Terms of service
The terms that apply to companies using The Skills Checker, including the AI addendum.
The service
The Skills Checker generates skills assessments, collects written answers from participants, and grades those answers using an AI model against written criteria. Each assessment can stay open to participants for up to 60 days after it is published.

Accounts and credits
You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping your credentials secure.
Creating an assessment is free. One credit is used for each candidate when they start an assessment: on a shared link, when they enter their name and email; on an email invitation, when they confirm their details and start. A credit must be available for every candidate before they can be invited or start. A used credit is not returned if the candidate does not finish.
AI addendum
Because The Skills Checker produces automated scoring about job applicants, using it commits you to the following. These are obligations, not recommendations.
- You will not use a The Skills Checker score or verdict as the sole basis for any decision producing legal or similarly significant effects on a person.
- A person will review the underlying answers, not just the score, before any rejection or adverse outcome.
- You will give participants whatever notice their jurisdiction requires about automated assessment, including any local rules on AI in hiring.
- You will offer an alternative route to any participant who requests one, including as a disability accommodation, without disadvantaging their application.
- You will not upload special-category data, and will not use the product for purposes we have not assessed with you.
We publish how scoring works, what it excludes, and its known limitations, so that a reviewer can weigh a score properly rather than treat it as a verdict.
Limits of the service
A score measures what a participant wrote in response to specific questions under a time limit. It is evidence for a hiring conversation, not a measurement of a person.
Scores from different assessments are not comparable with each other, and language models produce some run-to-run variance. We state both openly rather than disclaiming responsibility for how output is used.
Data processing
Where we process personal data on your behalf, our data processing agreement applies. It sets out our obligations as processor under Article 28, describes exactly what is processed, and lists the security measures in place — with the sub-processor list incorporated by reference.
