The standard does not move.

Turnaround
The verification gap.
The problem, the session, the proof — how Orcred closes the gap between doing the work and being believed.
01
The Problem
Everyone has a project.
Someone spent six months building something real. Someone else spent a weekend prompting ChatGPT. Right now their portfolios look identical — and that gap is costing real builders their careers.

The Session
45 minutes. One engineer. Your work.
Not a quiz. Not a take-home test. A real conversation about the project you built, every decision you made, every tradeoff you chose. The ones who built it for real talk about it differently.

The Proof
Now there's proof.
An Orcred Score. A verified credential backed by a senior engineer's sign-off. Something you carry into any room — a real engineer reviewed this work. It passed.
Orcred score.
Not a grade. A signal. Four dimensions that actually measure understanding.
Technical Depth
35%
Did they build something that works — and do they know why it works? The highest-weighted dimension because it is the hardest to fake.
Communication
25%
Can they walk a room through their decisions without notes? Clarity of thought under live questioning separates builders from memorisers.
Reproducibility
20%
Is the work clean enough that someone else could pick it up tomorrow? A project only you can run is a liability.
Originality
20%
Did they think, or did they follow? Genuine problem solving versus tutorial assembly — the difference always shows.
Not everyone passes. That's the point.
The verification process.
01
Submit Your Project
Your project, a five-minute Loom walkthrough, three written build decisions, and one honest account of what broke. Everything a reviewer needs to prepare — before the call begins.
02
Live Socratic Review
45 minutes on camera with a senior engineer who has read every line of your submission. Questions are generated specifically for your work. There is no question bank and no way to coach for it.
03
Your Score & Credential
A score out of 100 across four dimensions, written feedback on each, and — if you pass — your verified Orcred credential. Delivered within 24 hours of your review.

How Orcred compares to other credentials
GitHub shows commits. LeetCode shows patterns. Certificates show completions. None of them answer the one question that matters: does this person understand what they built?
What it provesWhat it misses
GitHub
You pushed code.
Whether you understand any of it.
LeetCode
You memorised patterns.
Whether you can engineer a real system.
Certificates
You finished the course.
Whether you can apply any of it.
Orcred
You understand what you built.
Nothing. The gap is closed.
One conversation changes the signal permanently.
Get Verified
If you built something real
and you understand it — come in.

One submission. One review. A credential that holds. The standard does not move.
