Our story

About InterviewAce AI

We are building the platform we wish existed when we were students — one where every graduate in India can walk into an interview room with real confidence, regardless of their college tier, their city, or how many “connections” they have.

Founded in 2024

The gap between talent and opportunity

InterviewAce AI was founded in 2024 by a team of IIT and IIM alumni, engineers, and former recruiters who had collectively sat through thousands of campus interviews. The pattern they saw was painful and predictable: brilliant students — people who could solve complex problems and build impressive projects — crumbling the moment a microphone turned on and a stranger asked, “Tell me about yourself.”

These students did not lack talent. They lacked practice. They lacked honest, specific feedback. And most of all, they lacked access — because the best coaching was locked behind expensive urban centres, and the only “practice” most students got was rehearsing answers alone in front of a mirror.

We built InterviewAce AI to close that gap. The gap between what you know and how you present it. The gap between a tier-2 city and a metro. The gap between talent and opportunity — which, more often than people admit, is just confidence and preparation. Today, a student in Jaipur or Coimbatore gets the same quality of AI interview practice and feedback as someone prepping with an expensive career coach in Bangalore. That is the product. That is the mission.

What we stand for

Our core values

These are not wall posters. They are the decisions we make every day when building this product.

Accessibility First

World-class interview prep should not be a privilege of metro-city students or those who can afford expensive coaching. We start at zero rupees because access matters more than revenue.

Brutal Honesty in Feedback

Your friends will say your answer was "fine." We will not. Our AI scores you across 10 metrics and tells you exactly where you lost the interviewer. That honesty is a feature, not a bug.

Privacy by Default

Your resumes, recordings, and transcripts are encrypted and visible only to you. We never sell your data or share it with employers. Your preparation is your business alone.

Built by Recruiters, for Candidates

Our team includes former HR heads and hiring managers from companies like Google, Infosys, and McKinsey. We know what the other side of the table looks for because we have sat there.
