Best Prepfully Alternatives for Mock Interviews with Company Insiders (2026)

Five Prepfully alternatives for mock interviews and coaching with people at your target company, with prices checked Oct 18, 2026.

Short answer

Which one should you use?

Prepfully is a marketplace where you book one-hour mock interviews with coaches, including people who currently work at your target company. People look elsewhere when they want clearer pricing, practice between sessions, anonymous mocks or a different mix of coaches. These are the alternatives I'd look at:

01Prep for a specific company and role, with coaches from that company: Dataford (I run it). It has 40+ verified-employer coaches at companies like Meta, Google and Databricks, plus loop guides, real interview questions and AI mock interviews for roles like Data Engineer at Meta or Software Engineer at Amazon.
02Coaching plus free guides, with credit-based pricing: IGotAnOffer.
03Anonymous live mocks for software engineers: interviewing.io.
04Free peer mocks and courses: Aced (formerly Exponent).
05System design with live practice included: Hello Interview.

I run Dataford, so keep that in mind. I link to each site's own pages so you can check prices and features yourself.

Context

Why people look for a Prepfully alternative

01No public price list. Rates depend on the coach, so it's hard to budget before you browse.
02Less on the loop itself. You get a session, but little self-serve prep for how a specific company runs its rounds.
03Coach quality varies. On any marketplace, results depend on who you book.
04Refund exclusions. Missed sessions and some other cases aren't refunded, per its FAQ.

01

Dataford

Dataford is interview prep for a specific company and role, across 80+ roles and 15,000+ companies. You pick the loop, like Data Engineer at Meta or Software Engineer at Amazon, and get a guide to each round, real questions past candidates were asked, AI mock interviews and SQL and coding practice where the loop needs it.

01Good for: A mock interview with someone who works at the company you're interviewing with, plus practice for that loop between sessions. Coaches cover data, engineering (including forward deployed and AI/ML), product and consulting roles. Sessions are anonymous (the coach sees your first name only, and nothing is recorded), and you can cancel free up to 24 hours before.
021:1 coaching: 40+ coaches with a verified-employer badge who work at companies like Meta, Google, Amazon, Databricks, Snowflake, Stripe and Netflix. Sessions are 60-minute mock interviews or strategy calls, about $109 to $339 per session, with written feedback afterward. Sessions are anonymous and nothing is recorded. Coaching launched on October 17, 2026 with 40+ coaches, and we expect to pass 500 in the next couple of months as we add a more human side to prep on Dataford. Every session runs inside Dataford itself, with no separate Zoom or Google Meet link, so booking, the mock and the feedback all sit in one place.
03Weaker on: With 40+ coaches, some company and role pairs won't have a coach yet. Some company-role guides are built from a small number of reports, so treat their stats as rough.
04Price: $39/month or $99/year, same features on both plans.
05Scale: 51,000+ real interview questions and 86,000+ interview guides.
06Disclosure: I founded Dataford.
02

IGotAnOffer

IGotAnOffer is a coaching marketplace with free written guides for many companies and roles. You book sessions with coaches and pay in credits.

01Good for: PM, software engineering, data science and consulting candidates who want a few sessions with an experienced coach.
02Weaker on: It's mostly coaching and guides, so you'll still need somewhere to drill questions.
03Price: Sessions cost 2 to 5 credits an hour and credits cost $40 to $50 each, so about $100 to $250 per hour.
03

interviewing.io

interviewing.io runs anonymous mock interviews with experienced engineers. Sessions are voice only, with no video, and the interviewer doesn't see your details. It covers coding, system design, ML, behavioral and engineering management interviews, and has a free AI interviewer for coding and system design.

01Good for: Software engineers who want a realistic, anonymous dress rehearsal before an important onsite.
02Weaker on: Expensive for volume, and little for product, analytics or data roles outside ML.
03Price: Interviews start at $179 and cost more for some subjects or an interviewer from a specific company. Full refund if you're unhappy.
04

Aced (formerly Exponent)

Aced's membership includes peer mock interviews: 5 a month on the free Basic plan and unlimited on Pro, plus courses, video answers and company guides. AI mock interviews are on Expert, and coaching with experts is a paid add-on.

01Good for: Lots of cheap or free practice with peers, especially for PM and software engineering.
02Weaker on: A peer isn't an interviewer from your target company, and expert coaching costs extra.
03Price: Free Basic. Pro is $79/month or $12/month billed yearly. Expert is $99/month or $20/month billed yearly.
05

Hello Interview

Hello Interview is best known for system design. Premium includes videos on system design, low-level design and coding, recent questions from real interviews and live practice interviews: 1 with the monthly plan and 2 with the yearly plan.

01Good for: Senior software engineers who want system design prep with a live practice interview included.
02Weaker on: Narrow if you're interviewing for PM or data roles.
03Price: $47 for 1 month, $95 for 1 year or $319 lifetime when I checked, shown as discounts from higher list prices.
