Turn a flood of applications into a shortlist you can prove.
Invite everyone you are considering to the same real task, by email, CSV or a single link. Each one works it in an isolated cloud environment, the results rank themselves, and the shortlist you present is built on work, not on a reading of a CV.

What is at stake
The shortlist is the whole product
A cabinet does not sell a search. It sells the few names at the end of it, and a client remembers whether they held up.
What you are paid for
The shortlist, not the search
The client never sees the hundreds you filtered. They see the few you put in front of them, and they judge you on those.
What wins the next mandate
Being right last time
A cabinet whose shortlists convert gets the next brief, and gets it before the competition is even called.
What it costs to be wrong
The mandate
One shortlist the client cannot use, and the search you were half-way through is the last one they send you.
Live in an afternoon
Three steps from the job post to a shortlist you can defend, with no screening calls.

A shortlist built on work, not assertion
Invite every candidate to the same real task and let the scoring do the first cut. What you hand the client is a short list, each name backed by a report scored per skill, with the session evidence behind it.
- Invite by email, CSV or a single link, and everyone sits the same task
- One scored report per candidate, so your shortlist arrives already argued
- A campaign can be shared with the client's organisation, with a cap on the credits it can use
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.
