AI DSA & coding interviewer

Arrays to dynamic programming — practice thinking out loud on coding problems, the part most candidates never rehearse.

Free 10-minute interview with a full report. Paid plans run full-length sessions.

Data Structures & Algorithms interview questions you might get

A sample of the starting questions. The live interview follows up on your answer, so no two sessions go the same way.

  1. Find the length of the longest substring without repeating characters.

    What it tests: Sliding window.

  2. Given a grid of 1s and 0s, count the islands. Then do it without modifying the grid.

    What it tests: Graph traversal with a constraint.

  3. Merge k sorted lists. What's the complexity of your approach?

    What it tests: Heaps and analysis.

  4. Count the ways to climb n stairs taking 1 or 2 steps. Now make it O(1) space.

    What it tests: DP and optimization.

  5. Check whether a binary tree is a valid binary search tree.

    What it tests: Recursion with bounds.

How a session works

About 20–30 minutes from setup to report. End any time and you still get feedback on what was covered.

  1. Set your target

    Pick a role, level and stack. Add a job description or your resume if you want questions about your real projects.

  2. Answer live

    Speak or type. The interviewer follows up on thin answers, raises the difficulty when you're doing well and switches to code when it fits.

  3. Read the notes

    A report scores every competency, quotes the answers that cost you, and gives you a prep plan for the next session.

A report that quotes you, not a pat on the back

Every score links back to something you actually said.

  • Competency scores

    Weighted to the role you picked, so a system design gap counts more for a senior backend role than for a frontend junior.

  • STAR check on every story

    See which part of each behavioral answer was missing — usually the Result.

  • How you sounded

    Filler words, hedging, "I" versus "we", and whether you cited real numbers — measured from your words, and compared between the first and second half of the interview.

  • A prep plan

    The two or three things to practice next, and a skill graph that tracks them across sessions.

Questions

How is this different from a problem site?

Problem sites check whether your code passes. Interviews grade how you think and communicate. This scores your explanation, approach and code together.

Which languages can I use?

Any mainstream language. Name it in the setup.

Can I get hints?

Yes, and the report shows where you used them.

Is it free to try?

Yes. Each month you get a free interview of up to 10 minutes with its scored report. Paid plans add full-length interviews, every track and the full 360 report.
