Everything you need to know about InterviewMate
Yes, InterviewMate provides real-time AI coaching during your actual interview. It listens to the interviewer's questions and instantly suggests personalized answers while you're on Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet.
InterviewMate achieves <1 second latency for transcription using Deepgram Flux, with complete AI-generated answers appearing within 2-3 seconds of the interviewer finishing their question.
InterviewMate runs in a separate browser window/tab and doesn't interfere with your video call. The AI suggestions appear on your screen only. However, users are responsible for following their company's interview policies.
Currently InterviewMate is optimized for desktop browsers (Chrome, Edge, Safari). Mobile support is planned for future releases.
InterviewMate uses Deepgram Flux for real-time speech-to-text (<500ms latency) and Claude 3.5 Sonnet for intelligent answer generation. This combination delivers the fastest and highest quality responses.
InterviewMate uses RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) with Qdrant vector database. You can add your resume, STAR stories, and prepared Q&A pairs. When answering questions, the AI semantically searches your background and incorporates specific details from your experience.
The AI will generate answers with placeholders like [your specific project] or [company name] that you can fill in with your own details. You'll see a tip suggesting the AI Q&A Generator feature for fully personalized answers.
We eliminated threading bottlenecks by using fully async I/O architecture. Previous systems used background threads with 5-second timeouts. Our async implementation uses direct await calls, removing timeout issues entirely.
Each interview session consumes 1 credit when you press 'Start Recording'. Credits never expire and you can use them whenever you have an interview. No subscriptions - pay only for what you use.
All purchases are final. We offer a strict no-refund policy for digital products. However, refunds may be considered for technical issues (system failures, duplicate charges, unauthorized transactions) if reported within 7 days.
Interview credits are consumed per session (1 credit = 1 interview). One-time features like AI Q&A Generator are purchased once and available forever.
No, credits never expire. Buy them now and use them whenever you have interviews - next week, next month, or next year.
No. All audio is processed in real-time and immediately discarded. We use streaming transcription - audio never touches our servers or gets stored anywhere.
Yes. We use strict user_id filtering in our vector database (Qdrant) to ensure complete data isolation. Your resume, STAR stories, and Q&A pairs are never shared with other users.
We store: (1) Your account information (email, name), (2) Your uploaded background (resume, STAR stories, Q&A pairs), (3) Interview session metadata (timestamp, credits used). We do NOT store audio recordings or transcripts.
InterviewMate works for any interview type: job interviews (tech, consulting, finance), PhD defenses and academic committee meetings, visa and immigration interviews, school admissions (MBA, graduate, undergraduate). Any video call where you need real-time AI assistance.
