HackerRank launches AI interviewer Chakra
HackerRank, a platform for assessing and hiring developers, is making its AI interviewer, Chakra, generally available after a six-month beta. Chakra conducts interviews, observes candidates as they work, and evaluates their answers and problem-solving process. The AI agent combines recruiter, take-home, and follow-up interviews into one session, and includes an AI assistant that candidates can use. HackerRank reports that Chakra has conducted over 500,000 interviews during testing, with companies such as Snowflake, Snorkel, and Capgemini using it. The startup aims to measure signals like critical thinking and 'AI fluency' rather than just correct answers. HackerRank claims that giving candidates access to AI reduces suspicious activity, with flags 70-80% lower than in traditional assessments. The technology is designed to score candidates but leaves final hiring decisions to humans.
Shopify launches Canvas AI site builder
Shopify has introduced Canvas, a new AI-powered site builder that lets merchants create and customize online stores through chat with its AI agent, Sidekick. Canvas renders changes in real time, showing the actual code and enabling full interactivity testing across screen sizes. It presents the store as a cohesive visual workspace, allowing merchants to view, edit, and develop pages without deep coding knowledge. Sidekick can directly access theme files, make coordinated changes, and validate its own work, having already handled over 25 million theme changes in H1 2026. Initially, Canvas lacks support for third-party themes, app blocks, and translations, and is desktop-only, but Shopify plans to expand its capabilities. The tool will roll out gradually, with the existing editor remaining for now, and aims to make e-commerce more accessible to non-coders.
