06 motif

HackerRank for GTM.

Candidates solve real cases with AI, and you see every decision they make. It's a simulation — closer to a game than a test.

10 The bet

AI unleashes the top 0.1%.

You're betting:

  • That AI disruption makes it viable for small teams to do things 100x faster and better.
  • That I can iterate on this 20x faster than I could have three years ago.
  • That I can pivot 20x faster than I could have three years ago.

"There's a betting pool for the first year there's a one-person, billion-dollar company. Unimaginable without AI — and now it will happen."

— Sam Altman, OpenAI
