At a glance: TestGorilla vs. Coderbyte

TestGorilla helps you assess the whole candidate with over 350 validated tests across programming, cognitive ability, personality, situational judgment, and job-specific skills. Built-in AI video interviews and resume scoring add even more clarity, before you ever schedule a call. Coding tests run in an integrated IDE with playback and anti-cheating built in.

Coderbyte specializes in technical screening, offering over 1,000 coding challenges in 30+ languages, plus live coding and playback. It supports up to 3 async video questions per test, but lacks structured assessments for cognitive ability, personality, or soft skills. Resume screening and talent sourcing aren’t included.

TestGorilla ensures test integrity with full-screen detection, webcam snapshots, IP tracking, randomized question banks, and copy-paste disabling. Assessments are monitored with behavioral flags, and test content is hidden from employers to prevent coaching and ensure fairness.

Coderbyte provides strong protections for technical tasks, including plagiarism detection, Google search detection, tab-switch monitoring, copy-paste detection, and webcam verification. Code sessions are recorded with event playback, helping teams review behavior during technical evaluations. These features are focused on coding assessments and are not available across other test types.

TestGorilla offers flexible customization across assessments and the candidate experience. Hiring teams can add custom questions in video, text, or file formats, adjust scoring logic, and personalize workflows with branded intro and outro videos. The platform is mobile-optimized, requires no candidate login, and supports 12+ languages for global accessibility.

Coderbyte is optimized for developer hiring, with tools to customize coding challenges, build notebooks, and run live interviews in a collaborative IDE. The platform supports company branding and allows free-form questions, including video prompts, but it does not include structured tests for soft skills, culture fit, or personality.

TestGorilla offers flexible, usage-based pricing that scales with your hiring volume. All paid plans include access to assessments, sourcing, AI resume scoring, and AI video interviews. A free-forever plan is available, including 5 skills tests and 5 custom questions. You also get access to over 2 million skills-tested candidates through TestGorilla Sourcing.

Coderbyte uses a subscription model, starting at $199/month for unlimited assessments and candidates. A pay-per-candidate option is also available. The platform does not offer a free plan and does not support sourcing or AI-based screening.

Why our users love us

TestGorilla is super easy to use. It's something I didn't realize I needed. I liked the quick responses from surveys sent out to potential hires. Depending upon what I send them, I can get a pretty good idea from their answers about whether they fit the job.
