Item banks

Built for the actual job

A generic reasoning test measures a generic thing. Every bank here is grounded in one occupation and in what its postings asked for this quarter.

Where we ship

Twelve live banks, one bar.

Twelve shallow banks would have been easier to announce and worse to buy. Every live bank cleared the same author review before it shipped; a bank still in build is listed, marked, and disabled until it does.

Beyond code

The roles a coding test never reaches.

The AI-usage requirement is not concentrated in engineering. It is in the memo, the brief, the spec and the model — work whose failure mode is a confident, fluent, wrong paragraph that no test suite will ever catch.

Those roles have had no work-sample instrument at all. They got a conversation and a reference check. This is the first bank built for them.
