PRODICTA
The evidence layer underneath UK hiring decisions

We tell you if a placement will fail
before you make it.

Then we help you protect the fee.

Real job scenarios, not personality tests. Evidence, not guesswork. When something goes wrong you know at week one, not month four.

Every failed placement costs you the fee, the relationship, and the rebate. PRODICTA stops that before it starts.

Different buyers. Same proof engine.

Stop losing fees to bad placements.

PRODICTA tells you if a placement will fail before you make it. Give your clients evidence not CVs.

Placement Survival Score

You call the client at week 3, not the other way round. A live score tells you exactly which placements are at risk before your client picks up the phone.

Day 1 Highlight Reel

Your competitors send CVs. You send a video showing how the candidate actually performs.

Accountability Trail

Every risk documented. Every recommendation tracked. Your fees protected.

Most hiring decisions are based on opinion.

PRODICTA gives you proof.

The problem

What a CV and an interview will never tell you

Whether they will actually succeed in the role.

£30,000-£50,000+
Cost of a bad hire (REC benchmarks)

REC reports a typical bad hire costs between £30,000 and £50,000. Mid-management failures can exceed £100,000. CIPD data shows average cost per hire is £6,000 for general roles and £19,000 for manager-level positions. Even small improvements in hiring accuracy reduce cost, protect revenue, and improve retention.

0.18
Predictive value of years of experience

Schmidt and Hunter’s meta-analysis (1998; updated 2016) shows years of experience has weak predictive power for job performance. Education level scores even lower at 0.10. CVs and interviews tell you what someone has done, not how they will perform. PRODICTA measures observed behaviour in realistic job scenarios.

Jan 2027
Unfair dismissal from day one

The Employment Rights Act extends unfair dismissal protection and removes the compensation cap. Getting hiring right is no longer optional.

We test pressure-fit, not interview polish.

Interviews test how someone talks about pressure. PRODICTA tests whether they can actually hold up under it.

How it works

From job description to hiring decision in minutes

No personality tests. No theory. Real work scenarios that show you exactly who will succeed.

Traditional process
From job description to hiring decision.
1

Paste your job description

PRODICTA reads every detail. The company, the targets, the team, the pressure points. Then asks you 3 to 4 sharp questions about what really matters in this role. Whether you are a recruiter briefing a client vacancy, an HR team filling an internal role, or a hiring manager replacing a leaver, PRODICTA builds an assessment tailored to exactly what success looks like in this specific position.

2

Choose your assessment depth

Speed-Fit for urgent hires and high-volume roles. Depth-Fit for most positions. Strategy-Fit for senior or high-stakes hires. PRODICTA recommends the right depth based on the role level. Recruiters filling multiple roles get speed. Employers hiring for critical positions get depth. Every scenario is built from the actual job description, not a generic template.

3

Candidates respond to real workplace scenarios

100% mobile optimised

No personality tests. No tick-box questionnaires. Candidates face the exact situations they would face in their first 90 days. A difficult stakeholder. Competing deadlines. A team that needs managing. Whether you are assessing a customer service advisor or a finance director, the scenarios match the role. How they respond tells you more than any interview ever could.

4

Get a report that changes how you hire

Everything you need to make the right call. A clear score. An honest assessment of how they work under pressure. Where the risks are. What their first 90 days will actually look like. The questions to ask before you commit. And a plan to set them up for success from day one. One report. Clear, specific, and backed by evidence from real work.

Strategy-Fit

Strategy-Fit assessments for senior hires use multiple extended workplace scenarios that probe strategic decision making, stakeholder reasoning, and judgement under ambiguity.

How PRODICTA Works

The PRODICTA Placement Intelligence Model

Four layers that turn a candidate response into an evidence-based hiring decision.

1

Behavioural Simulation

Candidates complete role-specific work simulations built from your job description. Every scenario reflects a real situation they will face in their first 90 days.

