Most AI interviewers parrot a script or won't stop digging. Koecle was built by design researchers to interview the way one would. It picks up the exact word you used, paces its follow-ups, and pushes deeper only when the moment's right, until it reaches the insight people can't put into words. Your interviewee just opens a link, no account. Then one conversation becomes an insight report, a 1-on-1 brief they control, or a cross-interview analysis.
I spent more than ten years doing design research, interviewing people to reach what they actually mean. Koecle is that instinct moved into an AI. You send someone a link, they talk, and one conversation turns into an insight report or the groundwork for a 1-on-1.
I didn't build it to be another efficiency tool. The AI handles the fact-gathering so a person can put their focus into the part that really matters, the careful work of shaping it.
It's day one and it's far from finished, so I'd genuinely rather hear where it breaks. If you try it, tell me the moment it felt like a real interview and the moment it felt like a bot. Both help.
If you want the personal side, I wrote a longer piece on the six years that led here and why I moved this know-how into an AI. It's more founder story than product tour:
The no-account link for interviewees is such a nice touch for getting authentic responses. One thing that would help our team: an option to add a short pre-survey or screener question before the AI kicks in, so we can route different demographics into different interview tracks without sending them to separate links.

Hi Product Hunt. I'm Yuki, the maker.
I spent more than ten years doing design research, interviewing people to reach what they actually mean. Koecle is that instinct moved into an AI. You send someone a link, they talk, and one conversation turns into an insight report or the groundwork for a 1-on-1.

But the thing that helps most is trying it and telling me where it breaks.
