About code.live
Replacing resume theater with verified developer scores
code.live is the developer score platform for the post-resume era. We turn public GitHub activity into a portable 0–1000 score with versioned methodology, so software developers can prove what they've shipped and recruiters can filter by verified skill instead of self-reported claims.
Why we built it
A single job opening now attracts thousands of applicants. Human review at that scale is impossible, and generated resumes have collapsed the hireability of the top of the funnel. At the same time, public GitHub data has become rich enough to support a rigorous, normalized developer ranking platform. code.live closes that gap: one score per developer, verified against the primary evidence, comparable across the world.
Our principles
- Versioned methodology. Every score is tied to a model release. You always know which formula produced your number.
- Confidence intervals. A developer score without a confidence number is a headline without a story. We ship both.
- Read-only access. We never store source code — only aggregated metrics. You can disconnect at any time.
- Public benchmarks. The leaderboard is free and open so developers can see the cohort they're competing with.
Who we serve
Four audiences sit at the center of code.live: software developers, recruiters and engineering leaders, open-source contributors, and tech students. Each gets a purpose- built surface — dashboards, search, leaderboards, and API — powered by the same underlying coding performance score.
