Hire for AI fluency, not memory.

Pactum gives candidates a real work task and lets them use any AI tool to complete it, then hands you every prompt, every decision, and an automatic score. No more trivia. No more six-hour take-homes.

Trusted by early teams at Series A–C companies

How it works

Three steps. Zero ambiguity.

01

Company creates a task

Define a real piece of work: a data analysis, a marketing brief, a code review, a strategy memo. Not a brain teaser. Actual work.

02

Candidate completes it using AI

Inside a secure, sandboxed environment, the candidate uses ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, whatever they prefer. Their workflow is recorded in full.

03

You see everything. Instantly.

Every prompt, every refinement, every decision. Plus an automatic rubric score. You hire on judgment, not performance anxiety.

The problem

LeetCode tests the wrong thing. Take-homes waste everyone's time.

The hiring stack hasn't changed since 2010. The work has. AI-native teams need AI-native screening.
