What is Yoodli now, after its move to business customers?
Yoodli is an AI roleplay platform that now sells mainly to companies. On October 24, 2026, a banner across its site described it as "the AI Platform for Human Skills" for "revenue teams, L&D, and training companies." Individual plans for interview and speaking practice are still on its pricing page, starting free.
The shift has a date. On December 2, 2025, Yoodli announced a $40 million Series B and its "expansion into experiential learning." The release called it a move "from fast-growing startup to trusted enterprise partner" and named Google, Snowflake, RingCentral, Databricks and Sandler Sales as customers. It said Yoodli was founded in Seattle in 2021.
The homepage now leads with sales training, onboarding and team learning. Its page title reads "AI Roleplays for Sales Training, Onboarding and L&D." Interview practice has moved to a use-case page for individuals, and that page is where a job seeker should start.
How much does Yoodli cost compared with Prept?
Yoodli's individual plans start at $0, and its cheapest paid plan, Pro, is $8 a month billed annually. Prept's free tier needs no card, and its paid plan is $29 a month or $69 a quarter. Both prices were checked October 24, 2026, on each company's own pricing page.
Yoodli's pricing page lists three individual plans. Starter is $0 with "Up to 5 roleplays total" and "No credit card required." Pro is $8 a month billed annually, with up to 10 roleplays a week that don't roll over. Advanced is $20 a month billed annually, with unlimited roleplays.
The page offers monthly billing too and says annual billing saves 40%. The monthly figures weren't shown in the version of the page loaded for this review, so check them before you subscribe. The FAQ says cancelling stops auto-renewal and that "Yoodli does not offer refunds on cancellation."
Prept's pricing gives one of everything free: your resume reviewed in full, 1 job posting checked, 1 application tailored, 1 interview hour transcribed and debriefed, and your headline and LinkedIn. Search is $29 a month or $69 a quarter. It starts with 7 days free with a card, and there's a 14-day full refund if you haven't used the paid features.
How do Yoodli and Prept compare feature by feature?
Yoodli is for practice conversations before the interview. Prept reviews the real interview after it and tailors your resume to each posting. The overlap is small: both can give feedback on a recording. The table uses the same rows on every Prept comparison page, with Yoodli's cells from its own site on October 24, 2026.
| Feature | Prept | Yoodli |
|---|---|---|
| Help during a live interview | No, by design (analysis after the call, never during it) | Not offered |
| Practice or mock interviews | No | Yes: live AI roleplays with an interviewer who asks follow-up questions |
| Debrief of a real recorded interview | Yes, transcribed and debriefed, quotes the moment you lost the room | Feedback on uploaded recordings is on every individual plan; each upload counts as a roleplay |
| Resume review with an ATS score and reasons | Yes | Not offered |
| Resume tailored to each posting | Yes | Not offered |
| Every claim checked against facts you confirmed | Yes; numbers you can't stand behind are left off rather than invented | Not stated on its site |
| Job posting fit check | Yes, scored with the reasons | Not offered |
| LinkedIn profile help | Yes (headline free, full profile on Search) | Not offered |
| Job application tracker | No standalone tracker; each application keeps its tailored resume and rounds | Not offered |
| Free tier | One of everything, no card | Starter: up to 5 roleplays in total, no card |
| Lowest paid price (USD) | $29 a month, or $69 a quarter | $8 a month, billed annually (Pro) |
| Pick it if | You've had real interviews and want to know what went wrong in them | You want spoken practice for interviews, pitches or presentations, or your employer pays for it |
How good is Yoodli for interview practice?
It's a capable practice partner. Yoodli's interview preparation page describes "realistic interviewers, dynamic follow-up questions, and instant, judgment-free feedback." Feedback covers structure, clarity, conciseness, pacing and filler words. That makes it good for the spoken side of an interview: rambling, filler and answers that run long.
The follow-up questions are the strong part. Most practice tools ask a question and stop. A roleplay that pushes back with "what did you do next?" is closer to a real behavioral round, where the second question is often the hard one.
Yoodli Coach, on the same page, "suggests what to practice next, and tracks your progress." Yoodli also says it can be used for "presentations, pitches, salary negotiations, performance conversations." If you need practice beyond interviews, that range helps.
Two limits are worth knowing. The free plan's 5 roleplays are lifetime sessions, and "Any practice session over 30 seconds counts as a roleplay." The pricing FAQ also says session data on Starter and Pro "may be used to improve the platform," and only Advanced and business plans exclude it from AI training.
Can Yoodli review a real interview you recorded?
Its plans include "Feedback on uploaded recordings," so you can give it a recording and get feedback. Yoodli describes that feedback in terms of delivery and structure. Prept's debrief is built around one real interview: it transcribes the round, then quotes the moment you lost the room and what to say instead.
Either way, the recording has to be made with consent. Ask at the start of the call, wait for a clear yes and accept a no; how to ask to record your interview has the exact sentence. Prept asks you to confirm consent before every recording, and deletes the audio once the transcript is written.
Prept's line is analysis after the call, never during it. If you have no recording, you can still do the review from memory with the free 10-minute debrief template. It walks you through each question, what you said and where the interviewer's interest dropped.
Who does Yoodli still suit?
Yoodli still suits job seekers who want spoken practice with follow-up questions, especially for behavioral rounds. It also suits people preparing for pitches or presentations, and anyone whose employer will reimburse a learning tool. Its pricing FAQ says reimbursement "is supported on the Advanced plan," with a letter you can download.
Students should check their school first. Yoodli's interview page says universities, bootcamps and career programs use it to get learners "interview-ready at the scale of a cohort." Access through a school would make the 5-roleplay limit on Starter less of a problem.
Yoodli suits you less if your problem is the resume or the real rounds you're already losing. Its individual plans don't touch your resume, and it doesn't check a posting for fit. For those, a tool built for the application and the debrief is the better match.
Should you choose Yoodli or Prept?
Choose Yoodli to practice speaking before an interview, and Prept to review a real interview after it and tailor your resume. They don't compete much. A common split is Yoodli's free roleplays before round one, then a debrief after every real round so you fix what actually went wrong.
If you're comparing practice tools, Prept vs Big Interview covers a course-style platform with a $39 plan for 30 days. Prept vs Google Interview Warmup explains why Google's free practice tool appears to be gone.
