Platform

One scoring model. Every job family. No guesswork.

Prelim builds the assessment, runs it, scores it on one defensible model across engineering, leadership, and non-IT — and returns a ranked shortlist your team can stand behind and explain.

How it works

A closed loop, not a point tool.

Every hire moves through the same four steps. Build once, reuse everywhere.

01

Build

Describe the role. Prelim generates a job-specific assessment across skill, cognition, and culture.

02

Assess

Candidates take a fair, adaptive test — proctored, accessible, and low-latency.

03

Score

Specialized assessors grade every response and flag inconsistency automatically.

04

Decide

A ranked skills matrix and verdict your team can explain and stand behind.

Capabilities

Everything the loop runs on.

Each capability feeds the same scoring model and reporting layer.

AI Test Builder

Turn a job description into a validated assessment in minutes.

60+ assessment types across every function, ready to compose.

Transparency

Explainable by design.

A score you can't defend is worse than no score. Every Prelim verdict traces back to specific evidence — the response, the rubric, and the benchmark — so hiring managers, candidates, and auditors all see why.

  • —Evidence-linked scores, not black-box numbers
  • —Percentile benchmarks against comparable roles
  • —Inconsistency and integrity flags surfaced for review
  • —Exportable, audit-ready candidate reports
88.9%
scoring accuracy vs. benchmark

Measured against expert human panels across 60+ assessment types.

FAQ

Platform questions.

How long does it take to launch an assessment?+

Most teams go from job description to live assessment the same day. The AI Test Builder does the first draft; you review and adjust before it goes out.

Does Prelim replace our ATS?+

No — it plugs into it. Scores, verdicts, and reports sync back into Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, or SAP so recruiters stay in their existing workflow.

Can we run Prelim inside our own cloud?+

Yes. Prelim deploys to cloud, a dedicated VPC, or fully on-prem, so candidate data never leaves your perimeter.
