Our Story
At his last job, Kenneth interviewed many aspiring Product Managers — brilliant people — who kept falling short.
Not because they lacked ability, but because they didn't have the network or resources to decode the interview process.
Even at Stanford, he saw students cobbling together prep from Glassdoor threads, Exponent videos, ChatGPT prompts, and overpriced coaches — trying to make sense of it all under time pressure.
Meanwhile, Oliver — his engineering partner — was building systems that saved lives and transformed healthcare.
But he saw the same problem in talent: capable people shut out by a hiring process that rewards polish over potential.
They realized the issue wasn't just the interview.
It was the barrier to effective, personalized preparation.
Coaching was expensive. Mock interviews were inconsistent. Generic AI tools were... well, generic.
So they built Kairos.
An AI tutor that doesn't just simulate interviews — it makes prep engaging, guided, and targeted. It learns what company you're applying to, studies their values, and helps you practice like the world's best coach. Instantly. Affordably. On your schedule.
The name comes from the Greek word kairos — the opportune moment. Because that's what an interview is:
A chance that changes everything.
