Eightfold is a talent intelligence platform using deep learning for talent matching — trained on billions of talent data points to understand the skills, experiences, and trajectories that lead to success in specific roles. Unlike keyword-based applicant tracking, Eightfold's AI understands the skills implicit in candidates' experiences, enabling matching that surfaces qualified candidates who wouldn't be found by ATS keyword filters. Career Site AI provides personalised job recommendations to site visitors — showing each visitor the roles most relevant to their background and skills. Internal Mobility AI matches current employees to open roles, projects, and mentoring based on skills alignment and career interests — enabling organisations to fill roles from internal talent first. Talent Insights provides workforce planning analytics — skills gap analysis, attrition risk prediction, and succession planning intelligence for HR leadership. With customers including Airbus, Bayer, and Chevron, Eightfold validates across aerospace, pharmaceutical, and energy for enterprise workforce AI.
Eightfold AI runs as ml platform software built around text and data workflows. Users typically start with a prompt, upload, or connected data source, and the underlying model handles the heavy lifting before returning a result you can refine or export. It's available on web and api.
