Assistly vs LeetCode Wizard: which do you need? (2026)
By The Assistly team ·
LeetCode Wizard is one of the three most-discussed coding-interview tools alongside Interview Coder and Cluely. It does exactly one thing: read a coding problem on screen and generate a solution. If that's all you need, it's focused. But it's coding-only, priced at around €49/month, and its stealth story has a catch. Here is how it compares to Assistly.

What LeetCode Wizard does well
It runs a model trained daily on the newest LeetCode problems, which reviewers say solves complex problems more reliably than generic ChatGPT, with clear step-by-step explanations. It's cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Linux) and works across many coding environments. For raw algorithm answers in a coding round, it's purpose-built.
Where users run into trouble
- It's a coding-answer tool rather than a copilot. It can't help in a behavioral round, a recruiter screen, a client meeting, or a sales call.
- The "undetectable" story has an asterisk. The vendor's own docs admit some screen-share software can bypass the desktop hide mode, and recommend running a "web view" on a separate phone or tablet for proctored interviews, which reviewers find awkward to read from.
- Limited tech behind the marketing. The creator described it on Hacker News as a "fairly simple ChatGPT/Claude wrapper."
- Price vs. legitimate prep. At
€49/month it's far pricier than LeetCode Premium ($13/mo) or NeetCode Pro (~$10/mo) if studying is your real goal.
How Assistly is different
- Make it yours, and harder to flag. Rename the app and swap its icon so it doesn't appear as a recognizable assistant in the process list or Activity Monitor, set custom knowledge modes for your own context, and bind your own hotkeys.
- Coding, system design, and conversation. Assistly has dedicated assist modes for coding and system-design rounds, and helps across behavioral interviews, meetings, and sales calls too. It follows the spoken conversation as well as the coding problem on screen.
- Persona-tuned answers. Built from your CV and notes, so guidance reflects your real background rather than generic model output.
- Native invisibility and your controls. OS-level screen-capture exclusion on macOS and Windows, with configurable hotkeys. There is no second phone to read answers from.
- Speaker-level context and notes. Tracks who said what and hands you a summary and action items after every session.
- A quarter of the price. $14.99/month unlimited.
A note on intent: Assistly is built to help you be prepared and present in real conversations, used within the rules of whatever interview, meeting, or call you're in. It is not built to misrepresent skills you don't have.
Which should you choose?
If you want nothing but raw LeetCode answers and accept the second-device workflow, LeetCode Wizard is narrowly built for that. If you want real-time help across every kind of conversation, interviews, meetings, and sales calls, that sounds like you and stays invisible at the OS level, Assistly is the better investment at a lower price.
