SkillsEngine provides skills-based analytics, labor-market insights and career-alignment tools for work and learning communities. Its AI-driven tool turns job posts, resumes, curriculum and other text into skills profiles. Users can create profiles for jobs, curriculum, credentials and individuals, then share and edit them with partners or subject-matter experts. The platform supports surveys to gather expert feedback and validate skill requirements at scale, and includes a curated library of profiles and skill sets with templates. Labor-market insights incorporate U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data. APIs are available in beta with custom organization accounts; endpoints support text translation, skills searches, template discovery, profile-skill retrieval and listing an organization’s custom profiles. A free personal account allows one profile. Basic Team costs 999.00 USD per month; API add-ons cost 499.00 USD per month or 999.00 USD per month in addition to Basic Team. SkillsEngine is web-based and has no mobile application.
