The Problem
Most candidates practice a lot. Few know if they are improving.
Traditional prep methods optimize for the wrong thing — more cases, more exposure, more generic feedback. They miss what actually matters.
Libraries of 500 cases teach tactics, not thinking.
Generic feedback doesn't tell you what to fix.
You can't know your readiness without structured measurement.
Expensive coaches are only valuable when you know what to work on.
Market Gap
Where we fit, and where the rest don't.
Coaches go deep but cost a fortune. Libraries scale but skip diagnosis. Self-study leaves you guessing. CaseGrade gives you scored volume — at a price that doesn't bankrupt your prep.

Self-study
Cheap, but no

Case libraries
Lots of cases,
zero diagnosis.
Volume means how many reps you can afford. Diagnosis means how specifically a tool tells you what to fix. CaseGrade is the only option that scores both axes.
The Solution
A readiness system,
not a case library.
Three components that replace the guesswork: an AI interviewer that actually probes, a rubric that actually grades, and a readiness signal that tells you whether you're ready.
A Live AI Interviewer
A voice-based case interviewer that behaves like a real partner. It asks one question at a time, demands specificity, pushes back on vague answers, and never gives away the answer. Twenty minutes, full case, on demand.
A Real Rubric, Not a Vibe Check
Every session is scored across six dimensions — problem structuring, hypothesis quality, quantitative reasoning, synthesis, communication, and poise — plus a behavioral score. Each dimension comes back with evidence from your actual transcript.
A Readiness Signal You Can Trust
Your performance maps to a readiness band — Not Ready, Developing, Approaching, Ready for First Rounds, or Interview Ready. One glance and you know whether you can walk into a first round tomorrow.
What You Get
Every session ends with a score you can act on.
Not a vague summary. A structured rubric breakdown, your readiness band, your top gap, and exactly what to practice next.
6 scored dimensions — not just an overall number.
Readiness band — Not Ready, Developing, Approaching, Ready, or Interview Ready.
Targeted next steps — drills and cases matched to your weakest area.

How It Works
From case to readiness score in under an hour.
Choose a Case
Browse a curated case library across industries and difficulties. Filter by type — market entry, profitability, growth strategy, M&A, or operations — and pick the right challenge for your level.
Interview Live
An AI interviewer conducts a realistic voice case. It asks probing follow-ups, challenges your assumptions, and moves through the case at a professional pace.
Measure & Improve
Get scored on six dimensions after every session. Know your readiness band, see where you improved, and get specific guidance on what to practice next.
Sample interviewer prompt
“Walk me through how you’d size the market for premium pet food in Germany. Before you structure, what clarifying questions would you ask?”
Want to see a full session in action?
Built different by design.
Case libraries give you volume. Coaches give you human judgment. CaseGrade gives you both — structured, on-demand, and affordable.

We've been on both sides of the consulting interview.
We watched talented candidates fail interviews they should have passed — not because they lacked potential, but because they had no structured way to measure their readiness or diagnose their weaknesses. Coaches were too expensive for most. Peer practice was too inconsistent. Case libraries gave volume without feedback.
CaseGrade exists to close that gap. Every feature — the AI interviewer, the 6-dimension rubric, the evidence-backed feedback — was built to answer one question honestly: are you actually ready?

“Two mock partners told me 'great job.' CaseGrade said Approaching, 74/100, with Synthesis my weakest at Developing. That's the first time feedback actually told me what to fix.”
Anna V.
NYU Stern School of Business
“I kept grinding full cases and going nowhere. The breakdown showed my Communication was already Strong (4.2/5) but Hypothesis Quality was stuck at Developing (2.7/5) — so I spent a week just on hypotheses instead of more reps. My structure stopped wandering after that.”
Lisa B.
Harvard Undergrad
“I figured I just needed to do more cases. Five sessions in, my readiness band hadn't budged — and the breakdown made it obvious: Quantitative Reasoning, stuck at Developing, was dragging the whole score down. Volume was never my problem.”
Clayton A.
Bowdoin College
“I started using it as a weekly check-in. Same six dimensions, scored 0–5 every time, so I could actually watch my Poise climb from Needs Work to Strong over a month instead of guessing.”
