## The problem, and the fix.

### The problem

Traditional assessment tools rely on sandboxed IDEs, browser extensions or DOM manipulation that candidates can bypass. Anti-cheating mechanisms are easily circumvented through developer tools, virtual machines or proxy assistance.

### The solution

Pixel-Native reads what is on the candidate's screen, the way a reviewer would, instead of relying on browser extensions or the page code. Signs of outside help are flagged for your team to review.

## How it works.

1. **Captures what is on the candidate's screen during the assessment**: Candidates work in their normal environment, with nothing to install.
2. **Neural OCR identifies UI elements and behavioral patterns**: The system reads what is on screen to recognize tools, code and behavior.
3. **Intent recognition tracks reasoning and problem-solving approach**: It follows how the candidate works through the problem, not just the final answer.
4. **Anti-leak protection ensures assessment integrity**: Signs of outside help are flagged for your team to review.

### What you get

- Anti-leak protection against unauthorized assistance
- Automated reasoning audit trails
- Real-time intent tracking during assessments

## Fits your workflow.

Pixel-Native OS runs transparently during any technical assessment or interview. Candidates work in their natural environment while the system captures behavioral signals that indicate genuine skill versus external assistance.

### Who it's for

- Technical hiring teams running remote assessments
- Teams worried about outside help in assessments
- High-volume assessment programs
- Engineering managers who want to see how candidates work

### Use cases

- Run coding assessments in a real environment
- See how a candidate reached an answer
- Flag signs of unauthorized assistance
- Keep assessments trustworthy at scale

### Benefits

- Catch cheating without invasive software
- Assess candidates in real-world coding environments
- Capture authentic problem-solving behavior
- Maintain assessment integrity at scale

## Before and after.

- **Locked-down test tools**: Sandboxes and extensions that candidates can still get around.

## Questions, answered

### How does Pixel-Native work without SDK installation?

Pixel-Native uses edge-native vision to watch screen pixels directly, eliminating the need for browser extensions or SDK dependencies.

### Can candidates cheat the system?

Signs of outside help are flagged for your team to review.

### What about candidate privacy?

Screen activity is captured only during the assessment, used to check session integrity, shown to your team for review and kept under the same retention and deletion rules as other candidate data. Only behavioral signals relevant to assessment are captured and analyzed.
