monthly Pass works out to $1.33 a day; the Season Pass to $0.78 a day.
A new account gets 30 minutes of live help and one mock interview without a credit card, which is enough to hear the transcript quality on your own audio before paying. Refunds follow the refund policy: full refund within 7 days on an unused purchase, partial for the unused portion after that.
Pick the length of your interview window, not a billing cycle. Sessions are not metered while a Pass is active.
Passes start when you buy them and expire at the time shown in your account. A single live session is capped at 5 hours.
For a search that drags on for months, buy minutes instead of days. Minutes are consumed only while a session is running, and the balance stays there until you use it.
A Pass unlocks every feature for its whole duration — there is no separate add-on for assessments or for a second language.
One client for the whole loop: real-time help in a live interview, practice rounds with feedback afterwards, and the assessment copilot for HackerRank, CodeSignal, Codility and take-homes.
While a Pass is active, sessions are not deducted minute by minute. A single session is capped at 5 hours, which covers a normal interview loop day; buy a new Pass only when the period ends.
English, Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Vietnamese, Russian and Arabic. The answer comes back in the language the question was asked in, and you can switch mid-interview with one click.
AceRound runs as its own desktop window and is excluded from screen sharing, window capture and screenshots on Windows and macOS. Test your exact share mode with a mock interview before the real one.
The other figures here were read off each vendor's own pricing page — Final Round AI on 2 November 2026, LockedIn AI on 26 October 2026. They change; the date is the point.
| AceRound | Final Round AI | LockedIn AI | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One month of live help | $39.90 paid once | $150/month, billed monthly | $54.99/month, billed monthly |

Final Round AI's $25/month is its Yearly plan, paid as one charge of about $300. On 2 November 2026 the month-to-month plan was $150, and quarterly was $83.33/month billed as about $250. Its list changes often: a week earlier it showed $125/month billed every two months.
A new account gets 30 minutes of live help and one mock interview with no credit card. That is enough to check the transcript quality on your own microphone and confirm the overlay stays out of your share mode — not enough for a full 45-minute interview, which is what the $9.90 Starter Pack (60 minutes) is for.
A single interview costs $9.90 with the Starter Pack: 60 minutes that never expire, enough for a full 45-minute round. A 7-Day Pass is $24.90, a 30-day Monthly Pass is $39.90 and a 90-day Season Pass is $69.90, each paid once. Larger credit packs are $29.90 for 240 minutes and $59.90 for 600 minutes. Prices on this page are in USD; checkout shows the amount in your local currency.
No. Every Pass and every credit pack is a one-time purchase. Nothing renews automatically, so there is no cancellation step and no charge after the period ends.
Yes — 30 minutes of live help and one mock interview on a new account, with no credit card. It is meant for checking transcript quality and whether the answer window stays out of your screen-sharing mode.
A Pass starts at purchase by default. Tick "Interview not today? Activate later" above the Passes before you pay and the Pass waits in your account until you activate it, so the days start only when you are ready, for example right before your interview. Once running, a Pass expires at the end of the period shown in your account; unused days do not carry into a later search. Credit-pack minutes never expire and are taken only while a session is running.
Yes, under the refund policy: a full refund on an unused purchase if you ask within 7 days, and a partial refund for the unused portion after that. The policy page lists every condition; requests go to [email protected].
A 30-day Monthly Pass is $39.90 paid once. Final Round AI's plan list, checked on 2 November 2026, was $150/month billed monthly, $83.33/month billed quarterly (about $250 a charge), or $25/month only as one annual payment of about $300. LockedIn AI lists $54.99/month billed monthly, or $39.99/month billed every three months. Both of those renew until you cancel; a Pass ends on its own, and a $9.90 Starter Pack covers a single interview.
Because an interview search has an end date. A Pass covers a fixed window — $24.90 for a week, $39.90 for a month, $69.90 for a season — and stops on its own, instead of billing every month until you remember to cancel.
