Prepped manual
Everything Prepped does, one subject a page.
Start here
Getting started
What Prepped is and how to install it. Five steps then take you from a new account to a first meeting with answers in the overlay.
The desktop app
How the desktop app runs on Windows and Mac from its first start to its updates, and where it keeps your data until you uninstall it.
The web app
Prepped in a browser uses the same account as the desktop app and can listen to a meeting in another tab. A few things still need the desktop app.
Before a meeting
Meetings and their settings
The kinds of meeting Prepped prepares for and what each one asks for, then how a meeting starts when you activate it and how it ends.
Preparing a meeting
Add material and the questions you expect. Before the meeting, Prepped learns your projects and finds the facts the meeting likely needs, each with its source.
Projects, repositories and portfolios
Give a meeting your own work, from project folders to portfolios, and see what Prepped reads from it.
Calendars and groups
Connect Google or Outlook so upcoming events become meetings, and keep the meetings of one series together so each one builds on the last.
Questions and practice
Rehearse your answers to common interview questions or to questions written for one job, hold a mock interview with an AI interviewer, and read the feedback.
The resume studio
Write a resume beside the page as it will print, compare it with a job description to see what it lacks, and export it once it is ready.
Use Prepped from Claude Code, Codex and others
Connect the AI coding tool you already use, such as Claude Code, and it can set up meetings in Prepped for you.
Job targets
Keep one job's rounds together, see which of its requirements your own material shows, and tell the same stories in every round.
During a meeting
Live answers and the overlay
How Prepped answers the other side's questions during a meeting, and how to use the overlay that shows each answer beside your meeting app.
Speech recognition and the transcript
How Prepped turns both sides of a meeting into text and tells the speakers apart, and how to correct names and words in the transcript.
The phone version and phone calls
Show the meeting running on your computer on your phone, or hold a meeting on the phone itself when an interview comes as a phone call.
After a meeting
Account and reference
Models, credits and limits
The AI models Prepped offers and what their answers cost in credits. Daily and per-meeting limits keep your spending where you want it.
Privacy and security
Where Prepped keeps your meetings and what it sends to AI providers to answer you. Everything it keeps can be deleted, on every device at once.
Shortcuts and settings
The desktop app's global keyboard shortcuts with their defaults, and how to find a setting by its tab or by searching for its name.
Your account, billing and support
Manage your Prepped account and follow what you spend on the Billing page. When something goes wrong, send feedback or write to the team.
Troubleshooting
Fixes for common problems, such as a missing transcript or answers that stop, and how to send the team a report when a fix does not help.
