The platform includes 170 video lessons across 12 career-stage and interview categories, plus an interactive Answer Builder for structuring responses. Its mobile apps support lessons, practice, assignments, progress tracking, and VideoAI feedback when enabled. Resume uploads and resume scanning for ResumeAI feedback require desktop access. Big Interview serves job seekers, career centers, education teams, workforce agencies, returning citizens, and veterans. Organizational accounts can register by code or email, or use single sign-on; the platform documents Canvas integration using LTI. The Interview BootCamp plan costs $39 a month on a 30-day subscription. Interview Accelerator costs $99, paid once for a 3-month subscription, while Interview Pro costs $299, paid once for lifetime access. Organizational plans have custom pricing. Big Interview says it does not extract biometric identifiers from practice recordings.

Orato is a mobile public-speaking practice app for rehearsing aloud and receiving AI feedback after a session. It supports presentations, meetings, interviews, pitches, speeches, and impromptu speaking. Feedback covers filler words, pauses, pace, clarity, structure, delivery, and context, with coaching notes on voice modulation and related delivery traits. Bite-sized lessons address pausing with intent, opening a talk, handling off-script questions, and closing a pitch. The app is available on iOS and Android through the App Store and Google Play. Its Free plan costs nothing and includes three AI practice sessions monthly, filler-word detection, pace and timing feedback, a speech topics library, and a Toastmasters speech timer. Premium costs $15 a month and adds unlimited AI practice and a broader feedback suite. Subscriptions renew automatically, and prices may vary by region. Orato was formerly SpeakUp and is not a medical product.
