A CV or a quiz won't tell you who can fix production when it breaks. Your candidates solve a real cloud incident, you get a clear report.
Private beta · no commitment
- 12+companies in the private beta
- 150missions completed by candidates
- 300 hof engineering time saved during the beta

The difference
Why not one more quiz or interview?
| Today | With a CodeReaal mission | |
|---|---|---|
| The CV | Tells a story. Nothing lets you check what's behind it. | The candidate proves it on a real incident, and you assess dozens at once. |
| The quiz or take-home test | AI passes it for them, and you can't see how. | AI is allowed and visible: every exchange, and what they achieve without help. |
| The technical interview | Your engineers spend hours on it, for every candidate. | They only step in at the end, to validate the finalists. |

“Recently I took an online technical test where I wasn't allowed to use the internet. I didn't do it. I followed the rules.”

Questions
What people ask us before they start.
Another question? We reply within one business day.
Ask a question01Can the candidate use AI?
Yes, just like at work. The built-in assistant answers throughout the mission. Every exchange is classified, and the report shows what the candidate achieved unaided. AI never costs them points: it becomes visible.

02Do I need to be technical to read the report?
No. The report opens with one plain sentence: what the candidate achieved, and what's missing. The technical detail stays there for your tech lead.
Sarah recovers every lost order. 9 of 14 checks, with 64 points earned unaided.
03What is the mission like for the candidate?
They get a link and fix a real incident in the AWS console, from their browser. Nothing to install, no quiz. A mission takes 15 minutes to 1 h 45, and they're notified by email as soon as you decide.
04What if they get help?
The whole session is recorded: you replay their screen minute by minute, with every AI exchange. The checks verify the result on the environment itself, not on a statement.

05Which technologies can you assess?
Today, missions run on AWS: Lambda, SQS, EventBridge, S3, IAM… More environments will follow during the beta, based on the roles our clients hire for.
06What happens to the data?
Your notes and advice stay internal: the candidate never sees them. A report is shared through a code-protected link, with an expiry date, revocable at any time. The video is deleted automatically at the end of its retention period.
