Hire for how people work with AI — not despite it.

Codesolara drops every candidate into a real environment with a real AI pair — Solara — then hands you a scorecard that shows how they actually think.

// the moment a whiteboard could never show you
Everyone your candidate competes against already uses AI. The old tests were built to catch it. We were built for a world where everyone has it.
// how it works
01
Send one link
Pick a task, invite a candidate. No account for them, nothing to install — it opens in the browser.
02
They build, with Solara
A realistic task in a real editor and terminal, an AI pair on tap. The way your team actually ships.
03
You get the scorecard
The session becomes a structured, evidence-backed read on the candidate. Automatically — no panel review.
// what you get
01 —
Real work, not whiteboards
A realistic task in a real editor, terminal and file tree — with Solara on tap.
02 —
The scorecard is the product
Every attempt becomes an evidence-backed read on the candidate. Automatically.
03 —
See the thinking
Judgment, iteration, and whether they catch AI when it's wrong — the signal that predicts performance.
04 —
Objective where it counts
Anchored in what actually works — so a score holds up in a hiring committee, not just a hunch.
05 —
Explainable & defensible
Every score cites its evidence. Humans stay in the loop and can override anything.
06 —
Free for the whole team
Unlimited seats. Invite every reviewer. Pay only when a candidate actually interviews.

// questions
Isn't letting candidates use AI just cheating?+
The opposite. Pretending AI doesn't exist is the cheat. We measure the skill that matters now: getting great work out of AI — and catching it when it's wrong.
How is this different from HackerRank or Codility?+
Those were built to catch AI use. We were built for a world where everyone has it. Different question, different signal.
So what are you actually measuring?+
How someone works: the quality of their judgment, how they iterate, and whether the result holds up. You get a clear read, with the evidence behind it.
Do candidates need an account?+
No. They get a link, do the interview in the browser, and you get the result. Nothing to install.
What counts as an attempt?+
One candidate starting one interview. If they drop off — closed tab, lost wifi — they rejoin the same session right where they left it, at no extra charge. You're billed once, per candidate.
When can we start?+
We're onboarding new teams now. Request access below and we'll get you set up — usually the same week.
The way you hire engineers
just changed.
A handful of teams already hire this way. There's room for a few more.
