What You Get for Free
Four tools, fully functional, no account required. Browse as long as you want — we are not going to blur the results or gate them behind a signup form.
Browse 1,000+ occupations with salary data, growth projections, and required skills from O*NET and BLS. Filter by industry, sort by growth rate or median wage, and see exactly what each career demands.
Search 1,400+ professional skills organized by category. See which careers require each skill, how important it is across occupations, and which skills are most in-demand across the labor market.
See the skill overlap between any two careers. Find out which of your existing skills transfer and which new ones you would need to build. Real data, not guesswork.
In-depth guides on skill gap analysis, digital badges, skills passports, AI tutoring, and more. Educational content backed by real platform features and federal labor data.

Why We Give This Away
Three reasons, none of them complicated:
Trust is earned, not demanded
You should be able to see the quality of our data and tools before deciding whether to pay. The Career Explorer and Skills Directory use the same O*NET and BLS data that powers the entire platform. If that data impresses you, the paid features will too.
The data is publicly available
O*NET and BLS data is funded by the U.S. Department of Labor and freely available. We add value by organizing it, connecting it to a learning platform, and making it searchable — but the raw data belongs to everyone. Gating it behind a paywall would be wrong.
Exploration drives conversion
People who explore careers and see their skill gaps are more likely to invest in closing those gaps. Free tools create informed customers — people who sign up because they understand exactly what they need, not because of a marketing pitch.

Free tools let you explore the entire career and skills landscape without creating an account or entering a credit card. When you are ready to move beyond browsing — to actually learn, earn verified credentials, and build a skills passport — the paid plans are there. But there is no pressure and no timeline.
