Yoodli, from Yoodli, Inc. in Seattle, is an AI speaking coach and roleplay platform, not a live interview copilot. You practice interviews, pitches and conversations with an AI partner in the browser, and it analyses your delivery afterwards. Its homepage now leads with team training for sales, onboarding and managers, but individuals can still practice interviews on free and paid plans, and the site says more than a million people have trained with it. This page explains how Yoodli works step by step, the platforms and meeting apps it supports, its plans and free tier as listed on its site on November 12, 2026, where your data goes, its limits, and how it compares with CoPilot Interview. We make CoPilot Interview, so read the comparison with that in mind.
How Yoodli works, step by step
Yoodli works after you speak, not during a real interview. It has three practice modes: Interview, where an AI interviewer asks preset questions and follow-ups based on your answers; Roleplay, where the AI plays a persona from a scenario; and Pitch or presentation, where you deliver a talk after a countdown and can then take AI follow-up questions.
- Open interview practice in the browser and grant microphone access; camera access is optional and adds feedback on body language and how well you are centred in frame.
- Type the role and company, choose the interviewer's demeanor, and optionally pick questions from your question bank or add your own.
- Press Start: the AI interviewer asks its questions and follows up on your answers. If it cuts in too early in a noisy room, turn off Auto-respond so it waits until you press Next response.
- Share your screen at any point if you want the AI to see and respond to something, such as a portfolio or slides; shared screens are recorded.
- Press Stop, then View Analysis, to save the session and see feedback on structure, clarity, conciseness, pacing, filler words, confidence and answer length, or ask for an AI follow-up question to keep going.
- Yoodli Coach learns your target roles and goals, suggests what to practice next and tracks progress across sessions.

Plans and pricing
Prices as listed on Yoodli's own site on November 12, 2026. They change often, so check before you pay.
| Plan | Price | What it includes |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | Free | 5 lifetime practice sessions (any speech, interview or roleplay over 30 seconds counts); session data may be used to improve the platform |
| Pro | $8 a month, billed annually | Up to 10 roleplays a week, live AI roleplays, feedback on uploaded recordings, community access |
| Advanced | $20 a month, billed annually | Unlimited roleplays; your data is excluded from AI training |
| Business and Enterprise | Quoted per seat | Custom roleplays and rubrics, coaching for every learner, dashboards, SSO and integrations |
Free tier: 5 practice sessions for the life of the account, not per month, and a session counts once it runs past 30 seconds. Monthly billing is offered, but the pricing page shows only the annual figures, labelled as a 40 percent saving. Our Yoodli pricing guide walks through the plans in more detail.
Refunds: Yoodli does not refund on cancellation. Cancelling (Account, then Billing, then downgrade to Free) stops renewal, and you keep access until the end of the paid period.
Where your audio and data go
Yoodli's privacy policy, effective September 10, 2024, covers the audio and video recordings you enable, which it analyses for visual, verbal and vocal delivery, plus account, payment, connected-calendar and usage data. It sets no fixed retention period for recordings, does not name its AI vendors, and says data may be used to improve its AI speech coach, with an opt-out in your profile settings; on the pricing page, only Advanced excludes your data from AI training, and Starter sessions may be used to improve the platform. You can delete your account from Settings, with a three-day grace period before content is removed, or by email to support. The company says it is SOC 2 Type 2 certified and GDPR compliant.
Limits, and who Yoodli suits
- For individuals it is practice only: no answers appear during a real interview.
- The free tier is 5 sessions for life.
- Paid plans renew and are not refunded on cancellation.
- The interview practice help article does not mention uploading a résumé or job description; you type the role and company.
- The product and help center now centre on team training, so interview-specific guidance is thinner than the sales material.
Yoodli suits candidates who want to hear how they come across: rehearsing answers, pitches and presentations with an AI that follows up, then fixing filler words, pacing and structure before the real thing. Our Yoodli review covers how the feedback holds up in practice.

Where CoPilot Interview fits
★ Best choice for candidates who want rehearsal and live help in one app: CoPilot Interview. CoPilot Interview is an interview copilot built as a native desktop app for Windows and macOS. It listens to the call and your microphone and shows captions and a structured answer in about two seconds, with free AI mock interviews to rehearse first. The free plan gives 15 minutes a day of live help in sessions of up to 15 minutes, with AI mock interviews included. Paid plans start at $24.99 a month with no annual commitment, and hour packs from $9.99 never expire. Audio is streamed in short segments and not stored, and the transcript stays in your Documents folder. Read how CoPilot Interview works for the details. Whatever tool you use, follow your employer's rules; online assessments and AI-led interviews forbid outside help.
Disclosure: CoPilot Interview is our product, so weigh what we say about it accordingly.
