Key outcomes

for tech and engineering teams

Evaluate technical skills in depth

Use it in any round, first screen or later. Candidates debug and fix a deployed system, and you see how they execute it, find the problem, and verify the fix.

Catch cheating, fake candidates, and profiles

Screen, prompts, and camera are fully recorded. Plus, identity checks, face liveness, and location signals flag anyone who isn't who they claim to be.

See HOW candidates actually use AI

How they engage with AI, prompt trail, output validation, prompt construction skills, guided AI, and much more.

Customize Tasks for your role & scenarios

Upload JDs or your own problem and get a Task built around it. Candidates are evaluated on the work they would do on your team.

Solve your top challenges with technical assessments

Technical interviews and live coding challenges

Utkrusht solutions

30-45-min interview rounds to learn candidates can't write a simple function

Candidates complete a Task first. You see the best 5-10 shortlist. Then decide and move forward

Coding pads check whether someone can write and compile a function under pressure

Candidates work in a deployed codebase with their own editor and AI tools, as they would on the job

Easier to cheat than ever. Cheating tools are everywhere. Catching it only tells you who to disqualify

Strong anti-proctoring feature set. Plus, candidates debug and fix a running system with AI allowed. The recording and prompt trail show who did the thinking

The browser IDE is nothing like the editor and tools developers use daily

Candidates use their own laptop, IDE and AI agents, connected to a live environment. Exactly like they will when on the job

3 to 5 rounds per candidate, huge time and effort spent by the interview panel, and calendars rarely line up

Tasks run without an interviewer, at any hour, and then reviewed in minutes

Features that

make Utkrusht different than others

Evaluation method

Live production environments

Watch each candidate fix real servers, clusters and databases, with no interviewer in the room.

Your interviewer's valuable time is saved to only talk to high-calibre candidates already shown proof-of-skill.

In-depth candidate reports

Candidate attempt analysis reports

Review a 45-minute attempt in minutes, with every evidence linked to the moment in the video.

Deepfakes and anti-cheating

Proctoring and identity signals

Confirm the person who took the Task is the same person who joins, with features like VPN and proxy detection, face liveness, selfie verification, etc.

Easily catch candidates who attempt cheating when taking Tasks with sharp proctoring features already built-in.

Non-leakable Tasks

Tasks built-in for 350+ skills and new Tasks generated every week

Hire for all your software engineering and developer roles (even seniors) at once without building or resetting a single task.

Also included niche roles like embedded, cybersecurity, and much more.

Why Utkrusht?

Other assessment and candidate evaluation tools

How Utkrusht takes a different approach?

100+ applications per role. Humanly impossible to sit, shortlist, and evaluate each

Every resume auto-scored on evidence from resume, LinkedIn and GitHub. Search the whole pipeline in 1-click

AI-written resumes tailored to the job description. Keyword scores get gamed

Fit scores separate demonstrated skill from a bare mention, with the evidence shown

High test scores, bad interviews. Candidates can't explain their own code

Candidates debug and fix a running system with AI allowed. The recording and prompt trail show who did the thinking

Preset question banks. Candidates arrive already prepared

New tasks every week, leaked tasks removed, role-matched to your stack

Take-home assignments create slow feedback, high review effort and candidate drop-off.

Short, byte-sized focused Tasks produce comparable evidence quickly while keeping the candidate experience smooth

  • "Utkrusht has been pivotal for us. Their assessment tests help us find the candidates with required technical skills and their detailed analysis improved our time spent on interviewing candidates significantly. We now realise how much time we used to waste on screening"

    Jaydeep Roman

    VP of Products, Wybrid

  • "Relying solely on recruiter agencies not only took 2-3 months on average, but we still ended up interviewing candidates who couldn't deliver desired code. With Utkrusht, we shortlisted 3 strong candidates in just a week, and every single one of them could build robust code!"

    Harshal Bhakta

    Co-founder, Cital

  • “We’ve hired developers who looked great on paper but collapsed in real projects. Utkrusht's platform changed that. Now we don’t guess, we see how they code and work under real conditions. The quality of our hires has gone way up, and we’re no longer wasting time on interviews that go nowhere.”

  • "AI-based assessments have helped us speed up our recruitment process while improving the quality of hiring.

    The detailed technical evaluations make it easier to make quick and confident decisions. What really stands out is the team’s personalized support, quick response. Overall, it has been a great experience working with this innovative tool and the amazing people at Utkrusht."

    Arun Bhimani

    VP of Technology, InTech Solutions

  • "We evaluated at least 15 other skill assessment tools which are out there. They are good, but they test candidates on algorithm questions and theory knowledge. None showed us how someone would actually perform on our team. With Utkrusht, I watched candidates work through the same debugging and optimization problems my engineers face daily. That's when I knew who to hire."

    Husna Kouser

    Director of HR, Skills Agency

  • "We were spending 15 hours a week screening resumes and doing first-round calls. Most candidates couldn't even explain their own projects and things they wrote on their resume.. Utkrusht's 20-minute real-job simulation assessments cut through that. We now just know before interviewing candidates they have shown strong technical skills."

    Vedang Manerikar

    Founder, Unravel Tech

  • "My senior developers were spending 20+ hours a week doing code pairing sessions and reviewing take-home assignments. With Utkrusht, All candidates complete the same “build something” assessment, the platform stack ranks them automatically, and I get a clear top 10. So we now only interview candidates who've already shown clear proof-of-skill."

Why Utkrusht?

Other technical interview and live coding tools

How Utkrusht takes a different approach?

A shared code pad where the candidate writes a function from a prompt

Deployed servers, clusters and databases. Candidates debug and fix a system that is already running, like on the job

An engineer has to be present for every session

Runs with or without an interviewer. Same Task, same report either way, your preference

Interviewers take their own notes and score that can be biased, effort heavy, and time consuming

Every session is recorded, chaptered and scored against a fixed rubric shown to you

System design happens on a whiteboard and is judged by whoever is in the room

Design Tasks capture the diagram, the document and the candidate's assumptions for anyone to review

FAQs

Does this replace our interview rounds?

We've seen companies replacing the first HR-screening round, coding round, and for many teams the system design round. Keep one or two human rounds after it, since we recommend having some human interaction is a must in the hiring process.

Can it be used for system design interviews?

Yes. Candidates redesign a given architecture against stated targets and submit a diagram and design document. An interviewer can review it afterwards.

If candidates can use AI, how do you know who is good?

Two candidates with the same AI tool reach very different results. The report scores HOW they used AI, how specific their prompts were, whether they checked the AI's output, and whether they verified the fix.

Cheating and fake candidates are rampant today. How is that handled?

We have built strong feature set that tackles each of these, like strict proctored sessions, proxy and VPN detection, face liveness and selfie verification run on every session, and new Tasks are added every week.

Will senior candidates agree to it?

We've seen our Tasks engagement is strongest for candidates with roughly 3 to 8 years of experience. Since ours are byte-sized 30-45 min Tasks and not lenghty coding tests or 24-48hour take-homes, candidates LOVE taking it.
