How To Use AI Career Index

A step-by-step guide for individuals and companies.

Everything you need to take the assessment, register, unlock your report, and act on the result. Two paths below: one for individuals taking the AI Career Snapshot, one for HR leaders and exec teams running a workforce reading. Read on the page or download the printable PDF.

Register or sign in to download the individuals guide. The companies guide also requires a company admin account.

What it is

A 10-minute structured assessment. A deterministic structural reading. A defensible plan.

AI Career Index measures the structural position of a role in the AI economy. The same scoring engine runs at two levels: an individual report at $49 one-time, and a workforce reading from $499 with a Workforce Dashboard and a 10-module AI Implementation Plan.

Because the engine is rule-based and deterministic, the same structured inputs always produce the same number. No personality test, no machine-learning inference, no opaque black box. Every reading is defensible to a manager, a board, or yourself.

Re-assessment when your structural position has materially changed (new role, promotion) is on the roadmap; for now contact support if you need a fresh reading.
For Companies

Run a workforce reading.

From purchase to a 10-module AI Implementation Plan. 2 to 4 weeks for most orgs.

01
Take the assessment first as the prospective admin.
Every company workspace starts with one person who will own it. That person registers an account, takes the free 10-minute AI Career Index assessment, and receives their own individual reading. Same path any individual user follows.
02
Get in touch to provision the workspace.
Email support@aicareerindex.com with the company name, the expected employee count, and the registered email of the person who will be the first company admin. Pricing tiers: Starter $499 for up to 25 employees, Growth $1,499 for up to 100, Enterprise custom.
03
Workspace provisioning and admin assignment.
A platform admin creates the company workspace and assigns the registered user as the first company admin. Usually within one business day of the request.
04
Configure teams, departments, and aggregation cuts.
The company admin signs in to the workspace, creates teams and departments, and sets the role-band tags used to slice the workforce dashboard.
05
Send invites and run the privacy comms.
From the workspace, the company admin sends private invite links to employees. Each employee registers, takes the same 10-minute assessment, and receives their own private reading. Leadership cannot see individual results. Use the comms templates so employees understand what stays private; that drives the 70 to 90 percent participation rates seen at sponsored roll-outs.
06
Open the Workforce Dashboard.
Workforce AI Readiness Index, exposure by team, archetype mix, authority distribution, structural density of high-leverage roles.
07
Review the Implementation Plan.
10 modules: maturity stage, capability gaps, 90-day roadmap, pilot selection, governance, KPI tree, investment tiering, risk register, comms plan, review template.
08
Run it through governance and exec review.
Ships with a structured review template designed for exec or board sign-off. Aligns HR, Finance, and Operations on pilots, KPIs, and investment tier.
Reading your score

Four anchored data points and a sequenced plan.

Every individual reading returns the same four anchors. The numbers don't move unless your role does. The plan moves with the numbers.

01
AI Career Index (0-1000)
Single deterministic score on a 1000-point scale showing where your role sits in the AI economy. Same inputs always produce the same number.
02
Authority Band
Where your role sits on the Execution-to-Authority spectrum. Higher bands are layers AI cannot replace. Plan shows the moves that shift you upward.
03
Risk Band
Low, Moderate, or High exposure to AI-driven compression in the next 24 months. Tells you what to defend, migrate from, and deepen.
04
Cohort Rank and 24M Projection
Percentile rank inside your role's cohort plus a deterministic 24-month projection of where the score lands if you act, and if you don't.
The five dimensions

What the score actually measures.

Every assessment scores the same five structural dimensions. Each maps to an area of the AI economy you can act on.

01 Strategic Clarity
Whether you have a clear structural path forward in the AI economy. Clarity is the prerequisite for the rest.
02 AI Adaptability
How quickly you can absorb and leverage AI tools. Not whether you use ChatGPT, but how AI compounds your output.
03 Income Leverage
Your ability to grow earnings relative to AI-driven wage compression. High leverage decouples income from headcount.
04 Skill Resilience
The durability of your skills against automation substitution. Resilient skills compound; substitutable skills get paid less.
05 Authority
Where you sit on the Execution-to-Authority spectrum. Authority is the layer AI absorbs last and changes what work pays last.
