    Files, links, a written note and a walkthrough video.

The 8x shortlist

Example candidate. Scores are rubric totals out of 100.

Watch how they use AI, not how they interview.

An interview can't tell a 2x engineer from a 100x one. Their session log can. Scrub through one.

Example session, from the same billing export assignment.

Your part takes one call and one decision.

  1. 1 of 3

    Tell us the role.

    One call. We write the role page and the assignment with you, in plain Markdown you can read and change.

  2. 2 of 3

    We run the round.

    The brief goes out the moment someone applies. We collect the work and score every submission. You read none of the CVs.

  3. 3 of 3

    You decide.

    Your team opens the shortlist in the 8x workspace. Request an interview, approve, or pass. Every decision is kept.

What founders
ask us first.

Engineering, design, marketing and creative, and operations. The same four areas 8x hires for itself.

We draft it from your role and you approve it before anyone sees it. Each role has one brief, sometimes with source files attached.

The coding-agent session logs and the repository's architecture are scored against rubrics out of 100, and a reviewer scores the walkthrough video. You see each score and where the candidate ranked.

Yes. Invite them by email. They sign in with the invited address and see your company's shortlist, and nobody else's.

Pricing is set case by case, depending on the role. You get a number on the call, before anything starts.
