What we measure

24 measures. One consistent engine.

No extra tests and no questionnaires. Every measure comes from what candidates actually say in their interview.

Competencies

The Great Eight competency framework: how candidates lead, collaborate, analyze, and get things done.

  • Leading & Deciding
  • Supporting & Cooperating
  • Interacting & Presenting
  • Analyzing & Interpreting
  • Creating & Conceptualizing
  • Organizing & Executing
  • Adapting & Coping
  • Enterprising & Performing

Personality

Big Five–based personality measures linked to workplace behavior and communication style.

  • Openness
  • Conscientiousness
  • Extraversion
  • Agreeableness
  • Empathy
  • Expression of emotion

Motivation & drive

What energizes candidates and how they sustain effort over time.

  • Enthusiasm
  • Proactiveness
  • Grit
  • Resilience
  • Sustained dedication
  • Self-determination
  • Delayed gratification
  • Certainty
Developer experience

Built for engineers and their security reviews.

Keys

Simple, secure authentication

Organization-owned API keys, shown once and stored only as a secure hash. Create and revoke keys yourself in the developer portal.

Docs

OpenAPI reference

A complete OpenAPI 3.1 reference and guides for every endpoint, available in the developer portal and as a downloadable spec.

Usage

Usage you can see

Usage dashboards by endpoint, standard rate-limit headers on every response, and request IDs for easy troubleshooting.

Versioning

Versioned and reproducible

Every response includes the engine version that produced it. Scores never change underneath you without a new version.

Data

Minimal data retention

Transcript and job description text isn’t stored by default and is never written to logs. Candidate text is never sent to a large language model.

Teams

Built for teams

Invite your team to the developer portal with owner, admin, and member roles and single sign-on.

Why the TSAI Assessment

Hiring AI you can explain and defend.

Consistent

Same answer. Same score. Every time.

Our scoring is deterministic and version-controlled. Unlike generative AI, it never gives two different results for the same interview.

Science-backed

Built on decades of hiring science

Grounded in validated I/O psychology frameworks, including the Great Eight competencies and Big Five–based personality measures, and validated against tens of thousands of interviews.

Defensible

Designed for scrutiny

Glass-box language analysis, a transparent methodology, and a validation report with adverse-impact analysis by Dr. Michael A. Campion. Your team makes every hiring decision.
