How Talview works
Talview's live interviews run on its own interview platform. Its pages describe a check that "Continuously confirms the same person stays on camera throughout the session", voice cross-checks against a verified baseline, a "Virtual camera detected" alert, and secondary camera monitoring for its deepfake scans.
What Verified Call does
Verified Call checks the person on a video call, before and during it, without joining. The host turns it on for guests in Google Calendar. The candidate gets an email link that opens 10 minutes before the call, agrees on a consent screen and runs the Verified Call app for about five minutes of checks. During the call the app keeps checking for hidden AI tools, camera software and a change of face. The host sees a badge next to each person in the call: Verified, Needs a look with the proof, or Can't confirm.
