AI Interview Assistant

An AI interview assistant that listens with you, in real time

Smallbird is a real-time AI interview assistant. It follows your interview as it happens, understands the context you've given it, and helps you respond well — without ever showing up on a screen share.

How it works

Grounded in your CV and the job description

Before the interview, you load in your resume and the job posting. Every response Smallbird surfaces is shaped by that context, not generic advice.

Local, real-time transcription

Speech-to-text runs on your machine as the interview happens, so there's no lag waiting for audio to round-trip to a server before Smallbird can respond.

Assistance while the question is still being asked

Smallbird follows the conversation live and surfaces a relevant response as the question comes in — not a pre-written script you rehearsed the night before.

Invisible on screen share

Smallbird's window is separate from the call itself. If you share your screen, the interviewer sees a normal call — never your overlay.

Who it's for

Smallbird is built for candidates who want support during the interview itself, not just before it. That includes job seekers preparing for technical, behavioral, or general interviews, and anyone who freezes up under live questioning despite knowing the material cold. It's grounded in your own CV and the job description, so the assistance stays specific to the role you're actually interviewing for.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly is an AI interview assistant?

It's software that listens to your interview in real time and helps you respond — as distinct from interview-prep tools you use before the interview. Smallbird works during the conversation itself, using context you've given it (your CV, the job description) rather than generic answers.

Can the interviewer see Smallbird?

No. Smallbird runs as a separate overlay window on your screen, distinct from your video call window. If you share your screen or your camera is on, what's visible to others is a normal call — the overlay isn't part of what gets shared.

Does it work on Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams?

Yes. Smallbird works as an overlay on top of whatever call software you're already using — Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, GoToMeeting, and others — rather than a platform-specific plugin.

How much does Smallbird cost?

Smallbird has a free plan (10 minutes a month) and paid plans starting at ₹199 for a one-time interview pass. See full pricing for details.
