Outship

Outship is a technical screening platform for hiring software engineers in an era when candidates work with AI coding agents. Instead of algorithm puzzles, candidates complete real engineering tasks inside an isolated Linux virtual machine running VS Code, with Claude Code, OpenAI Codex or another coding agent available, and the platform records every prompt, edit, terminal command and decision along the way. It is built for engineering teams and hiring managers who want to tell an engineer who directs AI well from one who accepts whatever the agent produces. Assignments can be imported from an existing GitHub repository or written from scratch. Outship's own AI then analyzes each session against an evaluation rubric, scoring how the candidate researched the architecture, oriented themselves in the codebase, communicated with the agent, caught hallucinations and maintained code quality. The platform integrates with GitHub, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex AI and Azure for model access, and with applicant tracking systems including Ashby, Greenhouse and Workday. Pricing is not published. Outship asks prospective customers to book a demo for commercial terms.
