Product walkthrough

See Mentaro in action

Watch the complete flow from creating a preparation goal to practicing questions, opening an AI explanation, and reviewing progress.

Built around your goal

Not every topic needs the same depth

Mentaro builds a structured plan from your target role, technology stack, seniority, and interview timeline. You review every suggested topic and target depth before it becomes part of the program.

01

AI suggests

Topics, importance, and depth based on your goal.

02

You confirm

Change priorities, remove topics, and add your own.

03

Knowledge gaps stay visible

Weak topics are prioritized, difficult questions return sooner, and progress stays tied to your preparation goal.

Adaptive technical practice

Work through topics progressively

Practice technical questions in a deliberate sequence, assess what you know, and revisit difficult material. Mentaro tracks progress by topic so the plan reflects where you need more attention.

01

Set your goal

Add the role, stack, seniority, and deadline. Include the job description if you have one.

02

Review the program

Mentaro suggests topics and depth. You decide what to keep and what to change.

03

Build real understanding

Use focused explanations and AI discussions to explore difficult concepts instead of memorizing isolated answers.

04

Revisit difficult questions

Questions you struggle with automatically return in upcoming reviews.

AI-assisted explanations

“I don't know” becomes a short lesson

Get an AI-powered explanation when a topic does not click. Mentaro uses the current question, topic, target depth, and preparation goal instead of showing generic reference text.

The Event Loop does not run JavaScript in parallel

The main thread executes callbacks sequentially. Until a heavy computation finishes, the loop cannot move to the next task.

Key point

Use Worker Threads or a separate process for computation.

When Mentaro helps

One system for different preparation goals

01

Mid-level → Senior

Close knowledge gaps and deepen the topics assessed at the next level.

02

Changing stacks

Build a program for a new role without a random collection of courses and lists.

03

A specific position

Analyze the requirements and focus on what can affect the interview outcome.

Start with a clear goal

Make today's preparation obvious

Set up your role, stack, and interview date. Mentaro will suggest the first program. Your daily queue combines new cards with questions due for review, while topic progress keeps each study session focused on the knowledge gaps that still need attention.

Software engineer interview preparation

Prepare with a plan, then practice like the interview is real

Mentaro combines structured technical interview preparation with AI-assisted practice. Build a plan around your target role, focus on the topics that matter, and use technical mock interviews to practice explaining your reasoning out loud.

Personalized interview preparation

Turn a target role, seniority level, technology stack, and interview date into a focused preparation program instead of working through an endless generic question list.

AI mock interview practice

Practice technical answers in voice mode, explain trade-offs, and work through follow-up questions so your preparation includes the communication skills a real software engineering interview requires.

AI explanations for weak topics

When an answer is incomplete, use context-aware explanations to understand the concept, connect it to production scenarios, and return to it in later reviews.
