Frequently asked questions
What Rehearsal Room is, and how it works.
Rehearsal Room is an iPhone app for practicing high-stakes interviews out loud against an AI counterpart that pushes back — then reading a forensic debrief on the exact moment you slipped. It also pulls job listings together from across multiple platforms, so the role you're chasing and the rehearsal for it live in one place. The answers below cover what it does, what it doesn't, and how it handles your data.
The basics
What it is
What is Rehearsal Room?
It's an interview-practice app for iPhone. You rehearse the interview out loud against an AI counterpart that listens and pushes back, then get a forensic debrief on where your answer slipped — message clarity, delivery composure, how you handled the pushback, whether you recovered. The whole idea is to take the reps somewhere they don't cost you, so the real interview isn't your first attempt.
What are the two halves of the app?
Find the role, then rehearse for it. The first half pulls job listings together from across multiple job platforms, so you're browsing openings in one feed instead of bouncing between five tabs. The second half is the practice: pick a role, run the interview for it out loud against the AI, and read the debrief. The job you're chasing and the rehearsal for it live in the same place.
Who is it for?
Anyone walking into an interview that matters and wanting to have had the conversation once before it counts — job seekers across roles, people returning to the workforce, and anyone whose nerves tend to scramble a good answer in the room. The guides cover specific cases like nursing and teaching interviews.

Does it record you?
Does Rehearsal Room store my recordings?
No. The debrief is sharp because the rep is real — not because we hold onto it. You speak, you get the verdict and the seam to fix, and the audio doesn't have to live on a server to make that happen. It's a forensic debrief without keeping the recording. See how we handle your data for the specifics.
If you don't keep the recording, how is the feedback any good?
The analysis happens on the rep itself, in the moment — the debrief names the exact turn and dimension that slipped while it's still warm. What you keep is the verdict and the shape of how you're improving across sessions, not an archive of audio. The value is in what the rep taught you, which is the part worth carrying into the next one.
The honest line
Is this cheating?
Is Rehearsal Room a live-interview copilot?
No — it's the opposite. A live copilot sits beside you during the real interview and feeds you answers to read off a screen. Rehearsal Room is practice before the interview: you build the skill in private reps so you walk in ready, not fed. Nothing runs during your actual interview. You crash here so you don't crash there.
So how is that different from "cheating" tools?
The cheating tools optimize for getting through one interview by feeding you live answers — which many employers treat as undisclosed assistance, and which builds no durable skill. Rehearsal Room is rehearsal: you get good at the talk by having the talk, ahead of time, and the skill is yours to keep. The research is clear that rehearsal with feedback is what actually changes interview outcomes — see the evidence.
The product
How the debrief works
What do I actually get after a rep?
The second the rep ends, you get the verdict — not a vibe. The exact moment the room shifted, which dimension slipped (message clarity, delivery composure, how you handled the pushback, whether you recovered), the line worth keeping, and the one seam to fix next. You read it while the rep is still warm and carry the fix straight into the next one.
Does it get better the more I use it?
That's the design. You carry the seam from the last debrief into the next rep, and over sessions your shape comes into focus — where you're getting stronger and what still slips when it counts. One good rep fades; repeated reps stick. The app is built for the second, not a single perfect take.
Can I practice for a specific role or question type?
You set who's on the other side and what they want, then run the interview for that. For drilling behavioral questions, the STAR shape is a useful structure to rehearse. Whether the app auto-tailors questions to a specific pasted job description is a product detail we'd point you to the App Store listing to confirm.
Price & platforms
What it costs and where it runs
How much does it cost?
$9.99 a month for 30 reps. Simple, transparent, monthly — no opaque "starting at" rate that's really an annual prepay, and no separate add-on lines. You can download the app and see the current terms on the App Store.
What platforms is it on?
iPhone, running iOS 17 or later. It's a native iOS app — not a web tool you run in a browser tab — and it's live on the App Store now.
Is there an Android or web version?
Today it's iPhone-only. If that changes, the App Store listing and this page are where it'll be noted.
Compared to others
How it's different from Yoodli, Final Round AI, and others
How is it different from Yoodli?
Yoodli is a broad communication and speech coach — interview prep is one of many use cases, and much of its feedback centers on delivery metrics like filler words and pacing across web, mobile, and desktop. Rehearsal Room is interview-practice-first on iPhone, with a forensic debrief on the moment and seam rather than a running speech-metrics dashboard, and it doesn't keep your recordings. See the full comparison.
How is it different from Final Round AI?
Final Round AI's headline product is a real-time, "undetectable" copilot that feeds you answers during the live interview, alongside mock practice, with pricing commonly cited in the $60–148/mo range. Rehearsal Room does only the honest half — practice before the interview — at a flat $9.99/mo, and runs nothing during your actual interview. The comparison page lays the features out side by side.
Where can I see a full side-by-side?
The comparison page puts Rehearsal Room next to Yoodli, Final Round AI, Big Interview, Huru, and interviews.chat on platform, pricing, recordings, and the practice-vs-copilot line — factually, using each tool's published details.