2

Anchored Scoring

Responses are scored against predefined behavioural anchors, not AI opinion. Each dimension has a fixed standard for high, medium, and low performance.

3

Role Calibration

Scores are weighted for your specific role family. A warehouse operative and a finance director are not measured against the same model.

4

Placement Intelligence

Every insight is traceable to something the candidate actually did. Watch-outs come with evidence. Strengths come with proof. The verdict comes with a confidence level.

This is not AI guesswork. This is evidence-based placement intelligence.

Features

Test how they work. Not how they interview.

Designed for UK employers, HR teams, and recruitment agencies.

How they handle the hard days

Find out how candidates handle conflicting priorities, difficult conversations, and tight deadlines. The number one predictor of whether someone will pass probation.

Are their answers genuine?

Know whether candidates wrote their own answers or had help. Timing analysis, consistency checks, and authenticity scoring give you confidence before you invest further.

Scored across the skills that matter

Four skill dimensions scored with detailed evidence. Every strength and concern is traced back to what the candidate actually wrote.

Compare Candidates

See your candidates side by side. Who scores highest, who handles pressure best, who is the strongest fit for this specific role.

Equality Act Compliant

Scenario-based assessments that are fair, objective, and anonymous. No candidate is penalised for spelling, grammar, or writing style. Documented and defensible.

A plan for their first six weeks

Every report includes a structured onboarding plan tailored to this candidate's specific gaps. Hand it to the line manager on day one.

Mobile Optimised

Candidates complete assessments on any device. No app to download. Perfect for sectors where candidates are rarely at a desk, from care workers to site managers.

Every level, every role

Built for every role, not just senior hires.

Customer Service Advisor
Care Worker
Accounts Assistant
Sales Executive
Operations Manager
Finance Director

Every role gets scenarios built from the actual job description. A care worker gets a safeguarding scenario. A receptionist gets a multitasking scenario. A director gets a strategic scenario. PRODICTA adapts to the role, not the other way around.

84%
of recruitment leaders expect sales growth in 2026

The market is growing. The smart agencies are investing.

84% of recruitment leaders expect growth in 2026. The agencies that win will not be the ones sending the most CVs. They will be the ones sending the best evidence. One PRODICTA assessment gives your client more insight than three rounds of interviews.

What people say

Trusted by hiring professionals

We used to rely on gut feel and interviews. PRODICTA showed us things in 45 minutes that took three months of probation to find out the hard way. It is now part of every hire we make.

Sarah Mitchell
HR Director
Manufacturing, 200 employees

Our clients ask for PRODICTA reports now. It sets us apart from every other agency they use. We send candidates with evidence, not just a CV and a cover letter.

James Cooper
Managing Director
Cooper Recruitment

I was sceptical about AI hiring tools. This is different. The assessment actually reflects what the job is like. Candidates tell us it feels relevant, not generic.

January 2027

The 6-Month Trap.

From January 2027, every employee in the UK has unfair dismissal protection after just 6 months. No qualifying period. No compensation cap. For employers, every hire is a legal and financial risk from day one.

A bad hire costs you recruitment fees, training, lost productivity, team morale, and now an uncapped tribunal claim.

For recruitment agencies, every placement you make carries that same risk. When a hire fails, your client blames you. Your fee is at risk. Your reputation takes the hit. And from 2027, your clients will demand proof that the candidates you sent were properly assessed.

PRODICTA exists because this problem is about to get much worse. The employers who prepare now will be protected. The agencies who offer this now will win the clients. Everyone else will be scrambling in January 2027.

Employment Rights Act 2025

The Employment Rights Act 2025 changes everything

From January 2027
Employees will have unfair dismissal protection from their first day of employment, with no qualifying period.
No compensation cap
The upper limit on unfair dismissal compensation will be removed, exposing employers to significantly larger awards.
Probationary periods tightened
You'll still be able to dismiss during a defined probation period, but only with a clear, fair process. You'll need to evidence it.

You would not sign a contract without legal advice. Why would you make a hire without PRODICTA?
