Our Mission
To create the global standard for measuring human engineering skill in an AI-native world.
The Future of Coding is Direction, Not Typing.
We believe frameworks like LeetCode and HackerRank are testing for a world that no longer exists. Memorizing sorting algorithms isn't the bottleneck anymore.
The bottleneck is context, orchestration, and verification. It's the ability to take a vague problem and guide a suite of AI agents to a robust solution.
Batonship exists to validate these new skills, giving developers a way to prove their worth and companies a way to hire with confidence.
The Shift
- Syntax Mastery→System Design
- Typing Speed→Verification Speed
- Isolated Algorithms→Holistic Orchestration
Our Values
Process Over Outcome
A lucky guess isn't a skill. We value the repeatable process that leads to success, even if the final output isn't perfect.
Radical Transparency
We tell candidates exactly what we measure. Real skill doesn't need to be hidden behind 'gotcha' questions.
Realism First
If you don't do it on the job, we shouldn't test it. No whiteboards. No disabled internet. Just real work.
The standard is being set now.
