Developed specifically for accounting firms, the platform creates purpose-built assessments aligned to actual professional roles such as accounting, audit or tax. The questions, developed by CPAs to reflect actual job expectations, give case-based questions reflecting real client scenarios, documents and judgment calls, with different role- and level-based tracks for staff, senior, manager and specialist roles. The assessments draw from a large bank of randomized forms, which ensure no two candidates get the same test.
Users get results upon assessment submission, which include scorecard reports with an overall score and pass/fail benchmarks, as well as a topic-wise score analysis showing strengths and gaps by domain. The product is intended to support firms in their hiring, promotion and development planning, which is further facilitated by skill-based interpretation guides.

It will detect, for example, when the candidate’s face is not clearly visible on camera, if multiple people appear during the session, if the candidate copies and pastes something, if there are books or notes that are not permitted, if someone is using a phone for possible off-screen assistance, if someone is switching tabs or focusing out their window, or if they’re trying to use multiple screens.
