One rate, every feature included
Simple, transparent pricing
GirGit AI follows a single-rate pricing model of ₹5 per minute of interview time. There are no feature restrictions, subscription tiers or long-term commitments. Every paid minute includes real-time transcription, contextual interview guidance, invisible overlays and coding support.
To be explicit about the most common confusion: GirGit AI does not have subscription plans. There is no Basic, Pro or Enterprise tier, no monthly fee and no annual commitment — ₹5 per minute (~$0.06/min) is the entire price list. You pay only for the minutes you actually use, and you stop paying the second you stop using it.

What a typical interview costs
| Interview length | Cost at ₹5/min |
|---|---|
| 10 minutes (free trial) | ₹0 |
| 15-minute screening interview | ₹75 |
| 30-minute interview round | ₹150 |
| 45-minute technical interview | ₹225 |
| 60-minute system design interview | ₹300 |
Why pay-per-minute works better
Interview preparation and job searches usually happen in short cycles rather than all year round. As an affordable AI interview assistant, GirGit AI lets you pay only when interviews are scheduled, eliminating recurring subscription costs during inactive periods.
Most candidates do not interview every week of every month. A real job hunt is bursty — three weeks of intense interviewing, then nothing for months until you are looking again. Subscription pricing punishes exactly that pattern.
- No monthly drip when you are not actively interviewing.
- No "I forgot to cancel" charges three months after you took the offer.
- No tier guessing — you do not need to predict whether you will be a "Pro" or "Enterprise" user before your first call.
- No auto-renewal, because there is nothing to renew.
Free trial included — every account starts with 10 complimentary minutes. Add more as needed, with no monthly renewals or recurring billing.
Payment methods
Pay through UPI apps including Google Pay, PhonePe, BHIM and Paytm, as well as debit and credit cards. Payments are processed securely, with no card stored for automatic renewals.
Worked examples — light, active and intense loads
Use whichever scenario matches your actual interview pipeline.
| Load profile | Interviews / month | Average length | Total minutes | Estimated cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Light — exploring | 1–2 | 30 min | ~60 min | ~₹300 (~$3.60) |
| Active — job hunting | 4–6 | 35 min | ~175 min | ~₹875 (~$10.50) |
| Intense — final crunch | 10–12 | 40 min | ~440 min | ~₹2,200 (~$26) |
Even the intense scenario lands well below a single month of most subscription competitors — and you only paid because you actually interviewed twelve times.
How GirGit AI compares to subscription tools
Here is the honest math against the major paid alternatives.
| Tool | Headline price | Effective $ / min (typical use) | GirGit AI savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| LockedIn AI | $69.99 / mo (or $49.99 / mo quarterly) | ~$0.17–$0.39 / min | ~4–10× cheaper |
| Final Round AI | $149 / mo or $500 / yr upfront | Highly variable; documented billing disputes | ~95% cheaper |
| Parakeet AI | $29.50 for 3 credits (1 credit = 1 interview, any length) | Penalizes short interviews | No credit waste |
| Cluely | $20 / mo | Cheap, but 2025 breach exposed 83k+ user transcripts | Same-tier price, clean record |
| Sensei AI | $89 / mo or $288 / yr | Higher; nice "AI Playground" | Far cheaper for actual interviews |
Pricing was verified in May 2026 and changes frequently — always confirm current rates on each tool's official site before purchasing.
How to top up
- Open the billing section in your GirGit AI dashboard.
- Pick any amount — many candidates start with ₹150 for one full 30-minute round.
- Pay via UPI (instant), debit card, or credit card.
- Your balance shows up immediately. Use it whenever — there is no expiry clock, because there is no subscription.
A simple budgeting rule
If you have N interviews scheduled in the next two weeks, top up N × ₹150. That covers a 30-minute round each, with comfortable headroom. Anything left over rolls forward to your next interview cycle, whenever that is.
The fairest interview-tool pricing is the one that disappears when you do not need it — and GirGit AI is built around exactly that.
