Karat Inc. is a Seattle-based technical interviewing platform that conducts standardized software engineering interviews for enterprise hiring teams through its community of trained Interview Engineers. Karat exposes a GraphQL API, hosted per-customer at https://{subdomain}.karat.io/api/v1/graphql, that lets talent and ATS systems programmatically manage roles and groups, look up users, invite candidates into assessments, retrieve candidacy statuses, code-challenge and interview results, and bulk-update candidacy dispositions. The API uses Bearer token authentication, Relay-style cursor pagination, and ships an example Python SDK and a Postman collection. Karat is SOC 2 Type II certified and certified under the EU-US, UK-US and Swiss-US Data Privacy Frameworks.
