Everything you need

AI-first, end-to-end

From AI-generated questions to AI-graded coding challenges - every step is smarter with Dextes.

AI Throughout

3 ways AI works inside the builder

Generate questions by topic with difficulty and count controls. Paste or upload a JD and AI writes the full assessment - title, role, skills, questions, duration, pass score. Then AI auto-grades every written and subjective answer on submission.

4 Assessment Types

Functional, Psychometric, Coding, Cognitive

Run technical MCQ tests, Big Five personality evaluations, coding-only assessments with test cases, or cognitive aptitude tests - each with its own workflow, scoring engine, and analytics.

Live Coding IDE

Real code, real test cases, 7 languages

Candidates write code in a full Monaco editor. Submissions run against your test cases via Judge0. Supports JavaScript, Python, Java, C++, TypeScript, Go, and C#.

Proctoring

Built-in integrity monitoring

Track tab switches, window focus loss, copy-paste events, and fullscreen exits. Set a violation threshold and attempts that cross it are flagged for your review - candidates are never cut off mid-test. Every event is logged with timestamps.

Reports & Leaderboard

Rankings, heatmaps, and hire decisions

Score distributions, per-question accuracy, a ranked leaderboard with percentiles, a skill-tag heatmap across the cohort, and Ready/Stay/PIP outcome badges so every decision has data behind it.

Employee Growth

Track and grow skills across your team

Assign assessments to individuals, departments, or whole teams. Visualize skill growth over time with a live heatmap. Identify skill gaps by department before they become problems.

How it works

Up and running in minutes

No long onboarding. No complicated setup. Your first assessment is live in under 10 minutes.

01

Build your assessment

Choose a type - technical, psychometric, coding, or cognitive. Use the assessment builder to add questions, set a time limit, configure pass scores, and preview exactly what candidates will see.

02

Invite candidates

Add candidates one by one, import a CSV, or share a public link for self-registration. Each candidate gets a unique, tamper-proof test link - no account required on their end.

03

AI grades it, you decide

AI auto-grades coding and written answers the moment a candidate submits. Review scores, AI reasoning, proctoring flags, and a ranked leaderboard - then shortlist with a Ready/Stay/PIP outcome.

Assessment Types

One platform, four ways to assess

Most assessment tools only do multiple-choice. Dextes supports four distinct assessment types, each with its own scoring engine, candidate experience, and analytics - so you can evaluate any dimension of a hire or team member.

  • Functional - MCQ, multi-select, coding, and written questions from your question bank
  • Psychometric - Big Five personality framework, 15 Likert-scale statements, trait profile output
  • Coding Test - live IDE with test cases, multi-language support, manual review for complex answers
  • Cognitive - shuffled MCQ and aptitude questions for reasoning and IQ-style tests

AI grading result

9/10

Good use of recursion. Edge cases handled correctly. Could improve variable naming.

AI-Powered Builder

AI inside every step of building

The assessment builder has three distinct AI modes: generate questions by topic, generate a complete assessment from a job description (text or PDF), and auto-grade every written answer the moment a candidate submits. Most platforms have one of these. Dextes has all three.

  • Multiple choice, multi-select, coding, and written question types
  • Live coding IDE - JavaScript, Python, Java, C++, TypeScript, Go, C#
  • AI: generate questions by topic - pick type, difficulty, and count
  • AI: paste or upload a JD (PDF supported) and get a full assessment - title, role, skills, questions, duration, and pass score in seconds
  • AI: auto-grades every written and subjective answer on submission with a score and reasoning
  • Manual review UI shows AI score suggestion alongside the candidate answer - accept or override
  • All AI-generated questions automatically tagged "ai-generated" in your question bank

Analytics

Data that actually drives decisions

Go beyond a single score. See how every candidate performed on every question, where they lost time, how they compare to the cohort, and whether they are Ready, on a Performance Improvement Plan, or somewhere in between.

  • Score distribution and per-question accuracy
  • Ranked leaderboard with medals, percentiles, and vs-average delta
  • Ready / Stay / PIP outcome badge per candidate
  • Skill-tag heatmap across the whole cohort
  • Department skill gap analysis and 6-month trends
  • Proctoring activity timeline with event breakdown
  • One-click CSV export and printable candidate reports

Testimonials

Loved by hiring teams

"Dextes cut our time-to-hire by 40%. We used to spend weeks phone-screening candidates - now we send an assessment and have a ranked shortlist by end of day."

PM

Priya Menon

Head of Engineering, TechFlow

"The skill heatmap alone is worth it. I can see at a glance which teams need upskilling and in what areas. We used to guess. Now we have data."

JO

James Okafor

L&D Manager, Meridian

"I tried 4 assessment platforms. Dextes is the only one that doesn't feel like it was built in 2015. The candidate experience is clean, the builder is intuitive, the analytics are actually useful."
