Explore Our Cognitive AI Vetting Process | Axiom Cortex™

Axiom Cortex™ is our proprietary Cognitive AI engine that moves beyond what a candidate knows to *how they think*. It assesses problem-solving, architectural reasoning, and collaborative aptitude, providing a predictive model of a candidate's ability to succeed on your team.

Is your hiring process a slow, expensive, and unreliable black box?

The Problem

Traditional hiring relies on resume keywords and simplistic coding challenges, which are poor predictors of on-the-job success. This leads to a long time-to-hire, high recruitment costs, and a constant risk of making a bad hire that drains team productivity.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We've productized the science of talent evaluation. Our platform provides a level of predictability and quality assurance that traditional staff augmentation simply cannot match, reducing your time-to-offer to just 9 days and ensuring a 90% project retention rate at six months.

Proof: Reduce time-to-hire by 80% and increase 90-day success rate to over 97%.

How We Measure Seniority: From L1 to L4 Certified Expert

We don't just match keywords; we measure cognitive ability. Our Axiom Cortex™ engine evaluates every candidate against a 44-point psychometric and technical framework to precisely map their seniority and predict their success on your team. This data-driven approach allows for transparent, value-based pricing.

Our Technical Analysis for Axiom Cortex™

Axiom Cortex™ uses a series of simulated, production-style scenarios to evaluate a candidate's cognitive abilities. We don't ask trivia questions; we create situations that test their ability to handle ambiguity, manage trade-offs, and design resilient systems. The engine analyzes over 44 neuropsychometric factors to build a detailed cognitive profile, giving you unprecedented insight into a candidate's problem-solving style and potential for growth. This data-driven approach is how we consistently identify the top 1% of engineering talent.
