Everything you wanted to know, in one place

TheQuizMaster is an AI-powered technical assessment platform that helps companies evaluate developer skills through job-specific coding challenges, code review tasks, voice Q&A, and video introductions. Paste a job description and our AI generates a tailored assessment in under 60 seconds — testing the skills the role actually needs, not generic LeetCode puzzles.

Sign up, paste your job description, and our AI generates a customized assessment in under 60 seconds. Review the questions, adjust time limits, and invite candidates by email. No technical setup, no question-bank curation, no scheduling. Most teams send their first invite the same day they sign up.

No. Every new account starts with a free 14-day pilot — 20 credits (candidate evaluations) included, no credit card required. You only enter payment details if you decide to continue after the pilot ends.

Fourteen languages and runtimes: JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java, C++, C#, Go, Kotlin, Swift, Ruby, R, Rust, SQL, and React. Each assessment can mix multiple languages — useful for full-stack roles or when a candidate needs to demonstrate frontend and backend competencies in one sitting.

Candidates receive a secure email link with a 7-day expiry. They start the assessment when ready (within the validity window), inside our browser-based code editor — full syntax highlighting, autocompletion, and real test execution against hidden test cases. No software to install. Mobile-aware, but desktop-recommended for coding tasks.

Each candidate gets an overall score plus per-block breakdowns: which test cases passed, code quality signals, time spent, and (for voice/video blocks) AI-graded transcripts with structure and clarity scores. You can shortlist, reject, park, or hire from the dashboard, leave private team notes, and compare candidates side-by-side.

Yes. After generation, you can edit any question, add new ones, remove ones that don't fit, swap difficulty, or adjust time limits per block. You can also build assessments entirely from scratch using our challenge library or write your own custom challenges.

Multiple layers: server-side timestamps that prevent time manipulation, single-use assessment tokens that can't be replayed, focus-loss detection (we record when candidates switch tabs), code similarity checks across submissions, and an integrity score on each result. Voice and video blocks also act as authenticity signals — they're hard to fake.

Most assessments run 45–90 minutes, depending on role seniority and how many blocks you include. Junior roles average 45 minutes (2–3 blocks). Senior roles with code review and voice Q&A average 75 minutes. You set the time limit per block and the overall cap.

Our AI parses your job description to extract required skills, frameworks, and seniority level. It then composes a balanced assessment by drawing from our challenge library and generating new questions where coverage is thin — sized to the role, weighted by skill importance. You always review and approve before any candidate sees it.

Yes. Candidate code runs in isolated sandboxes with strict CPU, memory, and network limits — through JDoodle for compiled languages and an in-browser engine (sql.js, Sandpack) for SQL and React. No execution touches our infrastructure or other candidates' workspaces. Sandbox lifetime is limited to a single test run.

Not yet — ATS integrations (Greenhouse, Lever, Workable) and a public REST API are actively in development. If you need either, contact us to join the early-access list and we'll let you know as soon as they ship.

Five block types: coding challenges (with hidden test cases), code review (find bugs in real code), multiple-choice quizzes, voice Q&A (spoken answers, AI-graded), and video intros (timed candidate recordings, auto-transcribed). Mix any combination in a single assessment.

Starter is $79/month (annual billing, or $99 month-to-month) — 50 credits per month, 5 team members. Professional is $199/month (annual, or $249 month-to-month) — 100 credits per month, 15 team members. Enterprise is custom-priced for unlimited usage and a founder-led onboarding. Full breakdown on the pricing page.

A credit is one candidate evaluation. You paste a job description, our AI builds a graded technical assessment in about 60 seconds, and you send it to one candidate. That whole flow — assessment generation, sending, sandboxed code execution, AI scoring of code and voice answers, the candidate report — counts as one credit. You can reuse an assessment across as many candidates as your credit balance allows.

Yes, anytime. Upgrades take effect immediately, prorated against your current billing cycle. Downgrades take effect at the next renewal — you keep full access until then. No fees, no awkward calls with a sales rep.

Yes. Startups under 50 employees and registered non-profits get 30% off annual plans. Y Combinator, Techstars, and similar accelerator alumni get an additional 6 months free on Starter. Email team@thequizmaster.io with proof of eligibility.

Yes. Cancel from your billing settings — your access continues through the end of the paid period, then drops to the free pilot tier. We don't prorate refunds for partial months, but your assessment data stays accessible read-only for 90 days after cancellation.

Yes. TLS 1.3 in transit, AES-256 at rest, all infrastructure hosted on SOC 2 Type II compliant providers (Firebase / Google Cloud, Vercel, Railway). Tenant isolation enforced at the database level via Firestore security rules. Quarterly internal audits, annual third-party penetration testing on Professional+ plans.

Yes. We provide a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) on request, support data subject access requests within 30 days, and let candidates delete their data themselves. We do not sell personal data, ever. EU customers can request EU data residency on Enterprise plans.

By default, data is stored in US-based Google Cloud regions (Firebase). Enterprise customers can request EU (Frankfurt) or other regional residency at contract time. Backups are encrypted, retained 30 days, and never leave your chosen region.

TheQuizMaster generates assessments from your specific job description rather than picking from a generic question bank. We bundle voice Q&A and video intros for soft-skill signal in the same assessment. We're also priced for small and mid-market teams — most competitors target enterprise and price accordingly.

CodeSignal is built around a fixed library of standardized tests with a proprietary scoring score. We give you full control to edit, swap, or write your own challenges, and our AI generates them tailored to your role rather than pulling from a fixed bank. Different philosophy: standardization vs. relevance.

LeetCode-style problems test memorized algorithm tricks, not real engineering. They're biased toward candidates with time to grind, and they don't correlate well with on-the-job performance. Job-specific assessments — building features, reviewing real code, explaining decisions — predict performance much more reliably.
