• Litmus Application

  Coding-assessment platform for engineering hiring: it generates a realistic task from the team's repository and tools, candidates build it in their own environment with AI tools while Litmus tracks files, commits and prompts, then a deterministic harness and LLM graders produce a shareable report; connects to Ashby, Greenhouse and Lever; priced by custom contract.
