Mirror your hiring with the actual work

  1. Give candidates realistic tasks in a working codebase. Use the models and skills your team relies on every day.

  2. Watch candidates plan, build and review with AI. Evaluate the process, not just the output.

  3. Integrity isn’t about whether you use AI or not. It’s about following the rules. We flag suspicious behavior like using unauthorized tools or external devices or taking help from your “friend”

  4. Every score follows a clear rubric, links back to evidence and is regularly audited for bias across race, ethnicity and gender. The controls are designed to support EEOC compliance.
