CueNova pricing
Access is sold as passes measured in listening minutes rather than as a long subscription, because job searches are bursty — a few intense weeks and then nothing. Creating an account is free and needs no payment method. The rates below are Founding Member launch pricing; the regular prices they replace are shown alongside so you can see what the launch rate is against.
Plans
Prices in INR. Payment is handled through Razorpay, so cards, UPI and netbanking are supported.

What every plan includes
Real-time answers from live audio
System-audio capture with question detection, streaming a structured answer as the question is recognised.
Screen capture for on-screen questions
Reads coding and data prompts off a shared editor, which is how technical questions usually arrive.
Resume and job-description grounding
Answers reach for your own projects and the language of the role you applied to.
Stealth Mode on supported paths
OS-level capture exclusion for the overlay on supported Windows screen-share paths.
Session history
Every question and answer saved to your account so you can review what caught you out.
How minutes are counted
Minutes are listening minutes — time the app is actively listening to a call, not wall-clock time since you opened it. A 45-minute interview where you listen throughout consumes roughly 45 minutes. Starting the app, setting up your profile, reading a past session transcript and browsing your account cost nothing.
Practice rounds draw from the same balance, and that is intentional rather than an oversight. The practice round is what makes the real one work: it is where you find out that your Bluetooth headset takes the call audio off the system output, or that your conferencing client updated and changed how it captures the screen. Discovering either of those in a real interview is expensive in a way that minutes are not.
The Interview Pass is sized for a single interview loop. Job Hunt Pro is sized for an active search running several processes at once. CueNova Elite runs until you receive an offer, under a fair usage policy.
Which plan fits your search
The right plan is a question about the shape of your search rather than about features — every plan includes the full product.
One company, one loop
Interview Pass. 60 Minutes over 7 days covers a screening call, a technical round and a final conversation, with enough left over for a practice round beforehand.
An active search across several companies
Job Hunt Pro. 300 Minutes over 30 days is built for the month where four processes overlap and you are interviewing twice a week.
A long search with no fixed end date
CueNova Elite. Unlimited sessions under a fair usage policy, valid until you receive an offer — the option that removes the arithmetic from a search that may run for months.

Create the free account first. You can add your resume, set up your profile and see the desktop app before deciding anything, and no payment method is required to do it.
Why passes rather than a subscription
Interview tooling has an unusual usage shape. You need it intensely for two to six weeks, and then — if it worked — you do not need it again for two years. A monthly subscription monetises the months after you stopped using it, which is why almost every product in this category defaults to one.
Passes match the real shape instead: buy the block that covers your search, use it, and stop. There is no recurring charge to remember to cancel once you have signed the offer, and nothing renews quietly in the background.
The launch prices above are Founding Member rates. The regular price column is what each pass is scheduled to cost once the launch period ends, shown so the discount is verifiable rather than asserted.
Frequently asked questions
- Is there a free plan?
- Creating an account is free and no payment method is required to sign up, so you can set up your profile, add your resume and see the product before paying. Live interview minutes are purchased as a pass.
- Do unused minutes roll over?
- Each pass carries its own validity window, shown in the table above. Minutes are available within that window.
- What payment methods are supported?
- Payment runs through Razorpay, which supports cards, UPI and netbanking. Current prices are shown in your account.
- Is this a subscription I need to cancel?
- Passes are one-off purchases with a fixed validity rather than a recurring contract, so there is nothing to cancel at the end of a search.
