Practice in Coach.
Perform in Assist.
SideSense Pro is the AI copilot that trains you before the interview and stays on your side during the real meeting — with one growth graph tracking both.
Windows-only at launch · local-first · your data never leaves your machine
Nothing is being captured. Start a session and SideSense will listen, detect questions, and draft answers in real time.
One app, two sides of the same skill
Every session — mock or real — feeds the same growth dashboard, so the practice you put in actually shows up when it counts.
Mock interviews that feel real
The AI interviewer asks questions from your actual resume and the job description, drills into your answers with follow-ups, and scores you on a rubric — never on similarity to some "model answer."
- Resume + job description → tailored questions and a resume↔JD match score
- Fresher screen → Standard round → Senior panel → Bar-raiser difficulty
- Rubric scoring: relevance, structure, specificity, impact — plus STAR detection
- Filler words, pace, and (opt-in) camera coaching on eye contact & delivery
- Personal answer bank + "practice these again" for your weakest questions
Coach is interview practice — never presented as live interview assistance.
A copilot for real calls
SideSense listens to both sides of a live meeting or interview, detects real questions the moment they're asked, and drafts an answer instantly — grounded in your resume when it matters.
- Two-channel listening (mic + system audio) with real-time question detection
- Instant, first-person answer drafts — never invents experience you don't have
- Post-call brief: summary, decisions, and your own commitments as action items
- Self-only delivery coaching: talk-time ratio, fillers, interruptions, participation
- Live class mode adapts labels for teaching vs. attending automatically
Assist scores you, never the other participants — coaching, not surveillance.
Built for the full loop, not just the demo moment
Everything runs locally by default. Nothing leaves your machine unless you choose a cloud model.
Growth dashboard
Interview score history, filler-rate trends, and weak-topic detection across every session — coach and assist, in one graph.
Question bank
Save and reuse answers to questions you've already nailed; SideSense auto-serves a match the next time it comes up live.
Any model, your choice
Ollama for free, fully local answers, or bring your own Claude, GPT, or OpenRouter key — swap providers per session.
Near-human voice
Kokoro runs locally as the free default TTS voice; opt into ElevenLabs with your own key for premium narration.
Camera coaching
Opt-in, local-only eye-contact and delivery cues during mock interviews. Never emotion inference, never in Assist mode.
Reports & exports
Markdown exports are always free. Upgrade for PDF/DOCX report cards, Notion & Google Docs, and follow-up email drafts.
