Terms of Use

Last updated 29 September 2026

InterviewReadyNot is free, and these terms are in plain language. By pressing Start on an interview, or otherwise using interviewreadynot.com (the "Service"), you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service. The Privacy Notice explains how we handle your data.

Who you're agreeing with

InterviewReadyNot isn't a company. It's run by Kiarash Adl, an individual in Texas doing business as InterviewReadyNot. Where these terms say "InterviewReadyNot," "we," or "us" (in "No warranty" and "Limit of liability" below, and anywhere else), it means him. The promises here are his promises.

We may later form a company to run InterviewReadyNot and move the Service to it. If we do, we'll update these terms to name it, and that company will take over our side of them.

Who can use it

You must be 18 or older and able to make a binding contract where you live. If you run a campaign for a school or group, you confirm you're allowed to.

What the Service is

A free AI mock interview. You answer six questions out loud in your browser. Your answers are turned into a transcript, and five AI judges, using models from Anthropic, OpenAI and xAI run on Microsoft Azure through Microsoft Foundry, score it. Everyone who finishes gets a coach report.

To keep it available to everyone, you can take up to 7 interviews a day from one network. We may change that limit, the questions, the judges, or anything else about the Service, and we may pause or stop it, at any time. There is also an overall daily limit for the whole site.

AI feedback, not advice

Every score, verdict and coach report is generated by AI. It's automated practice feedback. It can be wrong, inconsistent or biased, and the same answers can score differently on another attempt. It isn't career, hiring, legal or any other professional advice, and it isn't used for recruitment, hiring or educational assessment. We don't promise it will help you get a job.

This isn't a job application. No employer is involved, and nobody makes a hiring decision from it.

Passing and public recognition

A pass means two things happened. All five AI judges approved your transcript under the rule published on the site (in short: all five judges pass you on each of three runs, every criterion 4 or higher from every judge, an overall average of at least 4.5, judges within one point of each other on every criterion, no attempt to game the panel, and every quote matching your words). Then we checked the transcript ourselves and signed it off.

What a pass earns is public recognition. With your consent, we publish your name and the transcript that earned it. You can withdraw that consent at any time by emailing privacy@interviewreadynot.com, and we'll take it down within a reasonable time.

• There's no prize, money, gift or job offer.
• Nothing costs anything, and nothing requires a purchase.
• It isn't a contest, sweepstakes or drawing. A pass depends on meeting the published rule, not on beating anyone or on luck.
• We may decline to sign off a pass, or take recognition down, if we reasonably believe the result involved gaming, cheating, impersonation, or reading prepared or AI-written answers. You can ask us to take another look at any verdict, but to the extent the law allows, the final decision is ours.

The School Challenge

• Official campaigns are claimed with a verified school email, one per school.
• Unofficial campaigns are for clubs, cohorts and similar groups. They may not use a school's official name, or any name that suggests a school runs or endorses them.
• Only interviews from verified emails count toward a campaign, and a campaign tied to a school counts only verified emails at that school.
• We may edit school data, transfer or delete campaigns, and remove names, blurbs or other content, with or without notice.

The School Challenge board shows participation and results. It isn't a contest, and no campaign, school or person gets a prize. A campaign doesn't mean a school, employer or anyone else endorses the Service or you.

Rules

Don't:

• use bots, scrapers or scripts to access the Service or take an interview;
• pretend to be someone else, or use someone else's email;
• try to manipulate the AI judges, for example by speaking instructions meant for them;
• read prepared or AI-written answers as your own, or get live help during an interview;
• get around rate limits or other protections;
• reverse engineer or copy the Service, except where the law allows it anyway;
• put unlawful, abusive, hateful, deceptive or infringing content in a campaign name, blurb or anywhere else; or
• use the Service in a way that harms it, us, or anyone else.

If you do, we may block your access, discard your results, and remove your content or recognition.

Your content

"Your content" is the audio of your answers, your transcript, and anything you type into the Service, like a campaign blurb.

• It stays yours. We don't claim ownership of it.
• What you let us do with it. You give us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free permission to process, store and show your content only as needed to run and secure the Service: sending it to our AI providers for transcription and scoring, showing it to you, and, if you pass and agree to recognition, publishing your transcript.
• Audio isn't stored after it's transcribed.
• No AI training. We don't use your content to train AI models. The terms we use our AI providers under (Microsoft for the OpenAI and xAI models, and Anthropic for Claude) don't allow them to use it to train their models either.
• Your report link is private but shareable. Anyone who has it can see your report. Share it only with people you want to see it.

You promise you have the right to submit your content and that it doesn't break the law or anyone's rights.

What's ours

The Service, including its design, questions, scoring rules and software, belongs to us or our licensors. You can use it as these terms allow. If you send us feedback, we may use it freely.

No warranty

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We don't promise the Service will always be available, error-free or secure, or that any score is correct or will repeat.

Limit of liability

The Service is free. To the fullest extent the law allows:

• we aren't liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost jobs, opportunities, profits or data; and
• our total liability for any claim about the Service is limited to US $100.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law doesn't allow to be limited, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for intentional or grossly negligent misconduct, or takes away rights you have as a consumer under mandatory law. Some places don't allow some of these limits, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

Ending your use

You can stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or end your access at any time, especially if you break these terms. Sections that by their nature should continue (Your content, What's ours, No warranty, Limit of liability, Governing law, and General) continue after that.

Governing law, and where a disagreement goes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. If something between us ends up in court, it goes to the state or federal courts in Texas (in Harris County where the law allows), and we both agree to that.

Two exceptions. You can always bring a claim in small claims court where you live, if it belongs there. And if you're a consumer outside the U.S. (for example in the EU, EEA, UK or Switzerland), you keep the mandatory consumer protections of the country where you live and can bring a claim in its courts.

We'd much rather hear from you first at legal@interviewreadynot.com. Most things end there.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms, for example to reflect changes to the Service, our providers, the law or regulators' guidance, or who runs the Service (including a company we form), or to make them clearer or fix mistakes. Changes take effect when we post them here, and the date at the top changes with them, with an entry under What changed. They apply only to what happens after that: each time you press Start, you agree to the terms then posted. If a material change is less favourable to you, we'll show a notice on the site at least 14 days before it applies. A change never applies to a claim or disagreement about something that happened before it took effect. The Service is free, so if you don't agree to a change, you can stop using it and ask us to delete your data.

General

These terms and the Privacy Notice are the whole agreement between us about the Service. If part of them can't be enforced, the rest still applies. If we don't enforce something, we haven't given up the right to. You can't transfer these terms; we can transfer them to whoever runs the Service next, including a company we form.
