Try to negotiate your salary with AI

Great point about accessibility. We're definitely committed to making Prepin inclusive for all users. TDD support is one option, and we're also exploring text-based interview modes and real-time transcription features. The goal is to ensure everyone can practice and improve their interview skills regardless of hearing ability. Thanks for bringing this up - accessibility should be built in from the start, not an afterthought.

You raise excellent points about GDPR compliance. Just to clarify - Prepin is a mock interview practice platform, not an actual hiring tool. Users practice with our AI to prepare for real interviews, so no employment decisions are being made. That said, you're absolutely right about data processing concerns - we still handle voice, PII, etc. during practice sessions. We'd definitely benefit from your expertise on proper GDPR compliance for AI-powered interview practice tools.

Would love to discuss the regulatory landscape further - please reach out to [email protected] when you have a chance.

I'd be happy to discuss this further and learn from your experience. Please reach out to me at [email protected] and we can schedule a short call to chat about navigating EU market entry properly. Really appreciate the warning!

Thanks for trying Prepin!

That 20-second hang bug has actually been resolved since you tested it. If you'd like to give it another shot, you should get the full smooth experience now - no more awkward silences. Really appreciate the feedback about it being more professional than most screening calls, that's exactly what we're going for!

Enter your phone number, get called in 30 seconds for a 2–3 minute AI-powered screening interview.

Current MVP scope Right now it handles general screening questions and generates simple reports. We’re validating demand before building:

Technical screening libraries

ATS integrations

Custom question sets per role or company

Multi-language support

Who we’re looking for We’d love feedback from recruiters and startup founders who are (or soon will be) running hiring processes.

Request for feedback Please actually try the call first—I know it sounds gimmicky, but the voice quality will surprise you. Then let us know:

Did it feel natural?

Would you be comfortable being screened this way?

If you hire, could you see your team using this?

What needs improvement?

To see the full recruiter dashboard, leave your email on the page and we’ll send you the demo.

This is just an MVP to test the concept. Curious what HN thinks—future of recruiting or unnecessary automation?
