Coderbyte stands out for pricing that does not count candidates. Pro costs $1,999 a year and covers unlimited candidates and admins, with screening, assessments and interviews, the full question library, custom questions, a native IDE and VS Code, automated grading, cheating detection and AI features with unlimited credits. Coderbyte says the Pro price stays locked for as long as you auto-renew. Teams that hire in bursts can use the Monthly plan at $99 for 20 invites, with $20 per extra invite and rollover of unused invites, or buy 60 invites for $799. Assessments can include algorithmic challenges, multi-file projects and take-home work. The cost rises with add-ons: API, ATS and MCP integrations, SSO and SCIM, branding, premium analytics and proctoring, and personality testing are each $1,499 a year, or $4,496 for the bundle. A team that needs an ATS connection should price Pro plus that add-on against HackerRank Pro.
