Show HN: Voice AI Based Visa Interview Prep

https://app.toughtongueai.com/collections/685906c3a2320018923dcaaf/
1•ajabhish•7h ago
Here’s a draft “Show HN”–style post you can use on Hacker News:

---

*Show HN: Tough Tongue AI – Agentic Role‑Play for Visa Interview Prep* A realistic, memory‑driven AI coach to help you ace every consular Q\&A

I’ve built *Tough Tongue AI*, an agentic role‑play platform designed to simulate real visa interviews and drive continuous improvement across sessions. Instead of one‑off mocks, our AI:

* *Remembers your past answers* so you never repeat the same mistakes * *Generates dynamic follow‑up questions* based on your responses * *Offers instant, actionable feedback* on content, tone, and phrasing * *Supports cross‑session progress tracking* with personalized drills * *Adapts to any visa type*—student, work, tourist, H4, Schengen, and more

I’d love to get feedback from the HN community on:

1. How realistic are the role‑plays? 2. What additional visa‑specific features would you want? 3. Ideas for integrating community‑driven question sets.

*Try it now:* [https://app.toughtongueai.com/collections/685906c3a232001892...](#) *Source & Docs:* [https://github.com/your‑org/toughtongue‑visa](#)

Any thoughts or suggestions are hugely appreciated!
