Ashby vs Codility
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ashby and Codility — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Ashby vs Codility: at a glance
What is Ashby?
Ashby keeps widening admin controls, now letting dashboards leave as CSV, not just PDF.
Ashby's recent releases are admin-facing workflow controls: configurable approval context, a policy for pending feedback at stage changes, interviewer-defined Recruiting Blocks, Offer Packet Templates and fiscal-year settings with time zones and start- or end-year labels. The latest change lets dashboard exports produce CSV, or CSV plus PDF, instead of PDF only.
What is Codility?
Codility rebuilds technical assessment around the AI-era engineer
Codility has reoriented its technical-assessment platform around AI on two fronts: measuring how candidates work with AI (an AI Copilot inside interviews, an AI Readiness assessment framework) and establishing authority on evaluating AI-generated code (the COMPASS benchmark). Recent posts also cover the defensive side — detecting AI-assisted cheating and holding to SIOP validity standards.

Ashby
6.3HR
Ashby keeps widening admin controls, now letting dashboards leave as CSV, not just PDF.
◆ Current state
Ashby's recent releases are admin-facing workflow controls: configurable approval context, a policy for pending feedback at stage changes, interviewer-defined Recruiting Blocks, Offer Packet Templates and fiscal-year settings with time zones and start- or end-year labels. The latest change lets dashboard exports produce CSV, or CSV plus PDF, instead of PDF only.
◆ Where it's heading
Ashby is making each step of the hiring workflow configurable and repeatable, and the last two releases push that into reporting: fiscal-year boundaries are now set by admins, and dashboard data can now leave as raw rows that feed spreadsheets and other BI tools rather than a static document.
◆ Prediction
Expect more reporting and export controls, such as scheduled or API-driven exports, alongside further offer and approval templates. The entries don't show what the next AI-facing release will be.

Codility rebuilds technical assessment around the AI-era engineer
◆ Current state
Codility has reoriented its technical-assessment platform around AI on two fronts: measuring how candidates work with AI (an AI Copilot inside interviews, an AI Readiness assessment framework) and establishing authority on evaluating AI-generated code (the COMPASS benchmark). Recent posts also cover the defensive side — detecting AI-assisted cheating and holding to SIOP validity standards.
◆ Where it's heading
The company is shifting from testing raw coding skill toward measuring AI-era engineering skill, betting that judgment about AI collaboration and code quality is the durable value as raw code generation commoditizes. COMPASS doubles as research credibility and a positioning moat.
◆ Prediction
Expect AI Copilot and AI-readiness assessments to move from blog and research framing into packaged product offerings, and COMPASS to expand its problem set or get repositioned as a buyer-facing tool for comparing models.
