🚀 SKILLGPS – AI-Powered Interview Coach
💡 Inspiration
Most people don’t fail interviews because they lack knowledge —
they fail because they don’t know what they’re weak at.
Existing platforms provide generic questions and surface-level feedback, but none focus on targeted improvement.
We built SKILLGPS to solve this:
An AI system that identifies your weak skills and trains you like a real interviewer.
🧠 What it does
SKILLGPS is a personalized AI interview coach that:
- 🔍 Detects skill gaps from user profiles
- 🎯 Generates questions only from weak areas
- 🎤 Conducts live AI mock interviews (voice + text)
- ⚡ Adapts difficulty in real-time based on answers
- 📊 Provides strict, realistic evaluation (Correct / Partial / Incorrect)
- 📈 Tracks skill-wise improvement over time
👉 The result: Users don’t just practice — they improve faster and smarter.
