What is Codility?
Codility is rebuilding technical assessment around the reality that candidates use AI.
Codility has reoriented the entire product around AI: COMPASS, a research benchmark that scores AI-generated code on correctness, efficiency, and quality against 393,150 human baseline submissions; AI Copilot, an OpenAI-powered VSCode environment inside interviews; AI cheating detection; and a customer-facing AI Readiness Assessment framework. Each launch reinforces the next — the benchmark validates the assessments, the assessments justify the tooling.
What is Tanda?
Award compliance is becoming the product, with SCHADS automation landing alongside roster and timesheet flexibility.
Tanda is operating two parallel tracks. The first is deeper award-compliance automation — SCHADS variations, Road Transport and Distribution template improvements, and a new rule-engine option for shifts where the majority of hours fall in a defined window. The second is broader workforce coverage — automatic timesheet generation for salaried staff, AU/NZ rollout of the new Availability feature, projected leave balance calculations, and small roster UI cleanups.

Codility is rebuilding technical assessment around the reality that candidates use AI.
◆ Current state
Codility has reoriented the entire product around AI: COMPASS, a research benchmark that scores AI-generated code on correctness, efficiency, and quality against 393,150 human baseline submissions; AI Copilot, an OpenAI-powered VSCode environment inside interviews; AI cheating detection; and a customer-facing AI Readiness Assessment framework. Each launch reinforces the next — the benchmark validates the assessments, the assessments justify the tooling.
◆ Where it's heading
The strategy is to make Codility the authoritative arbiter of AI-era coding skill, not a holdout against AI tools. That's a sharp pivot from the historical 'lock-down environment' posture of pre-LLM assessment companies. By owning the evaluation framework (COMPASS) and the in-interview tooling (Copilot) and the integrity layer (AI detection), Codility is trying to be the standard rather than the safe choice.
◆ Prediction
Expect COMPASS scores to become a customer-facing report element — comparing candidates by their AI-augmented output, not just raw coding. Continued integration with major AI coding tools is likely; a Claude or Gemini support announcement would be the next obvious move beyond OpenAI.

Award compliance is becoming the product, with SCHADS automation landing alongside roster and timesheet flexibility.
◆ Current state
Tanda is operating two parallel tracks. The first is deeper award-compliance automation — SCHADS variations, Road Transport and Distribution template improvements, and a new rule-engine option for shifts where the majority of hours fall in a defined window. The second is broader workforce coverage — automatic timesheet generation for salaried staff, AU/NZ rollout of the new Availability feature, projected leave balance calculations, and small roster UI cleanups.
◆ Where it's heading
The pitch is shifting from rostering tool to compliance engine for regulated AU/NZ industries. Each Fair Work Commission determination is being absorbed into Tanda's managed templates with automation primitives like Sleepover Schedule and On Call Schedule, and the rule engine itself is gaining configuration surface to handle edge cases that previously needed manual setup.
◆ Prediction
Expect more managed award templates to receive the same treatment Road Transport just got, and additional rule engine primitives — particularly around the kinds of shiftwork patterns SCHADS and Road Transport share. Salaried-staff timesheets suggest the platform is also testing how far it can extend past the hourly-only origin.
