Can remote interviews still be trusted?
We don’t think so.
The Problem
- Identity of the remote candidate cannot be verified.
- Candidates covertly use AI to cheat their way thru the interview.
- Deepfakes are on the rise and they are getting better every day.
The Result
- Wrong person gets hired. Then terminated. Hiring process restarts.
- Bad actors can now commit fraud from inside your company.
Talexios is the human verification layer for critical remote hires.
The cost of a bad hire is $50K to $100K+
The cost of a bad hire intent on committing fraud: Millions of dollars.
Remote hiring broke the trust layer. Identity fraud is rising, and current tools verify code, not people. Talexios is the human verification layer for critical technical hires.
The person I interviewed is not the person on the paycheck. Someone got past me — and I’ve interviewed thousands of people.

During video interviews, it is clear that the candidate is looking at a different screen, will pause for much too long after I ask a question, waiting for AI to generate an answer for them to give.

Marc Pavlopoulos
Founder, Talexios
I started my career in Silicon Valley in 1997. Since then, I helped build 7 VC backed startups.
In 2014, I saw that tech startups in the Valley had challenges finding and hiring top tier tech talent. So I founded Syndesus to supply remote tech talent from Canada.
When my US clients did not know how to legally employ remote workers in Canada, I built a Canadian Employer of Record service.
When my US clients were losing top tier tech talent due to expiring OPT (due to losing the H-1B lottery), I built a business to sponsor Canadian work visas for employ these immigrant tech workers in Canada.
In 2020, I saw that Canadian tech companies had trouble hiring tech workers domestically. So I founded Path to Canada to bring global immigrant tech workers into Canada.
In 2025, I saw a HUGE new problem in the market and among my customers:
Remote tech interviews are compromised: AI can script answers, finish coding tasks, and spoof identities—leaving hiring teams unsure who’s truly qualified and/or who is authenticated.
The result: bad hires, terminations, and restarted searches.
So I founded Talexios to solve this problem.
