Hi Product Hunt, I’m Mayur, Senior Product Manager at HackerRank (YC S11).
We built Chakra because early-round screening is breaking: applicant volume is exploding, scheduling takes forever, applications are increasingly AI-polished (or fabricated), and interview integrity issues are rising.
How it works:
1. Configure the role, competencies, and rubric in a chat-based setup
2. Invite candidates via email, a link, or directly through your ATS
3. Chakra conducts a structured voice/video interview and adapts to probe for the signals you need
4. Get an instant report with an actionable recommendation, skill-level feedback, transcript references and full-session replay
What makes it different
Most “AI interviewers” today are either niche/single-skill tools or single-modal experiences that don’t generate robust, trustworthy signal. Chakra is designed to be multi-modal (voice, video, IDE, whiteboard) and versatile across roles—while still producing grounded, auditable evidence in every report.

And If you’re hiring right now, do try this sample FDE interview: https://www.hackerrank.com/interviewer/1enskc0p2qs/session
I’d love feedback on:
1. Rubric setup (does it match how you hire?)
2. Candidate experience (does it feel fair and natural?)
3. Report quality (is it truly decision-ready?)
The candidate experience part is what I'd watch closely. After years of hiring in IT, the biggest risk with AI screening isn't accuracy — it's drop-off. Strong candidates with options won't finish an interview that feels robotic or one-sided. How do you handle the moment when a candidate gives an unexpected answer that doesn't fit neatly into the rubric? Does Chakra adapt the follow-up, or does it stick to the script?
Looks interesting, good luck with your launch! @mayur_moorthy
