AI makes every candidate look like they know what they're doing.
See who actually does.
Saffron replaces technical interviews with real AI-assisted work trials. See exactly how candidates prompt, build, debug, and ship — on your actual codebase.
Technical interviews don't predict job performance.
You already know this.
Engineers use AI daily, interviews ban it
You're testing a world that no longer exists. Every engineer ships with AI — your interview should reflect that.
Puzzles test memorization, not judgment
Inverting binary trees says nothing about how someone architects a feature or debugs a production issue.
Take-homes are unstructured and unscalable
No standardization, no visibility into process, no way to compare candidates fairly.
Work trials produce best signal but are expensive
The best predictor of job performance is a work sample — Saffron makes it scalable.
Three steps to real signal.
From repo to results in minutes, not weeks.
Create Assessment
Point Saffron at your GitHub repo. Configure AI access levels, time limits, and evaluation criteria.
Candidates Build
Each candidate gets a sandboxed IDE with integrated Claude Code. They work on your actual codebase — building, prompting, debugging.
Review With Data
See full conversation logs, code attribution, AI reliance scores, and time breakdowns. Know exactly how they built it.

Where moonlight meets machine.
Everything you need to evaluate how candidates actually build.
Managed Sandbox IDE
Isolated cloud environment pre-loaded with your codebase and dependencies.
Integrated Claude Code
Candidates use AI the way they would on the job — monitored and measured.
Full Conversation Logs
Every prompt, response, and edit captured for complete process visibility.
Code Origin Tracking
Know which lines were human-written, AI-generated, or AI-modified.
AI Review Score
Automated scoring based on code quality, AI usage patterns, and problem-solving approach.
Configurable AI Constraints
Control what AI can access — full autonomy, restricted prompts, or no AI at all.
Time-Boxed Sessions
Set precise time limits. Candidates see a countdown; you see how they allocate time.
One-Click Invitations
Generate a unique link, send it to a candidate, and they're building in minutes.

See how your candidates actually build.
