Hedy AI

Hedy AI is basically having a co-worker whisper smart comebacks in your ear during meetings without anyone knowing — except this one actually earns its keep by surfacing suggestions before you realize you need them. The specialized modes for things like job interviews and negotiations show they get that high-stakes conversations require different energy, and the fact that it ships prep notes before your meeting even starts is the kind of low-key thoughtful feature that separates real tools from AI-washing. At $179 for lifetime access, it's priced for people who'd rather spend that than bomb a salary negotiation, and the Apple Watch companion means you can even get coaching in job interviews you take on the go — which is either genius or slightly unhinged, depending on how confident you need to sound.
