Non-commercial entry in Anthropic's Built with Opus 4.7 hackathon (April 2026): adaptive interviews with live cross-turn reasoning and a takeaway for both sides. Kept as submitted.

Core trick

Generates each interview question from full session history in a live cross-turn loop, returning a takeaway to both parties.

> **Cross-turn reasoning, rendered live. Both sides leave with something.**

Goal-directed, adaptive interviews at scale. A Host (subject-matter expert) sets interview objectives; the platform runs every conversation live — generating each question from the full session state, producing structured insight *during* the session rather than in an overnight report, and, at session close, handing the participant a reflective takeaway worth keeping.

Built on **three of the five workflow patterns** named in Anthropic's [*Building Effective Agents*](https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/building-effective-agents) — **Orchestrator-Workers**, **Parallelization**, and **Routing** — running together on every turn (see [Architecture](#architecture)).

→ **[MAKING_OF.md](MAKING_OF.md)** — architecture decisions, day-by-day build log, calibrated claims, what Opus 4.7 enables that smaller models don't.
