Hone

What Hone is

Hone is a browser-based mock interview platform with a real-time voice AI interviewer. It supports spoken interview practice, live coding with a voice tutor, and system design exercises on a whiteboard. Interview tracks include behavioral questions, programming languages and frameworks, infrastructure, algorithms, AI and large language models, system design, and engineering leadership. Before most sessions, you can choose easy, medium, or hard difficulty. During an interview, the voice interviewer can ask follow-up questions and request more detail when an answer is vague. Afterward, Hone provides a score from 0 to 100, a written summary, strengths, and areas to improve, with feedback tied to moments in your answers. Hone runs in a web browser and requires no installation. Its Free plan includes five interviews each month on any track, with no card required. Pro costs $99 a month and includes unlimited interviews. Hone says it is made by Zyne AI.
