Built by people who've actually interviewed.
Every interview-prep tool we tried treated finding the role, drafting the application, and prepping for the interview as three separate problems. They're the same problem.
A job search is three problems pretending to be one: finding roles that actually fit, sending applications that don't look generic, and preparing for the specific interview you land next week. Almost every tool out there picks one of those three and ignores the other two.
ChatGPT can write a cover letter, sure — but it doesn't know which jobs you've applied to, can't practice an interview with you in real time, and forgets everything you said yesterday. Notion templates are spreadsheets with extra steps — they turn you into the IT admin of your own job hunt. Pramp pairs you with strangers for generic sessions that have nothing to do with the interview you actually have on Tuesday. Final Round AI sits next to you during a real interview and feeds you answers — useful in the moment, but it can't get you ready the week before.
The piece nobody does well is the one that compounds: prep that remembers what you're prepping for. Once we know you applied to Stripe's Ledger team, the practice test should be about the systems Stripe Ledger actually runs, and the mock interview should be a senior engineer who asks about the things Stripe cares about. That kind of depth only works when the same product finds the role, drafts the application, and runs the prep. Three separate tools can't do it.
So we built one. Cruto pulls fresh openings from LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, and ZipRecruiter every day, writes a tailored cover letter and resume in seconds, and unlocks role-specific practice the moment you mark a job applied. The interview you're preparing for is the interview you're practicing.
Small team. Real interview scars.
“I went through six final rounds in four months. By round three I had a spreadsheet, a Notion doc, three open ChatGPT tabs, and zero prep that knew which company I was talking to next. I wanted one thing that held all of it.”
— Why Cruto exists
“The right question for a Stripe Ledger interview is not the right question for a Datadog Infra role. Generic prep trains you for the average interview — and your interviewer next Tuesday is not the average. We built something that trains you for the specific one.”

No VC round. No growth-at-all-costs. Built to last.
We charge $29/mo for Pro and $59/mo for Elite because that's what actually covers the cost of running real AI interviews and lets us keep building instead of chasing growth metrics for a venture round. The free tier is generous enough to actually use — 15 jobs in your pipeline, 3 practice tests, and 15 minutes of live mock interview every month. No credit card.
Every feature is tied to a specific role. The cover letter is built from your actual resume for the actual job description. The practice test is built around the company's real tech and the seniority they're hiring for. The mock interviewer asks the questions that role really cares about — not a generic script. That's the bet: depth compounds; breadth doesn't.
If something isn't working — a draft that reads generic, a practice question that misses the role, a job we should have matched and didn't — write to hello@cruto.ai. We read every email.
Walk in knowing you've already nailed it once. Free to start.
The free tier covers the whole loop — finding roles, drafting the application, a practice test, and 15 minutes of live mock interview every month. No credit card.
