I’ve had a lot of people message for “work” wanting fully production ready sample videos or an exact explanation of my tech stack and how I retain character consistency before a job is offered. These are not interview questions these are proprietary ownership questions. Is this normal here?
hey Russell, asking for work samples is normal but you can always send them projects from your portfolio! asking for free work is not normal - you can always report that request to hello@contra.com.
I built Vetra, an AI technical interviewer that makes interviews more structured, adaptive, and realistic.
Vetra conducts real-time voice interviews, explores a candidate’s experience, adapts its questions based on their responses, evaluates performance, and generates structured assessments.
I built the interview orchestration with LangGraph, added real-time voice interaction using Gemini Live, and created a separate evaluation layer for evidence-based scoring.
The goal was to create an AI interview experience that feels more like a real technical conversation than a chatbot.
Jonathan, keeping the evaluation layer separate from the interviewer is a smart choice. When the same model asks and scores, it tends to grade its own questions kindly. How are you handling silence and long pauses on the voice side? That was the hardest part for us on a voice AI build.
I only make videos for products I actually use.🧠
If your product is new to me, I spend a few days with it before writing a single frame.
That's how the video shows what it's really like to use it, not just what it looks like.
The identity and guidelines I built received this feedback: ‘They make the identity feel genuinely usable rather than just beautiful.’ For a founder choosing a design partner, that’s a concrete part of the work to ask about.
