Remote Buddy

Remote Buddy lets a trusted person follow your session from their browser on another device, using a short-lived pairing code you control.

A second pair of eyes, on another screen.

Preparing with a mentor, or want your session on a second device? Remote Buddy lets someone you trust follow your Ask Agents session from a web browser.

You start the pairing from the desktop app and share a code. You approve the connection, and you can end it at any time. Sessions are time-limited and end when your interview ends.
