Workera Advances AI Skills With New Platform, Leadership

Workera

Workera, the leading AI-powered skills intelligence platform, is redefining how organizations prepare their workforce for the AI era. With more than 100 million skills verified to date—including a sharp focus on artificial intelligence capabilities—Workera is shaping the future of AI-readiness standards across global enterprises. This includes the strategic appointment of Taylor Sullivan as Head of Global Assessments, alongside the rollout of advanced enterprise-grade features in Sage, the company’s AI mentor agent engineered to validate and upskill AI competencies at scale.

Fueled by soaring demand for AI capabilities, Workera has achieved close to 100% year-over-year revenue growth and welcomed new high-profile clients such as BCG, Eli Lilly, and Reliance Industries Limited. This momentum reflects the growing emphasis on validated skills, as 89% of executives now consider verified competencies a top priority in hiring—especially as AI adoption intensifies. Yet, conventional skill evaluation methods continue to lag behind. According to Workera’s State of Skills Intelligence Report, 69% of learning and development (L&D) leaders cite difficulty in measuring AI skills due to a lack of trustworthy, verified insights.

Sullivan brings deep expertise in high-stakes assessments and technical evaluation, having previously led mission-critical assessment development at Codility and for key government sectors. Her arrival strengthens Workera’s capability to deliver sophisticated AI skill assessments tailored to today’s evolving workforce needs.

“Companies need to move beyond basic assessments and truly understand their workforce’s AI capabilities,” said Kian Katanforoosh, CEO of Workera. “We’re establishing the new standard for AI skills intelligence, enabling companies to effortlessly track, measure, and develop the right AI competencies, ensuring they’re prepared for the future.”

Advancing AI Skill Verification and Upskilling with Sage

Workera’s enhanced Sage platform enables business leaders to deploy precise AI skills assessments aligned to real-world job functions. Clients report over 50% faster AI skill development compared to traditional learning approaches. These customized assessments incorporate scenario-based challenges and interactive exercises—far exceeding outdated testing models.

The Sage Mentor feature delivers personalized, AI-powered coaching to guide employees through their skill development journey, addressing gaps and deepening expertise. Meanwhile, Sage Insights offers real-time analytics, equipping enterprises with the tools to monitor progress, identify critical needs, and adapt learning strategies in an ever-evolving digital landscape.

Empowering the Future Workforce Through Verified AI Intelligence

Workera solves core enterprise challenges by enabling organizations to measure AI skills with verified data, align upskilling strategies with business goals, and provide employees with clear, actionable learning pathways. As AI becomes integral to every function, 88% of non-technical workers are projected to require AI training within the next three years—underscoring the urgency for accurate skill intelligence.

Unlike platforms that rely on self-reported data, Workera delivers AI-verified skill tracking for both technical and non-technical roles, ensuring a higher degree of reliability. Sage Mentor’s coaching engine reinforces personalized learning with recommendations grounded in real skill proficiency, promoting true long-term mastery. Business-aligned upskilling ensures AI development efforts directly support company outcomes, maximizing ROI.

Recognized Leadership and Measurable Impact

With over 10 million AI-related skills verified for Fortune 500 organizations, Workera continues to set the benchmark in AI skills intelligence. Its recognition by TIME, Fast Company, GSV 150, and industry analyst Josh Bersin affirms the platform’s leadership in transforming workforce development through verified data and AI-driven insights.

“A data-driven approach to AI skill development, like Workera‘s, is essential for AI adoption. Organizations that connect verified AI skills data with their systems will make better workforce decisions and improve ROI on AI transformation,” said Gina Smith, PhD, Research Director, IT Skills for Digital Business at IDC.
