Give your engineers their afternoons back.
Candidates work a real task on their own machine, and the result is scored automatically as each session ends. The first round happens without a panel, so your team only meets the people who already proved they can do the work.

What is at stake
Every first round is an afternoon your team did not ship
The cost of a bad hiring process is not a line in a budget. It is the feature that slipped because two seniors were in a room instead.
What it costs
Delivery, not budget
The hour your senior spends on a candidate who was never going to pass is an hour that came straight out of the sprint.
What it repeats
Every open role
The load does not scale down. Every empty seat pulls the same people out of the same work, again.
What changes
Who they meet
Your engineers should meet the third candidate, the one worth an hour, not the first two who were not.
Live in an afternoon
Three steps from the job post to a shortlist you can defend, with no screening calls.

The first round runs without anyone from your team
Each candidate gets an isolated cloud environment with a real task in it. The system is scored on what it actually does at the end, automatically, so nobody on your side has to sit and watch.
- Scored automatically on the end state of a real system, not on an answer
- The same task for everyone on a role, so the shortlist is ranked when you open it
- An isolated cloud environment per candidate, torn down when the session ends
The questions we get
Straight answers on how the tests, the scoring and the credits actually work.
What is a Scalyz lab, exactly?
A real virtual machine with a real mission, not a quiz. The candidate works with the same tools they'd use on the job, and the session is recorded so you can review the evidence later.
Who scores it?
Automatically. The checks run against what the candidate delivered, and you get a report broken down skill by skill, so no one on your team grades a thing by hand.
Can they cheat with AI?
A chatbot can suggest commands, but it can't run a live system for the candidate. The mission has to be done on the machine itself, and any cheating signals come with context, so you can judge them yourself.
What do I pay?
In credits: one per candidate. A credit is reserved when you send an invitation and released if it expires unused. You pay per candidate tested, never per user.
Can I bring my own exercise?
Yes. Upload your files as a .zip, rename the mission to match your role, and run it yourself for one credit first. What you tested is exactly what candidates get.
What is it like for candidates?
On their own time. They start when it suits them, work with real tools on a real machine, and finish in one sitting. It runs in English and French.
