Cognitive scoring + AI code review + real repo tasks

Stop hiring coders.
Start hiring thinkers.

The only platform that scores how candidates think with AI and reviews the code they produce. Cognitive hexagon + output quality + AI attribution. Full picture, one evaluation.

The hiring problem nobody talks about

Every developer now uses AI coding tools. Leetcode scores mean nothing. Take-home projects get AI-generated. Live coding interviews test memorization, not thinking. Companies are spending $96K/year on AI tools per 200-person team with zero measurement of ROI.

AI levels the playing field

Anyone can generate working code. The differentiator is steering quality.

Resumes can't show this

How someone thinks with AI tools is invisible on paper.

Interviews miss it

45-minute whiteboard sessions test the wrong skills entirely.

4 Steps

How it works

Create a task. Candidate works with AI. We score cognition + code. You hire with confidence.

Step 01

Create a Task

Link a GitHub repo or pick from 16 template challenges. Define what you're looking for. Generate a shareable evaluation link.

naviklab — create task
Step 02

Candidate Works with AI

They open a Codespace, use their AI tools (Claude, Cursor, Copilot), and solve the challenge. Every cognitive signal is captured.

terminal — candidate session
Step 03

Dual Scoring

We analyze their cognitive patterns AND review their code output with AI agents. Full picture in one evaluation.

Step 04

Compare & Hire

Side-by-side profiles. Cognitive hexagons. Code review scores. AI attribution. Data-driven hiring decisions.

Cognitive Scoring
Research-backed

Six cognitive dimensions

Grounded in Bloom's Taxonomy, metacognition theory, and DeepMind's cognitive research. We score behavior patterns, not outputs.

Built to be un-gameable

We score the quality of cognitive behaviors, not their presence. “I considered 3 alternatives” with trivially similar options scores low. Length-normalized. Pattern-aware. Research-backed.
