One role in, five verified engineers out
DeveloperHiring runs the whole technical hiring pipeline for each role you post. Every candidate goes through the same five stages and is scored the same way, so you compare evidence, not resumes.

Your rate limiter stores hits in memory. What happens when the service runs on three instances?
Candidate
Each instance would count separately, so a customer could send three times the limit. I would move the counter to a shared store with an expiry.
AI interviewer
Two of your tests failed on the window reset. Walk me through what you would change.

- Weights you control. A senior backend role weighs system design higher than a junior one.
- Blind review. Name, photo and age stay hidden from scoring until the shortlist.

Know the code is really theirs
Tests are only useful if the work is genuine. Every submission gets integrity signals, and the AI interview asks about the candidate's own code, which a copied answer cannot explain.

Signals inform your team. They never reject a candidate on their own.
Paste events, tab switches, keystroke playback, code similarity across every candidate of the role and the likelihood of AI generated code. On Scale you can add an identity check that compares a document with a selfie. Learn how the coding assessment and the AI technical interview work together.

Compare it with an agency fee
Agencies typically charge 20 to 25 percent of the first year salary for each developer hire. Set your own numbers and see the difference for one year.
The agency figure uses 20 percent, the low end of the usual range. The plan figure is the yearly price of Startup, which covers up to 24 new roles a year.
| Way to hire | Cost for one year |
|---|---|
| Recruiting agency at 20 percent | $72,000 |
| DeveloperHiring Startup, billed yearly | $1,188 |
| Difference | $70,812 |
Startup covers 2 new roles a month, so 24 a year. Your team still does the final interviews. DeveloperHiring replaces the sourcing, screening and testing that an agency or your engineers do today.
What you get compared with the usual options
Most tools cover one stage of technical hiring. DeveloperHiring runs every stage per role for one flat fee.
| Stage | DeveloperHiring | Job board | Coding test tool | Agency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sourcing from public profiles | Yes | No | No | Yes |
| CV and code scored per skill | Yes | No | No | Partly |
| Coding test with hidden tests | Yes | No | Yes | Rarely |
| AI interview about own code | Yes | No | No | No |
| Integrity and similarity checks | Yes | No | Yes | No |
| Ranked top five shortlist | Yes | No | No | Yes |
| Pricing | Flat monthly | Per post | Per invite or seat | 20 to 25 percent of salary |
We already use a coding test.
Keep it if you like. DeveloperHiring adds sourcing, screening, the AI interview and the ranking around the test, so engineers only meet the top five.
AI should not decide who we hire.
It does not. AI scores and explains, your team decides. Candidates can ask for a human review at any time.
Our stack is unusual.
Pick from 30+ languages, set the skill weights, and on Team and Scale write your own tasks and questions.
Hire by stack and by country
Each guide lists the skills we test, sample screening questions and a sample coding task for that stack.
