Launched WorkZo AI on Product Hunt Today 🚀
Hi everyone 👋
I’m Haritha, a solo founder building WorkZo AI — an AI recruiter simulation platform designed to make interview practice feel more realistic.
Most interview tools ask generic questions.
I wanted to build something that feels closer to an actual recruiter conversation:
recruiter memory
pressure & follow-ups
interruptions
trust changes based on answers
retrying weak answers after the interview
The idea started from my own frustration with interview prep feeling too scripted and unrealistic.
I’ve been building this while learning startup development, AI workflows, UX, and product design step by step as a solo founder.
Today I launched the beta on Product Hunt, and honestly the experience already taught me a lot:
launching is emotionally harder than building
first users don’t magically appear
demos matter more than feature lists
people react strongly to “realism”
Still improving:
voice interview stability
onboarding
recruiter intelligence
cinematic UI/UX
Would genuinely love feedback from fellow founders:
What makes AI products feel “real” to users?
What’s the hardest part about getting first traction?
Would you trust AI for interview prep?
Product Hunt launch:
This is a stronger category than “AI interview prep.” The interesting part is the recruiter simulation layer: memory, pressure, follow-ups, interruptions, trust changes, and retrying weak answers after the interview. That makes it feel more like an adaptive interview rehearsal system than another question bank.
I’d lean harder into the realism angle because that is what separates it. People do not struggle with finding interview questions. They struggle with staying clear when the conversation gets unpredictable, when follow-ups expose weak answers, or when pressure changes how they respond.
The naming is also worth tightening early. WorkZo AI sounds broad and a bit generic for something this specific. If the product becomes a serious AI recruiter simulation platform, Viryxa.com would carry the adaptive AI/interview intelligence angle more sharply than a work-plus-AI style name.
