Challenge

A distributed agency needed to vet a constant stream of contractors worldwide — manual screening couldn't keep up without dropping standards.

Approach

Automated real-world assessments with integrity checks let a small ops team maintain a consistent bar across a global contractor pool.

A dev agency lives or dies by the quality of its contractors — and a global pipeline means constant, high-volume vetting across time zones and skill levels.

The problem: scale vs. quality

Manual screening of a worldwide contractor stream forced a trade-off between speed and standards.

The shift: automated, AI-aware screening

Real-world assessments with built-in integrity checks let the team maintain a consistent bar at scale, with full evidence for borderline calls.

The outcome

Screening throughput rose 4×, the quality bar stayed consistent worldwide, and manual review fell 58%.
