Product Overview

TheInterviews.ai is a voice-AI hiring platform. A candidate joins a live, spoken interview with a photo-real AI interviewer that asks role-relevant questions, listens, follows up, and scores the answers — then produces a credibility-graded Profile Card that recruiters can review and trust. The platform also supports human-to-human video interviews, AI resume optimization, and subscription billing.

What the product does​

In plain language: instead of a recruiter spending an hour on a first-round screen, the platform runs that conversation with an AI interviewer — by voice, in the browser, on the candidate's schedule. The AI asks questions tailored to the role, listens to spoken answers, asks follow-ups, and evaluates the responses. The output is structured: a transcript, scored feedback, an optional recording, and a Profile Card that summarizes how the candidate performed.

The same engine doubles as a practice tool: candidates can run mock interviews on their own to prepare for real ones, with the same feedback loop.

Who uses it​

Candidates​

Job seekers. They take AI voice interviews (either for a specific job or as practice), receive post-interview feedback and ratings, optimize their resume with the AI resume tools, and build a Profile Card from their interview performance. Candidates can also book sessions with vetted human interviewers.

Recruiters / Employers​

Companies hiring through the platform. Recruiters create job postings (the "JD funnel" — building a posting from a job description), invite or screen candidates through AI interviews, and review the results: transcripts, AI summaries, scored feedback, and recordings where the posting's recording policy allows it. Recruiters also run human-to-human video interviews with candidates directly on the platform.

Self-serve users​

Individuals using the platform on their own — primarily for practice interviews. Practice sessions use the standard interview engine and feedback loop without being tied to an employer's job posting.

Professional interviewers and admins​

Two supporting roles: vetted professional interviewers conduct paid human interview sessions and manage their availability; platform admins manage users, sessions, analytics, and platform configuration.

The interview lifecycle​

1. Posting and setup​

A recruiter creates a job posting through the JD funnel. The posting carries the configuration that governs candidate sessions — including the recording policy (see below). Self-serve practice sessions skip this step: the candidate starts an interview directly from their dashboard.

2. Candidate joins the session​

The candidate opens the interview in the browser. The live session runs over real-time audio/video (WebRTC), so all that's needed is a mic and a supported browser. The interviewer appears as a photo-real animated avatar that speaks the questions aloud, with subtitles streamed word-by-word in sync with the speech. If the avatar can't render on the candidate's device, the session degrades gracefully to a simpler visual ("orb") rather than failing.

3. The AI voice interview​

The candidate speaks; the platform transcribes the answer in real time, an LLM evaluates it and generates the next question, and the response is spoken back through neural text-to-speech. Question content is role-relevant — technical and theoretical questions, with follow-ups based on what the candidate actually said.

For technical roles, interviews can include coding: the candidate solves a problem in an in-browser code editor, and the code answer is scored alongside spoken answers. Some technical interviews blend formats — theoretical questions interleaved with short practical coding exercises in a single session, with the editor appearing only on the coding questions.

If a candidate goes silent, the session doesn't hang: the platform prompts and then moves on to the next question (or ends the interview if it was the last one).

Recording is server-side and policy-driven. Each job posting carries a recording policy:

  • OFF — the session is not recorded.
  • OPTIONAL — recording is available; the candidate sees a consent notice and can stop recording.
  • MANDATORY — recording is automatic; the candidate acknowledges it once before the session and sees a persistent indicator.

Self-serve practice sessions default to OPTIONAL. Recordings are processed after the session and attached to the interview results.

5. Feedback and results​

After the session, the platform generates a post-interview report: per-answer evaluation, ratings, and written feedback, with the transcript and any recording attached. Candidates can review their feedback in the app and export it as a PDF. Recruiters see the structured results for their postings.

6. Profile Card​

Interview performance rolls up into the candidate's Profile Card — a shareable summary with scores computed from completed interviews. It is generated on demand when the candidate opens it, and recruiters use it as a credibility-graded snapshot of the candidate.

  • Human video interviews — scheduled, in-app WebRTC meetings between people (recruiter–candidate, or candidate–professional interviewer), with chat, screen sharing, host controls, optional server-side recording, and AI-generated transcripts and summaries.
  • Feedback system — post-interview ratings and written feedback across interview types.
  • Subscriptions — free and paid plans for individuals and companies; what a user can do (and how much of it) is governed by their plan's entitlements. Pricing is on the public site: https://www.theinterviews.ai
