About CrackIt Dev

Built for interviews at product-led companies and high-growth startups — from FAANG-scale loops to lean frontend teams.

Why we built CrackIt Dev

Coding got cheaper. Systems thinking got more valuable. We built a place to practice what AI cannot replace.

  • The practice coach asks questions — it will not spoil requirements, diagrams, or tradeoffs.
  • Every submit is scored against the same calibrated rubric for that question.
  • RADIO steps, canvas, notes, and session history in one workspace — not scattered chat threads.

ChatGPT is great for brainstorming; CrackIt Dev is for interview-shaped practice.

Coding got cheaper

AI generates components, boilerplate, and first drafts fast. The bottleneck moved from typing code to knowing what to build, what to cut, and what to reject.

Systems thinking got more valuable

Scope, architecture, tradeoffs, failure modes, and clear communication matter more in every frontend loop — whether you are at a large company or a ten-person startup.

You lead; AI assists

Our practice coach nudges; the mock interviewer probes; the reviewer scores your RADIO answer. None of them replace your judgment — they sharpen it before the real room.

Our mission

Help frontend engineers practice the skills that survive autocomplete: structured design, honest tradeoffs, and reviewing AI-assisted work with staff-level rigor.

What you can practice

  • RADIO practice — requirements, architecture, data, interface, and tradeoffs with an AI coach that asks questions instead of giving answers.
  • Calibrated review — structured feedback on your submitted design across 20 frontend system design questions.
  • Mock interviews — timed text sessions with a senior front-end engineer persona and a performance report (available on select questions we have QA'd).
  • Content library — DSA, JavaScript, UI components, and system design case studies for interview loops that still include coding rounds.

CrackIt Dev is built by Sahil Chopra, a frontend engineer who has been through product and platform interviews and wanted prep that matches how teams actually evaluate design judgment — not just memorized diagrams.

Get started

Start with free challenges and system design previews. When you are ready, practice a full RADIO session and see how review sharpens your next attempt.
