Show HN: Sagetalk.ai – I Built an AI Tool to Practice Job Interviews

Hi HN, A few months ago, I lost my job. It wasn’t just a blow to my finances—it shook my confidence. I had to start interviewing for software engineering roles, but the process felt overwhelming. How do you practice for interviews when you don’t have someone to coach you, and you’re unsure if your answers are even good? I tried using existing tools, but they didn’t really click with me. They either felt too generic or just didn’t simulate the pressure of a real interview. That’s when I decided to build something myself. What started as a quick script to help organize my thoughts has turned into Sagetalk.ai. It’s an AI tool that helps you practice job interviews in a way that feels dynamic and interactive. Here’s what it does: It creates mock interview questions based on your role and industry. As interviewer ask questions, it listens and provides live suggestions for improvement. After each session, it gives feedback on things like tone, clarity, and whether your response really answers the question. It’s not perfect. There are still rough edges, and I’m figuring out how to make it more useful. But for me, it made a difference. Practicing with this tool helped me feel more confident walking into real interviews, and I think it might help others too. I’m sharing this here because I know many of you have faced similar challenges, whether as candidates or as builders trying to solve your own problems. I’d love for you to try it and tell me what you think—what works, what doesn’t, what could be better. You can check it out at sagetalk.ai Thanks for taking the time to read this. I’m here to answer questions or just chat about job hunting or building projects like this. Cheers
